Chapter 10: Ambush
I quickly got ready for work. A comfy pair of black jeans and light sweater and I was ready to face the day. Not ready to face Freakles this morning so I made a mad dash to the Yellow Beast. No muddy foot prints on my favorite pair of jeans! Still had to wash the pair from yesterday.
As I pulled into my parking spot I noticed a couple of teenagers sitting at one of my outside tables. When I made my way to the door the boy asked me what time we opened. I told then to give me ten minutes and I would be opened. The girl was bouncing she was so excited to see what books I had come in. I asked if they were Zoe's friends, sure enough the girl was her sister.
Lacey Rose was already in the café getting the different coffees and cold brews ready. Oh my the place smelled freaking amazing!! I got my cup of coffee and took a quick sip. I figured I would go ahead and let the teens in. The two were a bundle of excitement bith quickly bought and new book and went and got themselves something from the cafe.
The boy, James asked me if I could order him some historical biographies. He had read most of what the school had. I told him I could he just needed to make me a wish list and I would start ording a couple new ones weekly unless he wanted something speical and i would put the order in for him. I had to ask, I wanted to know if his reading choice was for the school or if he really enjoyed biographies. I was overly surprised when he said for pleasure.
There was a noise at the door. I looked up and there was Annie trying to come through with a huge box. I had to laugh the box was totally winning! It would not fit through the door. I rushed over to help. Between the two of us we got the thing through the door. Annie was looking overly pleased with herself. I was almost afraid to ask what was in the box. The box was big enough I could have lived in the thing.
Annie laughed and asked me if I was going to open the box. SHe was so excited you could have thought it was Christmas. I opened the box and looked inside... All i could see was book fabric. I had to have Annie's help trying to get the thing out of the box. We had to flip the box upside down and shake . Out popped two hug bean bags! Annie just giggled the chairs were for the children and teen sections.
I looked at Annie she said she seen them and could not resist. She said she went to her sisters store and there were twelve chairs all piled together and had to have these. She said they were nerdy and fun and instantly thought of me. She giggled and gave me a hug so that I wasn't offended. My friends are so sweet...sometimes.
I needed a coffee refill. So Annie and I headed over to the café. Lacey Rose handed us a muffin and told us to go sit down and she would bring our drinks. Next thing I know I am getting ambushed and asked a thousand questions about Myke and me. By how red my face got they could tell something went on. I didn't say a word they just kept going on and on.
Lacey Rose said I didn't need to say anything I had the walk of shame going on. She had mock horror written all over her face. She told me " Good ladies don't fool around on the first date... you wait till the second!" She busted out laughing, "said it was about time I got out of my man funk and got me a nice piece of ass!"
Annie on the other hand looked all serious for once. Told me has she know I was a hoe hoe she never would have set me up with her own flash and blood. Both ladies were laughing so hard that they about fell out of their chairs. I told them that they were "aging ladies like yourselves should not laugh so hard people will mistake you for a couple of old donkeys. Plus there is the possibility you could pee yourselves".
I somehow ended up with a piece of muffin in my hair. I am not one hundred percent sure who threw it at me. We were all giggling so hard that none of us heard the door open. We looked up an their stood Myke grinning. I thought Lacey Rose was going to die from embarrassment. Annie on the other hand had to tease her cousin about everything. None of us ladies were sure how much of the conversation Myke over heard but we were gong to pretend like nothing happened.
