“I just want to say thanks Carmen…for doing this. She’s a real good kid she just never got a break.” he sit looking around the room, his hand wrapped around the cup of coffee.

“Yeah well…you needed help and we can help.” I can hear there footsteps move in time on the stairs, and I see her walking down her hand on the railing. “So you all set up?”

She has amazing grey eyes; they swirl with this thick smoke that hides everything. She stands apart from us, nothing more than a few steps away but always away. What does she think of us? Can I really fucking do this? Can Shane?

“Yeah,” she barely speaks above a whisper, but there is something that shines in her eyes when she looks at us.

“Jax uh do you have something for us to sign?” her hand brushing over my arm, sending those shocks through out my body, her fingers finding there place in my hand.

“Yeah, you guys have to sign this.” he pulls out a folder, handing it to Shane. “Just there and there.”

He points to each line grabbing the pen from her hand as soon as she’s finished writing her name. Her letters thin and slanted, each letter flowing freely in the next and I love watching her hand move as she writes.

“What the hell type of signature is that Cutch? You can barely read it.” he hands me the pen, the scratching of the pen ringing though the silence and I try not to laugh when Shane flips him off. “Ok then…I got to get this to the agency, so be good. I’ll come by to check on how things are going? And Cutch don’t mess this girl up, I don’t want to see her modeling underwear anytime soon.”

Her face flushing a deep red, her eyes flaring into this sudden anger and I can’t help but laugh. She glares at him and he smiles that smile, turning to Alexis. He just stands close to her, not saying anything but waiting for something to happen. He walks out with his sunglasses in hand, closing the door a little too loudly. Shit now what?

“Uhm so are you hungry?” for some reason it’s the only thing I can think to say.
