Women are dangerous and expensive!” Beau’s eyes sparkled with
mischief and a bit too much to drink.
His brown hair flopped over his brow, and his dusky blue eyes matched
his shirt. I was convinced if he let go of the pool cue, he’d lose his balance.
The petite, dark-haired confection in a pink dress who’d just prompted
Beau’s declaration, unpeeled herself from him and gave me a dirty look as
she approached me.
“I was just offering condolences, he doesn’t have to be so mean,” she
said.
I couldn’t imagine Beau being mean, so I offered her a small smile. Most
of the time he was just honest, which I guess could equate to the same thing
sometimes. “Condolences? Nobody’s dead yet,” I said. “Besides, he’s just
having a rough day,” I assured her. “Better luck when you see him next.” She
cast one more longing look over her shoulder, a shoulder that seriously only
came up to my elbow. Then she flounced away.
“Why, thanks, Beau.” I rolled my eyes and took a sip of the beer I
dangled between two fingers. “Women are dangerous and expensive? I’m a
woman in case you missed it.” I handed my cue to the guy waiting to take
over our table. He was a muscled gym rat with a fake tan, purple tank top,
and shoulders wide enough to carry dinner plates.
“You sure are,” Gym Rat said, his eyes rising finally from my chest to my
eyes. “You can chalk my cue anytime.”
I felt sure he’d use me for practice bench-pressing instead. Though he’d
probably need two of me to reach his bench weight, despite my solid bones.
“Nice line,” I said.
“But you’re Gracie,” Beau said loudly. “You don’t count.”
“I don’t count,” I said apologetically to Gym Rat. Gym Rat seemed to
belatedly realize some chivalry might be in order and turned. His purple tank
top stretched dangerously across his chest. There was hardly enough of it as it
was.
“Don’t worry about it.” I laid a hand on Gym Rat’s shiny shoulder in case
his steroids accidentally gave him a heart attack and wondered if I could ask
him his skin care regime so I could make my legs look as smooth and glossy
as his arms. “I don’t need saving. I’ve known that joker for twenty years. I’ll
just go on and take him back to his momma.”
I grabbed Beau round the middle and walked him through the bar. “And
you’re right Beau. I’m expensive. You owe me fifty bucks, and I’m
dangerous because you always owe me when we play pool. Have you not
learned by now?”
“Awww, come on, Gracie. Do we have to leave?”
I caught the eye of the bartender and our friend Alice, the owner, and
waved with a motion toward Beau to explain our sudden exit. They knew one
of us would be back in to settle our tab. And if not tomorrow, we were there
almost every Sunday. It was our ritual.
