Chapter Twelve

"Julie!" Jennifer raced across the room and hugged her friend as if she hadn't seen her in a decade. As she squeezed her, Jennifer whispered, "I'm so glad you brought him. Tonya's here, so keep an eye on him. She's been talking about stealing your man. Love you."

She released Julie and smiled. "Robert, beer's over there. Drop a twenty in the bucket and drink away."

He grinned. "This party might not be so bad after all. Can I get you a be…diet something?"

Julie chuckled as she pointed. "You go that way and get a beer. I'll go over there and grab a diet something. And then we'll meet back here."

"Synchronize our watches?"

Giggling, Julie disappeared into the crowd.

Robert stood near the beer line and watched as a brunette in a tight short skirt and low cut top strutted across the room and stood before him.

She dropped her gaze to his feet and moved it up to his hips then linked gazes with him. "Hello, tall, dark and totally fuckable." She dragged her tongue across her top lip.

Robert's chuckle started with a shake of his shoulders then moved to the crooked grin on his face before it erupted from his mouth.

She stepped in closer, slid her hand down his stomach and rested it on the inside of his thigh.

Robert didn't release his gaze from hers. "What? Ya want me to just rip your clothes off and do ya here?"

Her pupils dilated.

Robert flicked her hand off his leg then glanced left and right to see who had slipped their arms around his.

"Tonya." Tricia waited until the girl looked at her. "This gorgeous hunk of maleness is more man than you could ever handle."

Jennifer flicked her hand. "Go away now. He's all ours."

Tonya turned on her heel and stormed off.

"Thank you. But I coulda handled that myself."

"We're just protecting Julie's property." Tricia winked and wandered over to speak with a friend.

Jennifer released his arm. "Tonya's the school slut."

"Figured that out all by myself."

Julie stopped in front of them. "Did you get lost coming back from getting the beer?" She glanced at his empty hands. "Or did you get lost going to find the beer?"

Christopher barged between them and bumped Robert's shoulder. "Guess Jennifer's starting to hang with trash."

Robert lunged forward, grabbed Christopher's shoulder and spun him around. Before Christopher could react, Robert slammed his palms on Christopher's chest shoving him back a couple of steps. "I am so not going take any of this shit tonight. Ya wanna take this outside and end it now?" His shoulders heaved with the depth of breaths he inhaled.

Refusing to make eye contact with Robert, Christopher glanced around. "I didn't mean nothing."

With one step, Robert invaded Christopher's personal space. "Yea, you did." He locked his gaze onto Christopher's and didn't blink.

Jennifer started to step forward, but Julie touched her arm. "No, leave him alone. Let him deal. He won't do anything stupid."

Several heartbeats later, a friend of Christopher's grabbed his arm, pulling him away.

Robert slightly turned his head and watched as they camouflaged Christopher into the crowd.
