“Wow, I never had such an intriguing offer before. That’s good to know. If I ever want in your pants, I’ll show up with a bag of tacos and tell you to drop your pants,” she says dryly.
I choke on my food but, once I clear out my throat, I burst out in laughter.
“Well, now you have to tell me what kind of food you would drop your pants for,” I say before taking a bite and moaning loudly.
Her eyes widen and her cheeks turn pink. “Wow, that was pornographic,” she says with a chuckle.
“I can’t help it; they are as good as they smell,” I tell her with a shrug. “Now answer the question,” I say, raising an eyebrow at her.
She takes the time to think it over. “Well, I guess since I brought you my favourite food it would have to be these burritos. They are made with homemade tortillas. I eat there at least three times a week.”
“See? We were destined to be best friends. We have amazing taste in food,” I tell her with a smile.
My dad walks out from his office and sees the both of us sitting there giggling.
“What’s going on here?” he asks before taking a seat beside me.
“We are just having lunch. Talking about food,” I tell him, which causes both of us to laugh again.
“Ana, you know you don’t have to bring your own drinks. You can help yourself to whatever is at the bar,” he says while looking at the box by Ana’s feet.
“Oh, I know. I normally would, but you guys don’t carry coolers. Which I guess makes sense since it’s mostly the brothers drinking and there haven’t been many Old Ladies around in years,” she tells him with a shrug.
“We will have to change that. I have a feeling that things are going to change around here as far as Old Ladies go,” he says with a smile.
“Thank you,” Anastasia says with a small smile.
My dad gets up to leave, so Anastasia and I are alone again.
“Let’s play a game after we eat,” I say.
“What did you have in mind?” she asks warily.
“Nothing crazy,” I tell her.
That’s how we end up sitting on the couch and flinging hair ties at a stack of empty cans. Every time Anastasia finishes a drink, she places another one on the stack.
It’s not the craziest thing we could be doing, but I never realised how competitive Anastasia was until now.
Every time she gets one, she shouts and jumps up off the couch.
“Yes! I win again! You lose, sucker! Time to pay up!” she says with her fists in the air as she dances around in a circle.
“I don’t think I have ever seen Anastasia so excited,” mutters someone.
I freeze through my laughter and look at the doorway to see Tiny, Zane, Knuckles, and Viking standing there watching us.
“How long have you been standing there?” Ana asks them with an embarrassed expression.
“Enough to see you whoop some ass,” Knuckles says with a cheer.
“Well, it was all I could do since Dani isn’t well enough to put out for tacos,” she says with a sigh.
Their jaws all drop open. “I’m sorry, what?” Zane asks.
“Don’t listen to her; she’s drunk,” I say, waving off Anastasia.
“Rage, what’s with your woman always trying to take mine?” Viking asks, walking into the room and grabbing Anastasia to pull her onto his lap.
