Appreciating Pink Update!!!
Last time on Appreciating Pink. Reed gets up the nerve to talk to the hunky, hott Sean...
“Uh, Reed...if you need a ride, I can give you one...”
I stood, silent, staring blankly into Sean’s face. I had just realized her tiny mole on her upper left cheekbone and couldn’t bring myself to look away from it. I couldn’t stop looking at her.
“Yeah, Sure…Thanks.” I finally responded.
I let Freddy and everyone else know that I had a ride and they could all go home. Freddy looked at me, and dripping with sarcasm, raised her eyebrows while licking her lips. I shot her a look, innocently shrugged, and she just rolled her eyes.
Sean had taken a stool back at the bar and was nursing what looked like a jack and coke. She smiled as I walked back over. She pulled out a cigarette and I pulled out my lighter. She held it steady with her long, slender fingers, and I lit it.
“Shall we go?” she asked me before taking a long drag of her cigarette.
Sean waved over Janene, and pulled out a ten-dollar bill.
“Last one’s on me, hunny, welcome home.” She winked at him.
Janene flirted with every dyke that would let her. Since she owned the bar she could pretty much get away with anything. Everyone genuinely loved her for her constant banter, gruff exterior, and kindness to every female that walked into the bar. It felt like home, if you could get past the drama and didn’t mind a smoke-filled bar.
On the way home I sat in Sean’s truck being bounced around in the passenger’s seat. She drove fast, and didn’t avoid potholes. The ride was fairly quiet and since I only lived 15 blocks away, it was short. I was about to get out of her truck when she put her hand on my arm.
“Reed, I really want to see you again.”
I could feel my whole body flush. My cheeks were hot, and my breath had quickened.
“Really, when do you want to hang out?” I managed to push past my lips.
“I don’t want to hang out.”
My heart skipped a beat.
“I want to sleep with you.”
I thought I was going to piss myself. I couldn’t stop myself from letting my mouth fall open. Deep down I knew she’d probably done this with dozens of chicks, but I wanted to hold on to the thought that I might have been special. It took no effort on her part, to have me in the palm of her hand. That’s exactly where I was, and I didn’t mind at all. I hadn’t gotten laid in so long that when I weighed out my options, I didn’t mind the idea of a one night stand. I could feel her stare burning into the side of my face, so I turned and looked at her. The look on her face was soft, but hungry. I could tell that she’d meant every word she’d been saying.
