Garrick just glared at him.
Talia sneered at him.
Dominik just sat there, stony-faced, showing no reaction at all.
And Ethan... well... he looked at Garrick, Talia, and me and asked, “Yeah, for once I’m with Alec. What the hell did he do now?”
I took a pull of my beer as Garrick, Talia, and Dominik looked at me, letting me take the lead on this conversation, and I didn’t mind it in the slightest.
Therefore, I said, “You said that Vickie was your girl, right?”
Alec nodded, “Yeah.”
“Okay. Well, since you said she was your girl, that means that you're committed to her and she’s committed to you. Which means that you don’t allow other women to touch you intimately. Means you don’t allow yourself to be put ina situation where another woman even has a molecule of a thought that she has a chance with you.”
Alec opened his mouth, but I kept going.
“So, flirting with another woman is a no-no. Winking at another woman is also a no-no. And you were doing all that tonight. Giving that other woman signs that you were interested. So, giving that woman those signs and thinking that you're interested, she’s going to make a play for you. Coming over here and sitting on your lap and whispering in your ear...” I pointedly looked at the woman in his lap.
Ethan got it, so he nodded.
Alec opened his mouth, but again, I wasn’t finished.
“So, with all that, you're honestly surprised that she didn’t appreciate watching her man flirt with another woman, wink at another woman, and when said woman climbed in your lap and whispered in your ear with your girlfriend sitting right beside you?”
The woman got what I was saying just then, nodded, climbed off of Alec’s lap, and winced, “Yeah, didn’t know he was taken.” Then she looked down at Alec, “You showed me you were on the market and interested. If you have a girl, don’t do that shit.” Then she looked at all of us, “Tell her I’m sorry.”
Talia smiled at her and winked, “Don’t you worry about it. You did nothing wrong,” and then she reached over and slapped Alec upside the back of his head.
Doing the same thing we all wanted to do to him.
The woman walked away.
Vickie had walked away, and Alec was still sitting there, flabbergasted.
Hint, he was still sitting there, not going after Vickie to apologize.
I inwardly groaned.
He just lost her. I was sure of it.
My phone buzzed in my pocket. Leaning back, I pulled it from my pocket.
Tapping the screen, seeing whose name was on there, I felt a small smile grace my lips.
Opening the text, I read Harlee Belle’s words.
Darling – Next time hail breaks one of my windows, I’m checking into a motel.
Me – Why?
Darling – Because I don’t want to hear my parents having sex.
I snickered and felt eyes on me.
Me – It’s awesome that their still in love. Going strong. *eggplant emoji*
Darling – I just puked in my mouth.
