“Honey, at my age if it feels good you do it. To hell with healthy.”
“Point made. What time do you want me here?” she asks.
“I’ll be here at eleven. I’ve got to clean out my old lady’s crawlspace before I come spray yours.”
“You’re going to be a busy man,” she laughs.
“Yeah, but one of those will be a hell of a lot more fun, and I won’t have to smell chemicals, just sweet woman.”
“That’s the horniest man this side of the ocean,” I mutter.
“Jealous?” Juniper asks.
“Why would I be jealous?”
“I’m just saying, he’s going home to his woman, not sitting alone at a bar on a Friday night, nursing a whiskey.”
“Nothing wrong with my parts. I just don’t happen to have a woman at home. Now, if you’d like to volunteer for the position for the night…”
“Not on your life, Sheriff. I bought that damn t-shirt and learned the hard way not to tangle with the law.”
“Now that’s a shame, Juniper.”
“You keep calling me Juniper and those working parts you’re bragging on will be in danger of permanent harm,” she says softly.
“You don’t want to do that,” I tell her, and I watch as her tongue darts out on her lip nervously as she looks into my eyes.
“Why not?”
“Because one day soon, Juniper Sellers, you’re going to like myworkingparts.”
“You are dreaming, Sheriff Kingston,” she responds, her gaze narrowing, and I know I’m pissing her off. The thing is, I like when I piss her off. Hell, I like everything when it comes to Juniper, except the fact she’s not warming my bed.
“We’ll see,” I tell her, enjoying our cat and mouse game.
“Do I look stupid to you, Sheriff? Because I promise you, I’m not.” Her voice drops down as she leans into me so I can hear her over the loud music and voices surrounding us.
“Never thought you were, Junie,” I tell her, and she flinches when I use her nickname.
“June. Only people I care about call me Junie.”
“You let me call you that once,” I remind her.
“I did, but you didn’t call me Junie when it mattered, did you, Sheriff Kingston?”
She walks away after that and fuck me if I don’t watch her ass sway as she goes, holding my glass so fucking tight it’s a wonder it doesn’t shatter in my hand.
Yeah, I definitely fucked up with Juniper Sellers.
I watch her until I finish my drink. Juniper never comes back. Instead, she sends a waitress over to take care of me in her place. I’m okay with that because sooner or later, Juniper and I are going to tangle with one another again.
Nothing will stop it…
Junie
“Oh my God! Did you see that?”
“I did,” Luna cries.
