Chapter 17
I was already on my way toward her house when she finally answered her phone, so it only took me a few minutes to get to the restaurant. I look around, wondering what the hell sheâs doing at a bar on a Friday night.
Itâs easy to spot her. Sheâs leaning over the table, talking hurriedly with some chick. I ignore the hostess and walk right into the dining area. Her table only has two glasses, and no food or plates, so I donât think theyâve been here long or that anyone else is with them. I try to calm my nerves, but it doesnât do much good. I need to put a fucking tracker on her phone. She used to just go to work and the store and shit, but now that sheâs not at the club anymore, sheâs all over the fucking place.
The chick sheâs with watches my approach, her eyes roaming up and down my body before they land on my face. I can tell by the way her lips part sheâs attracted to me.
âHi, Rafe.â My girl says my name so easily. I like it when weâre alone, but not here. I place my hands on the back of her chair to keep myself from wrapping them over her shoulders and squeezing.
Keeping my eyes on her friend, I lower my mouth to her ear and rasp, âHey.â She turns so she can look at me and smiles. Itâs open and friendly, but not hungry the way her friendâs is. The difference is night and day.
I pull out an empty chair and scoot it closer to her before lowering myself into it. I really want to take her out of here, but I donât think that would be the right move. This must be the friend she mentioned, and I donât want to give this chick a reason not to like me⦠Well, not yet anyway. Once sheâs fully mine, I donât give a fuck what this girl thinks.
âRafe, this is Gwen. Gwen, Rafe.â She makes the introduction nervously, so I place my hand on her thigh. I canât tell if Iâm making her uncomfortable or if itâs the situation.
Her friend leans over the table and limply extends her hand, like I might take it in mine. Instead of completely snubbing her like I usually would, I tap her fingers with mine, barely touching her, then rest my free hand on the table. âGirlsâ night?â I try not to sound too much like a dick, but Iâm not sure how well I do.
âYeah, just dinner and a movie,â she answers.
A waiter nears the table and does a double take when he stops with a tray in his hands. âAw, I thought I had both of you all to myself. My loss.â I meet his eyes and think about snapping his neck. I donât bother hiding my thoughts from my expression. The guy looks away from me and starts placing the food on the table without any more shit coming from his mouth.
