Excerpt
I tried my best to ignore
him, but I could feel his eyes settling on me. I took a deep breath when he got
up and sat next to me. “Well, at least I know your real name now.” I shook my
head, still trying to avoid eye contact. “So, how’s your ass doing?”
“What!?” I finally turned my head and looked directly at
him.
“From your fall the other day.” I looked away. “Was I
really that much of an ass to you during high school that you are still
carrying a grudge all these years later?”
“Don’t flatter yourself. It has nothing to do with you.”
“Oh, okay. So, are you bitchy like this to every guy you
come in contact with?”
“Yeah, maybe I am! What’s it to you?”
He held his hand up in defense. “Doesn’t matter to me one
bit, sweetheart, but you’ve clearly been shafted by a guy a time or two to have
an attitude like that. I mean, don’t get me wrong. The bitchy ones are better
in bed with all that pent-up aggression.” He smirked and took a sip of his
beer.
“Oh, you are such a pig, you know that? You are the same
arrogant ‘I’m so in love with myself’ jock you were back in school! Well,
reality check. Despite the fact you may have never grown up, most women have.
So your good looks, perfect body, and smooth talking will no longer work.” He chuckled loudly. “What’s so
funny?”
“I think you just admitted you thought I was good-looking
and had a perfect body.”
“No. That’s not what –” He had me feeling so flustered.
“I meant MEN, in general!”
“Whatever you say, princess.”
“My name is Melanie! Oh, wait. Maybe you’ll remember Smellanie better!”
His grin widened. “Ahhhh, now I remember you! You were
that cute little blonde girl who used to sit in front of me in French class.
You were the little goody two-shoes who always knew exactly how to respond in
perfect French to the teacher, while the rest of us struggled to maintain a D
average. You know you really didn’t smell, right? That was just a nickname for
you.”
“I know I never smelled, thank you very much!”
