Chapter 14

“At least I can buy you another beer.” Travis told me. Sure. If I get drunk enough, you won’t seem so obnoxious.

“Shall I make it another round?” he asked Sally and Melissa.

“How sweet of you!” Sally oozed.

Travis got up and went to the bar to place the order.

“You should go out with him, Nickie. He’s really nice!” was Sally’s opinion.

So’s my brother, but I wouldn’t go out with him, either.

“I’m not ready,” was all I said.

“You’ve got to start sometime! Strike while the iron is hot!”

You mean he won’t get mad if I brand him?

“I’m not ready,” I repeated.

“I think she should, don’t you?” She tried to get Melissa involved.

Travis came back to the table with four bottles of Heineken.

“I hope you ladies aren’t trying to watch your waistlines. None of you looks like you need to.”

“He is sweet,” Melissa told me. “Blind, but sweet.”

I smiled. Travis sat back down next to me. He looked like he was settling in for the night.
