CHAPTER TEN

Ash

I walked inside the bar then searched for Sawyer.

“Over here.” Sawyer whistled then waved at me from the booth.

I headed in his direction, and once I got closer to his table, I realized he wasn’t alone. Two cute brunettes were with him. “Just got off work.” I slid into the booth and sat beside one of the girls. “What’s up?” Sawyer texted me earlier and asked me to meet him there.

The girl twirled a strand of hair in her fingers. “I’m Lacy.”

“Hi.” I extended my hand. “Ash.”

She didn’t take it. “Ash…I like it.”

Anyway… I turned back to Sawyer. “Guess what happened to me today. I inked this really sick dragon on this eighteen-year-old girl. It looked sick, but she’ll regret it one day.” I pulled out my phone and showed him the picture.

“That does look cool.” He handed it back.

“I did the design myself. Pretty neat.” I shoved my phone back into my pocket.

“I have ink.” Lacy stared at me like no one else was there.

“Yeah?” I asked. “Where?” I didn’t see anything on her arms.

“It’s in a place where you can’t see…it’s of two dolphins.”

Lame. “Cool.” I turned back to Sawyer. “Did you catch the game?”

The girl beside him suddenly grabbed his face and started kissing him. Sawyer returned her embrace and completely forgot about me. Why did he ask me to meet him there if he was hooking up with someone?

“Hannah is my sister,” Lacy explained. “She agreed to go out with Sawyer because he said he had a friend…a hot one. And I’m glad he didn’t exaggerate at all.” Her hand moved to my arm.

I brushed it off. “Whoa…slow down.”

“What?” Alcohol was on her breath, and judging by the empty glasses in front of her, she was already buzzed if not drunk.

“Slow down?” She had a hint of brattiness to her. “No one tells me to slow down.”

“Well, I just did.”

Sawyer stopped kissing Hannah. “Girls, could you excuse us for a moment?” He glared at me like he intended to murder me the second we were alone.

The girls left the table and headed to the bathroom.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” Sawyer immediately started.

“Me?” I asked. “Why do you keep setting me up on dates?”

“Because last time I checked, you were straight. Or are you not anymore?”

I shot him a murderous look. “I’m straighter than a rod and I can get my own dates.”

“What’s wrong with her?” Sawyer asked. “She’s cute and easy.”

“I can get my own women,” I argued. “I’ve never needed help before.”

“I’m aware of that. I just thought I would share the wealth.”

“Well, I’m good,” I snapped.

“Dude, what’s your problem? You shut down Irene and now Lacy, who’s even hotter. What’s up with you?”

“Nothing…” Alessandra’s face came into my mind. She was all I ever thought about, even when we weren’t together. I didn’t even want to be in that bar. I wanted to be at her place, watching a movie and fucking on the couch. I didn’t want to be there with some girl that wanted to sleep with me the second she looked at me.
