“I saw you yesterday on a billboard in LA” Alht than she was in the ad Talia’s the latest model for a famous jeans company In the ad, she was sprawled across a dude’s lap, nude except for a couple of triangles of cloth over her breasts The ure out if she was selling jeans or so else

“That’s not what I mean and you know it” She ether”

“I have coirl turns away fro on Talia and me

“But, Finn, I’m not always available” She flicks her hair over one shoulder and then draws a hand down her chest in what I think is supposed to be an erotic hter of my mom’s best friend, so I can’t exactly tell the woman to move because she’ll rat me out and then I’ll have to listen to a lecture by my mom about how I need to be more open to relationships and shit like that But maybe this time I’ll be in one and I can finally fulfill randmother

“Talia, you’re a nice girl, but it’s never going to work out between us I’m not interested”

Her face screws up “Your dick must be dead then because there isn’t a man alive that wouldn’t want me”

I don’t really care what Talia thinks of my dick “Sure Go with that”

“Iupto see who could take me out”

My girl starts to move toward the exit

“You should definitely pick one of them Take them out and I’ll pay for your date” I jerk my thumb over my shoulder “Rydell is over there Just tell him how much you want and he’ll write you a check”

I take off Behind me, I hear Talia yell, “you can’t buy me! I’m too expensive for you”
