Excerpt:
“My name is Nevi, Nevi Sharpe,” he said with a deep, sultry accent. “May I ask
with whom I have the pleasure of sharing scratch-off tickets?”
I wanted to answer him but I was still stuck on stupid. I opened my mouth to speak
and absolutely nothing came out.
How embarrassing.
How ridiculous.
How mortifying.
He was just a man, after all. What was my issue?
I just couldn’t move past the sense of magnificence that permeated the air around
him. It was both electrifying and nerve wracking.
“You have a phone call,” blurted the bland voice of Miss Congeniality as she
approached my newly discovered god-man with a cordless phone.
“Please excuse me,” he murmured in my direction as he snapped the phone from
the clerk’s hand, obviously unhappy to be disturbed.
“Lizzy. Lizzy Ewing,” I forced past my lips as he stood up. “My name’s Lizzy
Ewing.”
I could feel flames consume my cheeks when I realized how desperate my voice
must have sounded. He studied me with dancing eyes—momentarily forgetting his
annoyance about the phone call.“Nice to meet you, Lizzy Ewing,” he said warmly.
“Please excuse me.”
With that, he lifted the phone unceremoniously to his ear and disappeared through
a doorway behind the counter. I assumed it led to his office. At the faint sound of another
door shutting behind that door, I felt I assumed right.
The clerk shuffled through the array of lotto tickets spread out on the counter in
front of me with a notable smirk on her broad, acne infested face before looking up at me.
“That’ll be twenty-five dollars,” she stated smugly.
I stood there looking at her for a brief moment while it registered with me…I was
getting stuck with the entire bill of my not so private scratch-off tryst!
