Jill  the blonde healthclub bombshell 60sJoeyHeathertonesque Bardotlips matureMonroecool admitted blithely somewhat embarrassed to his query that she did not sip tequila for Cinco de Mayo or nosh Mexican fare

Wha

I’m terrible, aren’t I?

you never let a fish off the hook  You are

You’re not going to give me any slack, are you?

she must not ever have fished No I gotcha Id like to hear why not After all it is a quintessential California celebration if not wholly an American one

Yes. You have a point.

Point and shoot baby    And

And . . . If I drink tequila I go crazy, like some people on whisky, not violent, just a little out of my head.

Sounds terribly appealing to me  a lost opportunity   opportunities

You’re sweet.

Mebbe

she laughed soft music flowing from her throat

You celebrated

I did.

And    Quit make me pulling teeth  I can be adept at it

I did! I did.  I um sipped X-Rated.  You know X-Rated?

I know X-Rated  Its pink

It is.

I work at a liquorstore  We keep it behind glass

Yes, why do you do that? It’s, what, twentyfive twentysix dollars. It’s not expensive.

Thats not the point

It isn’t?

No  The point is that youll have to ask to have the case opened to get to it We like exposing X-Raters Hang you out to dry For what you are

No.  

You’re teasing me.

Im teasing youyou brought up x-rated How is it youre not the tease

What?

Yes

If I was going to tease you . .

. . This is better than I could ever have hoped for  Imagine  It all began to step up my workmans comp  Suddenly Im up to my eyeballs in x-rated  with a beautiful woman   I should be so lucky

she blushed
The colour looks good on you  rosehue against your blondeness   an I rarely notice blondes

Thank you.

Thank you  Evidently talk of x-rated is good for the circulationIm definitely circulating

Ohmygoodness.

No  My goodness

Though Id share

Im not greedy

her wide eyes and expression made up nicely for her silence

could be the beginning of a beautiful thing
