"She’s cute.”
“Excuse me?” Doris Wolfe turned to address the comment from behind her.
“I said she’s cute.” Blake Marler repeated, stepping up to the bar to join Doris at her side, “Gin and tonic please,” she ordered and then turned her attention towards the wedding reception that was taking place behind them. “A little young, perhaps,” Blake teased, watching the Mayor blush, “but why not?”
“Thank you. I think.” Doris responded, taking a sip of her drink, surveying the reception with Blake.
“Am I missing something?” Blake asked, turning and staring down the taller woman, “I mean first Olivia and Natalia, and then you? I mean, I know Springfield has shortage of available men, believe me, I know, but is there something else I’m missing?”
“Well,” Doris began, breaking Blake’s gaze by averting her eyes towards the crowd then her drink.
“I don’t believe it, Mayor Doris Wolfe, speechless!” Blake teased, gently brushing her hand on Doris’ bare arm.
“I am not.” Doris smiled, warming up to the banter she was generally unaccustomed to. “And you are most definitely missing something.” She raised her eyes to meet Blake’s in a challenge. “Soft skin beside your, a smooth voice in the morning -”
“And someone who never leaves the toilet seat up?” Blake interrupted, a soft smile on her lips.
“Exactly!” Doris held her glass up and tapped it with Blake’s as a small toast. “Besides, she’s just a friend.”
“So you’re not…”
“Not anymore - but I thought it’d be important for Ashlee, and for me, to show up with someone.”
“That’s very…sweet.” Blake said, bumping her shoulder into Doris’
“Sweet? That may be the first time anyone’s ever used that to describe me.” Doris laughed, finishing her drink.
“Well, I still stand by it.” Blake smiled, taking a sip of her drink. “I think she’s calling you over.” She tilted her head towards Ashlee and Jamanda who were waving Doris over.
“So they are.” Doris confirmed, unsure why she wanted to stay here with Blake.
“Save me a dance?” The redhead asked as Doris sputtered; quickly praying she didn’t just shower the woman beside her with her martini.
“Well, show me what I’ve been missing.” Blake challenged playfully, leaning in close to the Mayor “Besides, Olivia said you taught her everything she knows.” And with that, Blake gently pushed Doris towards Ashlee and her date, anticipating her next run in with the Mayor.
