today we really appreciate it and for tonight, and thanks for the company earlier Mickey.”
“Anytime,” Mickey says with a wink turning back to the bar.
Sallack is searching my eyes for something but I can’t tell what. He takes my han d and leads me to the hallway, away from prying eyes.
“I’m sorry if I speak out of line Zara, but you and Den, are you together?” There is a hint of sorrow to his deep voice.
There the question I hear on a regular basis. We do come across as a couple as we are always together and very touchy feely to one another. That is just the way we have always been, and always will be.
“No we’re best friends.”
That b rought a smile to his gorgeous face; I return it as he puts his fingers to my cheek tenderly. He seems to be very hands on man just like Den, not that I mind at all.
“You are something else, you know that Zara.”
What the hell should I say to that, Mr. sexy thinks I’m something to admire! Ha. I lean into him, kissing his cheek softly.
“Thanks again for all you help today,”
God he smells amazing, I wonder what he uses to smell so good.
“It was my pleasure.”
I gaze into his eyes as I give him a smile before turning and walking upstairs, not missing the growl coming from him! I look back over my shoulder to where he is still standing, watching me with a look of lust. I turn back with a smile of satisfaction.
“ Mine ” I hear from behind me. Mine! What was that about? I carry on to my bedroom door smiling. I can’t get over the fact that Sallack and Mickey are so hot! Moreover, the fact that the hottest man I have lay eyes on thinks that I am beautiful!
Chapter 3
I wake in the morning, rubbing my eyes; Den’s fast asleep on the other side of the room snoring gently. I pick up my phone to see the time; its 9:08 on a Saturday morning. I am so happy to be here, I feel like this is where I belong; I know Den does to, after chatting with him all night when he came up from the bar. We are both of the understanding that we are here for a purpose.
The first thing I do is use the bathroom and jump in the shower. When I finish I pull on a pale blue dress with thin straps and maybe a tad too tight but oh well ‘got it flaunt it’.
“Hey you’re awake,” I say to Den as I walk out of the bathroom clean and changed, as he lays there on the bed hands behind his head.
“Ummmm. Looking good babe, give me a twirl,” He says with a big grin. I laugh out loud at his request and slap him up the head gently as I join him on his bed.
“Hey what are you doing today? I was going to walk up to that club we passed on the way in and see if they are hiring. If we are staying that is?”
“I think that is a brilliant idea. I feel the same babe! Let’s do it, I will ask around for a place to rent, check the papers.”
Den and I know that it might not work out, but it might be perfect, so we are going to jump in with both feet. We need a change, we want to fit in around here, and feel welcomed which we have so far. It really does feel like a dream come true from the moment we walked out of the airport.
We both have the money for at least 6 months’ rent, bills, and food. However, we have both decided to get jobs ASAP.
“Sound like a plan. I’m going to go down to the bar and get something to eat and have a look around.”
“Ok babe I’ll be down in half hour, after I’ve grabbed a shower.”
As I get up to walk to the door I pick up my handbag and put my phone in, Den comes behind me and wraps his arms around my shoulders making me smile with
