To Make Her Mine

Josh

I was still fuming with anger. Every second was making it even worse than before. I needed a drink badly. I came back to resort and headed to the bar.

I stood still as I saw Eva sitting there at the bar talking to bartender. She was drunk for sure. On the brink of collapse, I still managed to head myself towards my room when I heard, "and despite all this, I still love that ogre."

Ogre. Eva called me ogre sometimes as I had heavy built. I hadn't had much to drink so my hearing wasn't impaired. Turning back I stayed listening to whatever she was telling the bartender.
From where I stood I could see both bartender and Eva but they both couldn't see me.

She continued," you know I'm one of the prettiest girl you see."

I chuckled, there was no denying.

"That you are," said the bartender bending a little more towards her than necessary.

He was taking a lot of interest in her.

"Tell me can you love two people at one time?"

"I don't know about that, but many people can love you."

Eva giggled, "you know how to make a girl happy?"

"No, I know how to make a woman happy," he winked.

Unknown to me, I had clenched my hands into fists and I wanted to punch this bartender over there.

"I'm sure you do."

"I want to tell you a secret...shhhhh.." she said leaning forward, her deep dress showing her cleavage. She was sitting on a high bar stool. She kept one leg crossed over the other. Given how drunk she was, I marvelled at her ability to keep this stance.

The bartender was listening to her intently but as she leaned forward, his eyes wandered to territory he shouldn't go. My blood boiled as his eyes wandered on her body like a predator. Like he was undressing her with his eyes. That was it.

Almost running I ended the distance between us in a moment and touched her lightly on her shoulder.

" Hey honey, I was looking for you everywhere and here you are."

"Josh, what are you....ohhh..."

Seeing me was as unexpected for Eva as for the bartender. She lost her footing and high stool slipped beneath her. She yelled.
Luckily I knew this was gonna happen, she was always very jumpy. I was prepared to catch her. Drinks spilled on her baby pink dress. That drink was going to ruin her pretty dress. Too bad, I liked that color on her.

Bartender also came forward and tried to help her. I glared at him and he took steps backwards.

"Come on cherry, we will go to your room."

"No, I want the drinks."

"You have had enough. Let's go."

"Who are you to decide that for her? If the lady wants to sit she can sit. I will drop her to her room." Said bartender.

"That my dear friend isn't going to happen. She is my fiancee. So back off."

He looked like all his efforts were down the drain. I smirked. Yeah, you stay in your pants buddy.

"He is lying." She said to the bartender but this time he thought better of it. He started cleaning to close the bar.

I put my arms around Eva. I steadied her and held her close to my chest to give her a moment to maintain balance. She still used her old perfume, that smell drove me crazy.

" I'm offended now. You are calling me liar, honey." Said I.

" You call me honey one more time and I will spank your ass."
