Good things come... PART1

5. Open mouth wide, and insert foot...

Melissa

All of a sudden, Sarah fell victim to a massive coughing attack, while the tall woman placed the steaming cup of liquid chocolate right infront of me.
She smiled politely and then turned her head towards my red-faced friend, with great concerns.
Without hesitation, she quickly stepped alongside Sarah and gently started patting her back.

"Better??"
she then asked, as Sarah slowly calmed down again.
All the while, I kept watching her, ....to be more precise....I watched her hands.
She had large hands,....well more like long, but also delicate fingers.......
Fingers that looked like, they could grab and hold on tightly, but yet be able to touch soft and gentle as well.
I smiled to myself, with thoughts of what these strong and slender hands were surely capable of doing.

"I'm fine...I'm fine....!" Sarah gasped, finally able to breathe again.....as she thanked the tall woman wearing the green apron.

"Is there anything else I can get you, or would that be all.....?"
I slowly took a good long sip and gazed at her over the rim of my cup.
Damnnnnn.....her eyes were beautiful,...dark and mysterious.......the kind of eyes I could sink into........hell could.....I was already about to do so......!
For christ sake Melissa,.... get a hold of yourself......don't loose sight of your challenge and winning it!
Right!!
Winning the challenge aaaand the challenge!!
Keeping my composure and acting as if nothing happened, I lowered my voice to a seducing murmur....

"Mmmmm...hot and spicy, that's how I like my chocolate.!"

"Well,...good for you. I'm glad everything is to your liking.!" she replied politely, turned around and walked away.

What the hell????
There was something absolutely going the wrong way.
Any other woman would've shown some kind of reaction to my flirting efforts, flattered, amused, or at least ticked off......anything....!
But not nothing at all...like her!!
Ok...I admit, I did have way better turn-on lines in my repertoire......but.....no reaction at all....now that hurt!

I turned my head to look at Sarah, who now was battling laughter instead of the coughing desaster......all at my expense of course.

Sarah

The look on Melly face, as the waitress left, was simply priceless.
Till then I had never, ever witnessed this sheer disbelief and utter loss of words, with her....all her overboarding selfconfidence just took a knockout punch out of nowhere and left her looking pretty dumbfounded.
Yes indeed, this would be a challenge she wouldn't easily win....if at all.

"Seems to me, you're loosing you're touch,...huh....my dear..?"
"You wish.....!" Melissa sneared...
"Ok....she might be a tough cookie......but I'll soften her up in no time.....believe me."

There she was again, displaying her cocky, arrogance.....
"Well my dear......the best of luck to you,...with your mission, keep me informed with your....uhhm...progress...!"
I got up and gathered my things...

"Hey.....you're leaving already.....? We just got here and I thought we had some catching up to do....!!!"
Melly looked up to me, with disappointment in her eyes....as I leaned toward her and kissed her forehead.

"Next time Melly...next time.....for now you have other priorities!"
I gave her my winners smile, paid the tab, waved cheerfully and then left.

Walking down the street, I laughed to myself........ohhh....yes girl....you have your work cut out for you!
Let's just see who will have the last laugh.
