Chapter 18
Easy finally finished the lawn and wrestled the mower back into the corner of the garage. He wiped his brow with the back of his hand and headed for the cool air-conditioning of his house. He wasnât particularly looking forward to an entire summer of this, but it wasnât like he had a choice, either. He grasped the handle of the large bay door and pulled. When it met the concrete of the driveway, he bent to twist the handle and lock it into position.
âNice view.â
He jerked his head around to see Daisy standing on the sidewalk, eyeing him appreciatively. He stood up and shielded his eyes with his hand. Ignoring her comment, he said, âWhat are you doing here?â It was a slight moment of panic or maybe just irritation. Surely she didnât think they had some kind of relationship, not just because theyâd screwed a couple of times. He certainly hadnât meant to leave her that impression.
She grinned at him. âI was visiting Tildy.â
He sighed inwardly and relaxed his guard a little. The last thing he needed was some chick breaking into his house or telling everyone they were getting married. Granted those things had worked out for Tex and Hawk, respectively, but Easy wasnât headed down that road.
âBut if youâre going to walk around shirtless,â she told him, âbending over all the time, I might visit more often.â
He frowned. There didnât seem to be anything to say to that without putting ideas in her head. âDonât you have to work tonight?â he asked. Truthfully, he had thought to seek her out after her shift. Last night had been good, better than heâd been hoping for actually. The look on Daisyâs face as sheâd laid on the bed was all the evidence heâd needed to conclude sheâd enjoyed it, too. She wouldnât be telling anyone else that story about the bathroom. He felt confident that heâd fucked the memory out of her pretty little head.
She was cute, he had to admit. Cover up the tats and take out the nose piercing and sheâd be just his type. In the looks department. In the sex department she was pretty good, too, but that mouth of hers- yikes. He sure as hell didnât need a woman like Slick, picking fights and winning them, too. Even Abby, who no doubt used her mouth for something other than sassing Tex, at least in the bedroom, was too high maintenance with Dom/sub bullshit and constantly needed tending to. Tildy wouldâve been perfect, if heâd met her in basic or on R&R and hadnât been blown to shit right after.
A beautiful, polite, nice girl who would move into a house on base and fill it up with kids while he earned his commission. But that possibility was long gone. In its place would be other women, a lot of them, for the rest of his life, which wasnât a bad way to live, he realized, now that he knew he could do it. At least he wouldnât have to settle for his hand anymore.
