I didn’t know I liked the color orange until now.
Leaning against my car, my gaze follows her until she disappears into the restaurant.
Fuck it.
Locking my car, I walk inside.
After scanning the room, I see her sitting at a table with him.
When did I become a stalker?
She doesn’t look as hungover as she was earlier today when she reaches for her glass of wine.
“Can I help you?” the hostess asks.
“I’ll take a seat at the bar.” I nod in that direction, and she gives me a confused look. I make my way to the bar and grab a seat where I can still see Avani and her date. He says something to her, and she laughs again. The room fills with her cackle, or maybe it’s just that I’m tuned in to only her.
What a witch.
Wonder if she’s put a spell on me.
That has to be the reason I’m here, right?
I’ve never cared what a woman is doing before, yet here I am, waiting and watching her as if she is going to magically come over to me.
A part of me doesn’t even want to see her. Yet here I sit like some sort of lost puppy.
Who the fuck am I?
“Sir?” I turn in my seat to see a lady gesturing to the seat next to me. “Is this seat taken?” She’s attractive and the type of woman I would normally go for. Her lacy dress is a little see-through and clings to her curves, and her lips are painted bright red.
Enticing.
So why am I thinking of light pink lips that match her flushed cheeks when I kiss them?
“No,” I reply after a moment. She takes the seat, and I hear Avani behind me, ordering a drink.
“Are you waiting for anyone?” she asks, looking around before turning her eyes to me.
“No.”
She chuckles. “Okay. Can I buy you a drink?”
“No,” I tell her and look back to Avani. Her date is leaning in now, and his hand touches hers, but she pulls it away.
She looks down, and when she does, I see him do something. She isn’t paying him any attention because she is looking at her phone.
“Are you sure? I could show you a good time.” I turn back to glance at the woman next to me. She smiles, raising her hand toward me.
“Touch me, and I’ll be the last thing you touch,” I warn her as I stand.
She mutters something, but I don’t hear it as I walk away.
A few quick strides and I’m standing behind Avani, and she has no idea.
