Jeez What the heck is going on? Maybe the grocery store is being robbed Holy Hot Pockets What if there is a grocery store heist going down? I’m about to abandon my cart in a bid to find Marley and escape the mayhem I’ve created in my head It’s all very dramatic As I turn, I come face-to-face with the suit

I suck in a breath and slap my hand over ritty with salt-sweat, so I drop it quickly, because ew

“Hi” His expression is hard to read He see

“Hi, hey Uh…” I wave a hand around in the air, a little flustered, and conflicted, because it’s not often I get approached by a guy this hot—and in a grocery store of all places Maybe he’ll be here again next week “I’m sorry, I’d like to stare at your pretty face, I o”

I try to step around hi a linebacker stance, as if he’s considering tackling e an introduction

“Recognize me?” he asks, one perfect eyebrow arched

As I take hiht’ve run into hiht brown hair is neatly styled, and the cut of his suit highlights all of his assets Well, the visible PG ones, anyway

He widens his stance and crosses his arms over his chest His very broad chest The sleeves of his suit jacket pull tight, biceps bulging and flexing He’s a bit intirocery store, so I feel relatively safe And he’s just so gorgeous Which is a silly reason not to be concerned, some of the most notorious serial killers are attractive rocery store is really under attack—although maybe this suit could save us

I adopt his crossed ar All I succeed in doing is aardly squeezingthe right one with the Sharpie “Should I?”

He looks ets stuck on the Sharpie for a few seconds before they come back up to my eyes

It’s possible I met him in a bar, but I swear I’d remember his face if I did The bar scene is also more my sister’s speed than it isme for her It’s happened before

While we look nearly identical at first to most people, we’re actually fraternal twins After a few interactions, most people can tell us apart I have a distinctive Marilyn Monroe ht side above reen Myfor my face, my lips a little too full and my nose too small At least that’sof the two of us and an inch taller And about ten pounds lighter

Marley is a little less cautious than I am with men, so there have been a few uncomfortable occasions where her previous hookups have approachedwhy I haven’t returned their calls It’s too bad if this is the case, because this guy is inordinately attractive and it would be nice if he wasn’t one of my sister’s castoffs
