Chapter Five

Chance’s week felt endless. He was filming water stunts, which generally speaking he hated. He didn’t like the lack of force he had in his movements when he was underwater and usually he said no to jobs like this. He preferred falling, weaponry, and mixed martial arts. But the director was a friend of his and when his stunt guy fell through, Rick had called Chance and asked him to fill in.

So by Friday, he felt waterlogged and tired.

But really, really looking forward to grabbing a drink with Toni. He had been thinking about her all week long since the debacle at the barbeque on Sunday. She was just so damn cute. With no idea whatsoever that she was. He knew she had been very embarrassed by her mouth swelling and the hives breaking out around her lips but he had just felt bad for her. Plus guilty.

He wanted an opportunity to just sit and talk to her and see what she was really about because right now he had no clue who the real Toni was. He shouldn’t care. He shouldn’t even be interested because she was so not his type. Yet he was.

Chance was a risk taker in his career. He had played it safe dating. And look what that had gotten him. An empty bed.

He knocked on the door of her contemporary-style apartment. It was a nice complex in a trendy neighborhood so the funny girl was clearly doing alright for herself financially. She opened the door rapidly and gave him a smile.

But more to the point, she was wearing a tight red dress with beige heels and her breasts looked like they were attempting to leap out of the neckline. There was so much creamy pale flesh, all round and soft and begging for his touch. He swallowed hard.

She had done nothing to tame her hair and he liked that. There was something so damn sexy about that wild mass of curls. In L.A., especially in the film industry, a lot of women worked hard to tame and control or change what they had. Toni owned her curls and he thought that was so hot.

“That dress looks fantastic on you,” he added.

“This old thing?” she said, giving him a smile. “I’ve had it forever. Since yesterday actually when I realized that a Metallica T-shirt can’t be considered a date night outfit, even if it is bedazzled.”

“I appreciate the effort.” He meant that most sincerely. “I’m glad to see the swelling has gone down. I promise not to order any shrimp for an appetizer.”

“Why, are you going to kiss me? That’s a little presumptuous for a first date.” She winked at him.

Maybe he was starting to figure out Toni because he had no doubt she was giving him a hard time. “Yes, I’m going to kiss you.” He closed the distance between them. “Right now, as a matter of fact.
