He didn’t answer.
“Exactly.”
He gave a deep chuckle and shrugged his shoulders. “Baby, this is not up for discussion. We’re taking you out wearing a dress… and maybe a little make–up.”

The loud snort. I let out startled the customer that had just walked in. “Make–up? I don’t think so. I don’t even know how to put on make up. It’s not like I had a mom long enough to teach me after all, and all the girls from school caked it on way too much for me to even bother. I tried mascara once and nearly poked my eye out. I’d screamed so loud from the pain that Ethan’s mother had. threatened to call an ambulance until she’d figured out what I was doing. She’d chuckled, got me a wet cloth to soothe my swollen stinging eye, and offered to help me. I declined and swore off make–up then. Heauty wasn’t worth that much pain.
“We’ll see,” he said, offering me a mischievous smile as 1 placed his box of muffins in front of him.
He brought out his Visa Platinum and as I handed him the receipt, he picked the box up and a small nod to the gentleman beside him as he walked out, but not before shooting me an I’m gonna–win–this–battle type of look.
With
a sigh of defeat, knowing he probably would win, I turned my attention back to the older man with white hair cotton ball–like eyebrows. “Hello and welcome to The Coffee Barn….
As the last customer of the night goes, Cotton Brow was rather pleasant of the old man variety. Sure he included some sexual innuendoes but, unlike others, they were harmless and after I’d given him his order for two he’d hurried off claiming his wife would kill him if her coller was cold.
I’d just flipped the open sign to close and was about to start shutting down the register when I heard a gentle tapping on the window. I glanced up, a wad of cash held limply in my hands, to see Seth holding the most beautiful dress I’d ever seen in my life up to the window. He wiggled it and nodded at the locked door.
“Whoa,” Megan mumbled as for you?”
With a dry mouth, I nodded.

“Oh puh–lease,” I grumbled, quickly counting out the ones.

My lips curled into a pout as a bit of jealousy reared its head in my gut. He hadn’t complimented me at all, but I wasn’t gonna be one of those girls that searched for them. Still, he could’ve said something nice. It didn’t matter that my hair was in a messy ponytail or that it was unnaturally curly from the sweat that had accumulated on my skin throughout the day.
