Chapter 19 -Katie Benson- 29 years old

  Katie and Dani both pulled up to the bar at the same time. Neither of them hesitated to shut their car off. Dani climbed up on the driver’s seat reaching back into the back seat of the car. The blonde was still in her scrubs from work and needed desperately to find something better. Two men came to a halt outside the car. The street light on the road in front of her car coupled with the light that hung off the wall of the bar made it easy to see through the windshield of Dani’s car. Dani turned around just in time to catch peepers. Katie walked over to her friend’s car just in time to spook them. She glanced over at her friend, catching a glimpse of her thong poking out from beneath her scrubs. “Yeah I hope you got a good look!” Dani shouted at the two, opening the door to her car. “Because I know you can’t afford this booty!”

  “Pervs!” Katie shouted, opening her arms for her a hug from her best friend. “Hey Beautiful! How was work?”

  “So Long!” Dani replied, hugging her friend with one arm and using the other to pull up her scrub bottoms. “Sorry for changing my tone, darling. My Patient was giving me a dirty look for saying his last name. I keep forgetting that I’m not supposed to use last names.” She with a roll of her eyes. “Soo give me all the details, girl. How is it being married to one of the richest guys in town?”

  “Terrible!” Katie responded, rolling her eyes at her best friend. “You know Money isn’t everything, right?”

  “Oh my God, did you start drinking before you came here?” Dani exclaimed, taking a step back.”I don’t want to have to be the double D, Darling. There’s no way you’re going to stop me from getting in a few shots for myself.”

  “Dani, sweetheart.” Katie said with a wide eyed expression. “They have names for people like you and it certainly doesn’t involve the word “Goddess.””

  “Whatever!” the blond said, shaking her head. “So what’s wrong with him then Katie?” Dani asked with an annoyed sigh.

  “What’s wrong is we have nothing in common.” Katie shouted and let her head drop. There was an air of defeat in her voice. “All he does is work all the time. Then when he comes home tired and irritable.” The frustration was causing the redhead to get choked up in her speech. “All he ever talks about is his job. . .” a tear trickled down Katie’s cheek. “I can only hear about tickets and drug busts for so long before it all starts to sound the same to me.” Katie attempted to swallow her discontent.

  “That sounds exciting!” Dani said, offering a hug to her friend. “If you don’t want him, can I have him?”

  Oh my God Dani! You know what? Take him! He’s all yours!” Katie screamed, pushing her friend away. “I’ll give you my house key and you can go right up into the bedroom. Just take off your scrubs and meet him in that little piece I just saw sticking out of your scrubs.” Katie’s emotions were running high. Her thoughts were on overdrive and her heart was pounding out of her chest. Tears cascaded down her cheeks, staining the blood red blouse that covered her thin torso. “That sort of thing doesn’t appeal to me! It never has!” Dani looked at her friend in disbelief. She tried to muster up a response, but she couldn’t come up with anything. She tore her gaze away from her friend, trying to shake off the verbal thrashing at the hands of her ginger haired friend. Danielle managed to swallow her pride for long enough to offer Katie a warm hug.

  “Oh Darling,” she finally managed to say. “There there, honey. It’s okay.” Katie finally caved in and melted into her friend’s embrace. Dani had a lot she wanted to say, but she kept the words in her head. Katie cried into her friend’s chest. Dani could feel the tears dampening her scrubs and pressing against her chest. Dani turned around and grabbed the pink leather purse from the passenger seat of her car. “Come on Sweetie. Let’s redo your makeup and clean up your tears. Then you can go in and get a seat at the bar, while I find another place to park and change out of my scrubs.”

  “Okay, thank you.” Katie nodded, trying to swallow her tears. She opened the passenger’s side door of Dani’s car and slipped into the front seat. Dani’s car was littered with all sorts of scrubs, makeup sponges, brushes, Shopping bags and fast food bags. Katie always thought Dani was a little messy for someone so pretty. Dani rummaged around in her purse for a moment before taking out her concealer and mascara. Katie took a deep breath and closed her eyes, waiting for her friend to begin.
