Ethan
I smirked. “Malaysia, don’t listen to Tim. I’m not trouble.”
I glanced toward the other end of the bar. I didn’t wait for Malaysia to respond. I needed to change the subject. Abe was taking another order. He strolled back to the computer. “Abe, when you get a moment.”
“Sure, Ethan, I’ll be right over.
Malaysia and I ate in silence. Laughter and loud chatter surrounded around us.
“Ethan, what can I get for you?”
“Abe, please bring Malaysia and I another drink.”
“Two Cosmos coming right up.” He snickered.
Malaysia and I chuckled.
“You said you aren’t trouble but you want to keep my drinks flowing?”
I smiled. “Relaxed, yes. Drunk, no.”
Her eyebrows rose. “Relaxed?”
I ran my hand over my stubbled face. “Malaysia, we are just talking. Unless you had something else in mind.”
We held each other’s gaze.
“Is this how you pick up women?”
“Sometimes, but I rarely take an interest in their day. How was your day?”
She sipped the new drink Abe placed in front of her.
“My day was long. How about yours, Dr. Daniels?”
I smirked over the rim of my new glass of beer. “It wasn’t the best day. I lost a patient.”
Her upward turned lips fell. “Sorry to hear that.”
“I’m supposed to be one of the best doctors in my field.”
“Let’s see what patients are saying about you on Health Grades.”
She whipped out her phone running an internet search. “Hm, it says here you are polite and you have the best bedside manner.”
We laughed.
“Oh, look at you in the stark white doctor coat. Handsome. You have that Adonis look about you. You are tall. What is your height?”
“I’m six-two.” How tall are you?”
“I’m five-five.” Can I continue?”
I nodded. “By all means.”
“You have the perfect curly blond hair, angular jawline, dreamy blue eyes, long eyelashes, and semi-slender nose. Yeah, I’d say you are just about every woman’s dream man.” She smiled arrogantly.
