spirited lifestyle. They would sneak around in her bushes trying to get a glimpse. Don’t get me wrong; Skye was an exhibitionist. However, it was never out in public.
Chapter 5
Bouncing into the parking lot of ‘Hole in the Wall’, I couldn’t help but notice the breakfast traffic. This place was packed. Getting out the truck, I adjusted my jean shorts and cowboy boots. It may be ninety-five degrees in Avery, but I'd be damned if I didn’t wear my boots. Even now, after losing so much weight, I still felt a little awkward from time-to-time. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to my new body.
“You look fine,” encouraged Skye.
“I know, but I still get a little uncomfortable every once in a while.”
“Don’t. You look smoking hot mama, and your legs go on for days,” Harley responded with a smack of her bubble gum.
Harley, Skye and I entered the restaurant right at eight forty-five. As soon as we step over the threshold we were immediately met with the cold breeze of the A.C. unit pumped in our faces. Ahhhh. Much better. You could tell it was summer in Texas, when you could easily start sweating at eight am. It was going to be a hot one for sure. Settling into our booth across from the bar, and we ordered our food.
“So what’s the deal with you and Chuck?” I asked Harley.
“What do you mean?”
“Well, you seem to like him. He’s into you; what are you waiting for?” I asked.
“I’m undeniably sexually attracted to him, but you know me. Every time I get close to a guy, he always finds a way of fucking it up. I’m attracted to the douchebags of the world. It only fits that Chuck would be one of them as well. I figured why not save myself the trouble.”
“Not all men are d-bags you know,” Skye added.
“True, but I’d just assume he is until he proves himself otherwise.”
“I just think you’re freaked out because you finally met your match.”
“Shit. Chuck is no match for me. He has to work for this. It won’t come easy. To be honest, I wouldn’t mind a quick roll in the hay. If he really is like me, it could be one hell of a ride.”
“HARLEY!” Skye preached.
“Hey, a woman can only depend on her rabbit for so long.”
“You’re trying to tell me you would be ok with a “fuck buddy” relationship with Chuck?” I asked.
“I suppose if the topic was up for discussion, perhaps.”
“But wouldn’t you get attached?” Skye looked appalled.
“It would take a miracle for me to get attached to anyone these days.”
“I’ve seen stranger things happen,” I added.
“I think you should think about dating him and then bring up sex,” priss-pot Skye said.
“But the alternative is so much better, Sister Skye. Are you sure you weren’t a nun in your past life?”
“I just think if you gave it a try, you might like it,” Skye coaxed.
“Look at this face,” Harley said pointing her finger at herself. “Does this face look like it wants a committed relationship right about now?”
“And you wonder why you date so many dirt balls?” I added.
“But what if he’s the one?” Skye added her two cents.
“Yeah, you need to stop thinking
