| "So?"AJ anxiously inquired the next afternoon. He popped in one of the security tapes. He quietly watched himself being dissed by the only woman he thought could make him happy. It killed him to watch her stay in a marriage he knew his friend was destroying by the day and he couldn't help either one of them but he wanted Melissa so bad he could feel it every time he saw her. "Okay. So you kissed her. Shit. I'd have given it to ya just for the one she laid on you in front of Howie last night. She's repressing something for you dude." "Well duh,"he returned childishly."I'm not stupid. I just have to figure out which button is gonna push her out of that prim and proper mode and into my arms." "The way Howie's been lately, I don't think it's gonna take but another girl." "And what are you suggesting?" "We're not doing this for the money any more Nick. I wanna see if she'll break" "So what'd you have in mind?" "We set Howie up. He's bound to take the bait the state he's in these days." "I don't know about you,but my conscience wouldn't feel so good about doing that to a friend." "Look Nick. You can't have too much of one if you were gonna take advantage of her weakened state last night." "But another girl Age? That's like throwing a dog a bone." "Exactly and if I were doing this myself, I'd have already had the girl in bed; protests or not." "Okay but you take the fall as well as I do if he ever finds out about this." "Sure thing." |
