The hunk
Humming beneath my breath I grabbed up my purse and headed out the door. My earphones firmly placed in my ears, my hair swang loose around me.
I sang with Jason Mraz and slipped on my happy sparkly rainbow shoes.
As i passed the window in my dining room I paused.
My singing faltered.
I stared.
Hmm.
I watched a mans head fall back as he laughed. My eyes zeroed in on his throat.
I could feel his laughter but not hear it.
Moving closer to the window I noticed his dark hair pulled back into a short pony tail. Tattooed words...just peeked out over his white shirt.
My eyebrow raised. Damn near 6 feet tall.
He had a hat pulled low and with a flick of his wrist he raised a zippo to light the cigarette that was pursed between his lips.
He smiled and nodded as he conversed with another man.
Hmm..
Taking my keys I headed off to run my errands.
Later as I pulled into my driveway I noticed him sitting and chatting with liz. My neighbor. I stared over at him for a moment and opened my car door.
I smiled and as I walked I heard a whistle.
Pausing I looked back. His head was down, but his lips were smiling.
Too my right sat Mio (my beast of a neighbor) and various other guys.
My eyes skinnied up and I marched to the fence.
"I know you didn't whistle at ME Mio!"
"Ahhhhh calm dowwwwwn Laurieeee" Mio always smiles. His eyes are always skinnied up from smoking too much ganja.
"It wasnt meeeeee!" He laughed and as he did the bar in his eyebrow shone.
"Your lucky your CUTE pendejo!"
They all laughed and as I walked away I swung my hips a bit...just cuz i wanted too.
As I came into the house I returned to the window. Looking out.biting my lip
Hmm
I texted Dawn with the stats, and went outside when Liz called me.
I smiled and took her offered tomatoes and zuchinii. Mmm homegrown!
"Ill be right back I gatta put these in the fridge!"
Glancing outside The hunk was standing around the corner where liz was waiting for me. He hurridly ran a comb through his hair, his hat was under his arm. I saw him smooth his shirt and replace his hat before turning the corner. He stopped when he saw liz and turned away.
Giggeling to myself I hopped down the steps. I smiled and looked around, chatted to liz for a moment and he walked behind her. Pausing a moment, He looked at me out of the corner of his eye.
"Who's the hunk in your yard Liz?"
He paused and turned around smiling.
"Oh the hunk huh? You noticed didja"
"Course I did.." I said to her
"Hi..Im laurie.." i said putting my hand out to him.
"Hi Laurie....Dustin" He took my hand. On his thumb he wore a silver ring. I glanced at it, smiled into his eyes and continued talking to Liz.
He backed away, smiling and Liz whispered "He was asking about you..."
"was he now?" I smiled at her and looked over at him
"Yes...he likes the fluffies"
"He does?" I laughed and smiled. "Perfect.."
She smiled at me "I told him to get inline."
"He can cut...im wicked nice like that...How old is he?"
"Young."
"HOW Young...please say 25 or older."
She cringed.
"Lie to me Liz."
"Im pretty sure he JUST turned 25."
"Perfect." I smiled.
And I walked back into my home.
