I couldn’t believe that Jane had gone and gotten herself a boyfriend. I’d have to warn him that my fists would be in his face if he even thought about hurting her.
“Need some company?” She bit down on her lower lip. “I’ve always wanted to go to SF.”
“Nah, I’m good.”
I looked to my right to see a hot chick with long black hair staring at me, sucking on her finger. I smiled at her and she winked at me. When I waved for her to come over, she jumped up and almost ran to me. I could tell her panties were wet just from the way she was walking. The brunette stopped next to me and looked at the blonde and then they both looked at me with wicked smiles.
This was what I liked about the women I met in the bar. They knew what I wanted before I even had to ask. I checked the time again and grinned. I still had plenty of time to have some fun with these two and then head home to shower and pack.
I was excited to see my sister, but I knew that there was no way I’d be able to do my thing with her around. Better for me to double up on pleasure tonight so that I’d be ready for my upcoming drought.
Chapter 20
Millie
“Doesn’t it just feel like we’re the only two women in the world without boyfriends?”
Olivia and I clinked martini glasses together in commiseration as we sat in the back of the Mexican restaurant staring at the happy couples around us.
“Three. There’s Birdy, as well.” I took a huge gulp of my mango martini and sat back. “But yes, it is starting to feel as if we’re part of the Single Forever Club.”
“I cannot believe that Jane and Tate are now dating.” Olivia reached for a nacho. “I mean, it’s cool and all, but damn. That happened so quickly.”
“He’s a hottie, though.” I laughed. “I’d bang him.”
“Yeah, I’d bang him and Jagger as well.”
Olivia laughed and I joined in. Olivia and I had only been friends for about six months now, but it felt like I’d known her my whole life. We both started working together at a company called the 800 Club along with our other new coworkers and friends, Birdy, Jane, and Magnolia.
Since we’d been working together, Magnolia had started dating her neighbor, who had turned out to be a man from her past. Now they were engaged, and Jane was dating our boss, Tate, which just left me, Olivia, and Birdy to live the single life.
“We can’t let Magnolia and Jane hear us saying that, though. They’d kill us.”
“Yes, yes, they would.” Olivia smiled at me, her brown eyes sparkling with amusement. Her black hair hung in curls to her shoulders and her mocha brown skin seemed to glow.
“Okay, are you wearing a new blush or something?” I asked her. “Because you are positively glowing.” I narrowed my eyes at her. “Wait, don’t tell me you have a new boyfriend as well?” I glared at her. “Is that why you’re looking so happy?”
“I’m wearing bronzer, Millie.” She rolled her eyes at me. “Remember I told you I went to the Mac store yesterday?” She pulled a curl through her fingers and made a face. “Be honest, do you prefer my hair curly or straight? I’ve decided to wear my hair naturally now because the flatiron has been singeing my ends and giving me split ends, but it’s such a different look.”
“Girl, you know my answer.” I laughed as I threw my head back. My own long red curls cascading down my back. “We have to love our curls. Straight hair is too much work and too much damage.”
“You have beautiful hair, though.” Olivia smiled. “I’d love to have hair as long as yours.”
“And I’d love to have those perfect Goldilocks curls that you have instead of my frizzy mess.” I shook my head. “But I think we both have the looks that suit our faces. I mean, you have the most perfect bone structure.” I took in her appearance. “You’re so beautiful, it’s not even fair.”
“Where have you been all of my life, Millie?” Olivia laughed. “You’re absolutely perfect for my ego.”
“It’s too bad we weren’t lesbians, or we’d be the perfect partners.”
“I know.” She giggled. “It’s a pity we love the D too much.”
“You got to say it like you mean it.” I took another sip of my martini. “We don’t like the D, we love the dick.”
“Sorry, can I help you ladies?” An older man stopped next to the table, an amused grin on his face as he looked at us both. He’d obviously heard what I’d just said because he was licking his lips like the cat that was about to get the cream.
“Nope.” Olivia said bluntly. “Keep on moving.”
“Get out of here, buddy,” I added, and we both laughed as the man turned away with a disappointed look. “Do you want to go dancing this weekend? We might not be able to get Jane and Magnolia to come with us, but I’m pretty sure we can convince Birdy.”
“Do you think so?” Olivia looked doubtful. “Birdy doesn’t seem to like going out much.”
“Trust me, I can talk her into it,” I assured her. “We can be like Charlie’s Angel’s. Only the crimes we’re going to solve are the cases of our broken hearts.”
“That was so corny.”
“Okay, empty hearts, then?”
“Yeah, that’s a bit better.” Olivia took another nacho into her mouth. “Oh, shoot, isn’t Jane’s brother Marco coming to town tomorrow? Didn’t we say we’d hang out with them?”
“Yeah, but we can ditch them after a couple of hours. Didn’t Jane say her brother was a huge player?”
“I can see why. He was gorgeous in that photo she showed us.” Olivia let out a low whistle. “Damn, he was muy caliente.”
“Yeah, he was.” I grinned. “It’s too bad he’s Jane’s brother.”
“Not to worry, there are a lot
