“Well, if you do, let us know. Darnell?”?
?Chapter 15
“Cool story,” Abbysaid. “Why don’t you just move along?”
“Don’t tell me what to do,” Zeke snarled.
“Abby, let’s just go,” Ivy said, tugging on her friend’s arm.
Abby shrugged her off.
“No, I’m not going to let this loser ruin our—”
“There a problem here?”
It was Giga Chad. Now that the blond guy was standing beside Ivy, she realized how big he was. Six three, two-twenty. Solid.
“Yeah, there is a problem here,” Zeke said. His anger had simmered a little in the presence of the much larger man. “This—”
“You want to speak to this guy?”
“No,” Abby snapped. “I want him to leave us the fuck alone.”
Giga Chad faced Zeke, inched forward.
“You heard the woman.”
Zeke’s cheeks reddened again, this time more from embarrassment than fury.
“I—”
“Let’s go.” One of Zeke’s buddies had come up from behind. “Zeke, let’s just get the fuck out of here.”
Ivy didn’t recognize the kid, but he had that frat boy look about him.
Zeke hesitated. The kid pulled.
Zeke eventually lost the battle, but the student kept his intense eyes locked on Ivy until the bar door closed behind him.
Ivy finally let out a breath.
“You okay?” Giga Chad asked.
“Yeah, fine. Thanks,” Abby said.
“He was just drunk. Let me buy you guys a drink. I’m Blake, by the way.”
“I’m Abby. This is Ivy.”
Blue Eyes appeared at Blake’s side.
“I’m Tony.”
“Hi,” Ivy said, still a little taken aback by the violence she’d seen on Zeke’s face.
“We should be buyingyoua drink,” Abby said with a little laugh. “Thank you.”
“How about this? I flip you for it. You win, I’ll buy the first round. I win, you can get me and Tony a beer.”
