“This is me. Who is t

his?”

“Laura.”

“Well, hello, Laura.”

“I got your number from Jade.”

“Oh, you did, did you?”

“Yeah. I told her you were hot.”

“Did you, now?”

“I did,” she said then turned to look at me.

“What can I do you for?”

“I thought we could go out or something.”

“Sure,” he said. “You doing anything tonight?”

“Tonight?”

“Yeah, tonight.”

“Well…”

“Let’s go grab a drink and see where it goes from there.”

She looked at me for affirmation. I nodded my head. The sooner he moves on the better. I was ready for a little less complicated.

“Sounds good to me.”

“Great, Laura. You want me to pick you up?”

I shook my head violently.

“No, we can meet somewhere,” she said.

“Alright. I’ll text you an address.”

“Sounds good.”

“I’ll be the one with all the muscles.”

Laura giggled like a schoolgirl.

“Yeah, I’ve seen your photos online.”

“Oh, you have, have you?”

“Yeah. They were nice.”

“Just nice, huh? You’ll change your tone when you see them in person.”

“I bet I will,” she said.
