“You look stressed out. Want me to rub your shoulders?” Torie asked Ez as they sat at a table down at the seedy little bar again.

“You know, that sounds really good.” Ez scrunched and released her shoulder blades. “I could use a back rub.”

“Or I could do that,” a masculine voice said somewhere very near her ear. She almost screamed until she whipped her head around and faced the direction of the voice. Then she couldn’t help but laugh.

“Where’d you come from?”

Alan chuckled as he looked from Ez to Torie and back to Ez. “Mind if I sit down?”

“Of course not!” Ez pointed to an empty chair at the next table and watched as Alan grabbed it. That fine ass. Oh, god, maybe she should just ask him to stand there so she could stare at it. That was when she noticed Torie―the girl was staring a hole through Alan. “Oh, sorry. Torie, this is my friend Alan. Alan, this is Victoria, but I call her Torie.”

“Mind if I call you Torie too?” Alan asked with a grin.

It seemed to take Torie a few seconds to catch up with the conversation before she finally took the hand he offered and managed to gasp out, “Oh, you can call me Torie two, Torie three, Torie fifteen … I don’t care, as long as you call me.”

“Down, girl,” Ez whispered conspiratorially. “He’s taken.”

The look on Alan’s face took his eyebrows up and made his eyes almost pop out. “Oh, I am?”

Ez leaned in and murmured, “Do you want to be?”

Alan whispered back, “Don’t think I’d mind it,” and dropped a soft little kiss on the tip of her nose.

“Oh holy hell. What the fuck? Where have I been?” Torie shrieked, pulling them out of the little world they’d been immersed in and making them both laugh. “Ez, you’ve got some ‘splaining to do. I thought I was your best friend!”

“You are,” Ez said with a laugh and patted her hand. “We just started seeing each other, so this is all really new, wouldn’t you say, Alan?”

“Yeah. Very new.” He looked around and waved to a server. “Want anything? I mean, you both have drinks, but I’ll buy another round.”

“Hell yeah!” Torie sang out. “I’ll take a Moscow Mule and some kind of snack!”

The server stepped into their space and Alan told him, “A Moscow Mule for that cute lil’ thing on the other side of the table.” That made Torie beam. “For this beautiful lady, she’ll have a, what the hell is that you’re drinking?”

“Captain’s First Mate,” Ez answered, laughing.

“Okay, whatever the hell that is, get her another one. And I’ll take a Guinness,” he said. “Oh, and some of that truffle popcorn I know you make back there in the back. Make it two batches. Please.”

As the server walked away, Torie cooed, “Thanks, Alan. You didn’t have to do that.”

“I wanted to. It’s not every day I get to sit at a table with two beautiful women. That’s a status-booster for me!”

Ez watched as Torie and Alan chatted back and forth.
