I check my phone once I get in the car.
Nothing from Brad.
I actually thought he would be there waiting for me when I finished with Gil.
Until I remember that we’re fighting, and he may never be there to wait for me again. In his defense, he did warn me and I didn’t listen. Just went about doing my own thing, like normal.
I text the girls once I get in the car. Even though I’m exhausted, I know if I go home, I’ll just rehash the entire day over and over again.
Me: Anyone up for Crazy Burro? But like now, not later? I’ve had a day and I think I’m fighting with Brad. I need my girls & a margarita.
Lexie: I could use a break. :-)
Remi: How can you already be fighting with Brad? You just got back together.
Lexie: You and Brad are back together?!?!
Me: We were. But now I’m not so sure.
Lexie: I’ll leave in 5.
Remi: Walking out the door.
I get toThe Crazy Burroin a matter of minutes. Our favorite waitress isn’t there, but we still get our regular table.
I order three margaritas and chips with salsa, check my email, check-in on Facebook, and sit back to wait for the girls. The margaritas arrive before they do. I take a long pull on mine, not caring if I get brain freeze, just wanting the calming effects of the tequila.
Lexie gets there first, I stand to give her a hug. “Hey, cute outfit!” she tells me.
Once again, I want to say ‘suck it’ to Bauer over his earlier derision of my clothing choice.
She grabs her margarita and we cheers one another. She’s wearing cut-offs, a blackLovestonetank top, and pink Chucks. Her hair is down today and she looks absolutely adorable.
“You look good,” I tell her.
“Pfft.” She waves her hand dismissively. “That’s sweet. Now, tell me everything.”
“I’ll tell you all about what happened once Remi gets here. Oh God, and I had to talk to the perp today,” I tell her.
“Wait, are we talking about the case or Brad?” she asks.
“Ohmigod, right? I feel like I haven’t talked to you in days!” I say.
“I know! Tell me all about how you got back together.”
“Well, apparently he and Remi were texting after we left the bar, and she brought me here and then he showed up and grabbed me all caveman style and pulled me to the back alley and fucked me against the wall.”
“What?!?!” Lexie practically screeches.
“I know. Be quiet! Anyway, it was amazing. So fucking amazing. And then he took me home and we had sex all night and I’m so sore, and God, Lexie, I’ve missed him so much and I didn’t realize it.”
“I know you have, sweetie. I’m sorry. I’m so glad he’s back now though. You two belong together.”
“That’s just it, now I don’t think we are going to be together,” I say.
