“Bitch,” I teased.
“Whatever. You know you love it.”
“I do. I love you and your pervy mind.”
“Yeah, yeah.” A timer sounded on her end. “That’s my cue. Gotta go check my girl’s color.”
“Okie dokie.”
“You sure you’re okay?”
“Yeah.” And I meant it.
“Positive?”
“Yes,” I assured her, rolling my eyes.
“Cross your heart?”
“And hope to die,” I swore, crossing my heart again. “I’m going to freshen up and head down to the bar.”
“Good girl.” I smiled at her silliness. “Tell Michael I said hello,” she sang.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah.” I brushed her off, finally smiling. I checked myself in the mirror: smeared mascara, raggedy top, old sweats.Get your ass in the shower. The night’s not over, and neither are you!
After a reinvigorating shower that helped erase the last few hours, I texted Michael,Drinks? Downstairs?
Michael: Hey there. Glad to hear from you. I thought I might have to send out a search party.
Me: LOL. It was a long day. I could use a drink . . . or 20.
Michael: LOL
Me: I’ll be down in the bar in 15.
Michael: Am I invited?
Me: Scroll back. I already did.
Michael: Hmm, so you did. Can’t wait to come . . .
Me: Me too. See you there.
I looked at myself from every angle in the floor-length mirror. I loved this mirror. And this room. Everything about it made me feel glamorous. I felt fantastic despite everything that had happened that afternoon and didn’t know if it was finally getting the closure I needed or the anticipation that I was about to see Michael. The more I got to know him, the more he made me feel sexy. And wanted. Maybe Audrey was right, and I should just bang his head into the headboard. Or maybe I should let him do that to me and fuck any residual feelings about Tim right out of my system. Either way, I popped a mint in my mouth, applied a little more gloss to my lips, and fluffed my hair as I left my room.
Michael
Icould feel her beforeI even saw her. It was like my body had a sixth sense when it came to Siena Moretti.
I had been in the bar for the past ten minutes, like a damned schoolboy waiting for his crush to show up. I turned and watched in silence as the gorgeous brunette that consumed almost every waking thought glided over to me. Every head in the room seemed to watch as she moved across the floor. And she was walking straight to me.
Fuck me.Her legs. Those heels. And that dress.Holy shit!I’d never seen someone so mouthwatering.
I stood and held out my hand. When she placed hers in mine, I pulled her closer, placing a chaste kiss upon her lips. The sultry scent of her perfume was an intoxicating, heady scent of vanilla and honey that assaulted my senses. She smelled like heaven and looked like temptation personified in a purple dress that hugged every one of her delicious curves and dipped almost to her navel in front, hinting at the softness of the glory that lay below that plungingV. “You look beautiful. As always.”
“My, aren’t you being a gentleman.” I watched as the skirt of her dress hitched up higher, showing off her tanned, toned thighs that led straight down to a pair of five-inch stilettos.
“Sometimes, I can be quite gallant, Ms. Moretti.” I winked, taking her in from head to toe one more time.
