Xavier FINAL(97)
“Yeah right, let’s go.” I grabbed her hand and she pulled it away. “You really telling me no?”
“Yes I am.” She crossed her arms in front of her and stuck her nose in the air.
“Because you want him looking at your tits?”
“What does it matter? Everyone has them.” She opened up her little cardigan and walked towards the table and bent over right in front of him. Mother fucker.
She handed him a card and shook his hand. He kissed her fucking hand and winked at her.
She turned around and smiled as she walked back to me, “Let’s go.”
“Tell me you did not just ask him to come by the office.”
She didn’t answer.
“You stay right the fuck here and don’t you even think about moving.”
I walked over to the table River and the band sat. “I’ll take that card back. I’m in charge here, not her. I’m not interested.”
“No?” The punk ass laughed in my face. “I wasn’t gonna show anyways.”
“Sure you weren’t.”
“I just said yes to be polite to her. I had a record deal once. Not interested in bitches like you using women to lure in talent then get fucked over. So again, I wasn’t fucking interested.”
“I don’t give a fuck. I don’t need some fucking drummer checking out my girl.”
He smiled, “I was pushing your buttons man. Not that she doesn’t have a nice rack but I don’t need any help getting laid.”
“And I’m supposed to give a fuck.”
“Take it as you want to. I’m just telling you maybe you should stick around awhile. See those two girls over by the speaker tower. I’m fucking them tonight. They don’t know it yet. But that’s half the reason I beat the skins. I like the chase, the capture, and then the release. You had nothing to worry about. She wouldn’t have fucked me even if you weren’t here. You can tell by the way they look at you. She wasn’t throwing the vibe.”
“You may wanna watch yourself. I was just like you man, fucking a different girl every other day. One day you wake up, look at a girl and that’s fucking it. Watch out for the ones who push your ass away they make you want it even more.”
“I had one of those once. Never again.”
“I hear you man, fucks with your head until you wonder what the fuck happened to you and your balls. Don’t get caught River. Stay true to who you wanna be. And if you wanna show up Monday and you don’t stare at her tits I’d love to see what we can do together.”
“Monday at four?”
“Yeah.”
“You gonna apologize for being a dick?” He laughed.
“Nope.”
We shook hands and I looked around to see where Taelyn was and saw her walking out the door.
I ran out behind her and grabbed her hand. “He’s coming Monday.”
She jerked her hand away and raised it to hail a cab.
“Come on Taelyn don’t be like this.”
“I am taking a time out.”
“What the fuck is that supposed to mean?”
“I need a break from you, that’s what that means.”
A cab pulled up and she started to open the door. “Get lost pal.”
“I am not riding home with you.”
“Is this because I told you to stay put?”
She walked to the other side of the cab and got in. I opened the door and got in the other side.
“I’m asking you for a time out and you’re not allowing it. I’m going home. If you don’t get out.”
“We’re going back together.”
“If you don’t get out I am going home to Boston.”
“Don’t be fucking--.”
“One more word.” Her tone was calm and steady.
