Lovesick

Chapter Eight. I worked them all day long and hard.

I closed my eyes. This did not just happen. This did not just happen. You know what fuck it. I will go and drink with this gorgeous man. Why the fuck not? 

"You know what. I just found out I'm single. Let's go dancing tonight." 

"Explain how you're a newly single girl?" 

"My boyfriend just broke up with me on voice mail. Let's go have some fun tonight. Actually all day. Do you mind? I'm feeling vindictive right now." 

"Nope I don't mind being arm candy." 

"Good. Oh are we here already?" 

"Yep we are. Let's go in." 

I followed him out of the car and we grabbed my stuff. We brought it inside and he took me to the master bedroom. The place was unbelievably gorgeous. It was amazing. Jaw dropping. Homey. It was perfect. 

"I'm going to get ready real quick." I went into the bathroom and showered. Shit I forgot about the towel part. 

"Hey Cole! There doesn't happen to be any towels here is there?" 

"Yeah I'll grab you one." 

He came into the bathroom at the entry way and covered his eyes. I walked over and grabbed the towel and wrapped it around my body. 

"Thanks." 

He looked at me winked and walked away. I shut the door and dried up. I walked into the bedroom and opened up my suitcases. I put on some underwear and a bra and I slipped on a booty shorts and a tank top. I blow dried my hair and did beachy waves to it. I did my makeup and sprayed on some perfume and put on deodorant. I slipped on some sandals and grabbed my purse. 

"Let's go!" I smiled and he grabbed some keys and handed them to me. We got into my new truck and I smiled. 

"This is perfect. Ah! I love it. So tell me where are we going?" 

"Walking mall. They have this perfect pizza place." 

So he gave me directions and I parked the truck and we walked down the walking mall. 

I noticed there were paps around sneakily taking pictures. We walked into the pizza place and sat down. He ordered a medium cheese pizza. One milkshake and two straws. 

"So what do you do for a job?" 

"I don't." 

"What do you mean you don't?" 

"I don't work. I write music. I write some of the most popular songs. I get to enjoy people listening to what I write without having to be hounded by people all the time." 

"But you get paid. That's work." 

"No it's art." 

"You're a strange man." 

"But you're attracted to me. I can see it in your eyes." 

"You are attractive. You have that perfect bad boy vibe. I dig it." 

"Well let's eat and then go walk around the mall holding hands. I might even kiss your cheek!" He gasped and winked. I laughed. We enjoyed our lunch and then we did in fact walk around the mall holding hands. I bought some cute western boots. And a bunch of other things. It was dinner time by the time we were done so we went and had a traditional Texas dinner. STEAK! Okay so maybe it's not traditional. But my goodness it was yummy. We went back to my house and I changed. I got into a cute black mini skirt with a red sweetheart neckline tank top with a black leather jacket and black stiletto boots. One could say it was sexy. I curled my hair and touched up my makeup and walked out of the room.
