Excerpt #2:
“You know this
town better than I do. The only place I know that’s open this time of night is
Denny’s.”
“That sounds
better than Waffle House.” Wayne
steered the car in the right direction.
Once seated,
Gretchen with a cup of hot chocolate, and Wayne with coffee, and several bacon
strips to share, Wayne revealed his turmoil.
“I can’t believe I
didn’t see the signs.” He shook his head. “I
mean, at first, and please don’t take this the wrong way in any shape or form,
but the majority of the girls who hang around the House play by the same rules. There’s no getting serious, they are
there strictly for the fun, and if it lasts for a while, it’s great.” He
shrugged. “If it doesn’t last longer
than one night, hey, that’s cool, and they move on. But Elicia...” He paused. “I don’t
know what she’s told you about us, but tonight, she made it clear she’s
planning long-term, and I don’t want that.”
“The only thing
she’s said is how wonderful, and sweet, and sexy you are.” Gretchen sipped her
hot chocolate. “And she glows
whenever she talks about you, but even I notice she has a tendency to boss you
around sometimes.”
“Yeah.” Wayne smiled. “At first it
was cool, you know, kind of fun, because later, I would boss her around. And she didn’t seem to mind it, but lately, she’s fucking insane. She’s actually making plans for things
I never dreamed about doing.”
“Such
as...marriage?” Gretchen seemed to hesitate over the word.
“God, has she
talked about marriage?” Wayne
set down his coffee cup. “God damn, we’ve only been together six weeks.”
“Calm down."
She placed a hand on his arm. “I
thought that’s what you were talking about. What
plans is she making?”
“Oh, the damn
Halloween party, Thanksgiving, and that stupid Christmas Formal."

My, my, Elicia certainly gets around. First she's kissing on Brent in excerpt 1, now she's making Christmas plans with Wayne today. I'm intrigued by the plot of this story!!
LOL:) I hope you enjoy it!
