door.”
“No problem babe.”
“Jesus,” she said shaking her head as she picked up the tray and went to deliver the drinks.
Chapter 2
I sat by the bar and waited for Sally to return. There was no way I was going to leave here without at least getting a drink with her and perhaps a lot more. It feels good to be on the road but even better to slide into something hot and wet. I smiled at her as she came back to the bar.
“What are you still doing here?” She motioned to several of the girls around the bar. Surely there’s a bunch of women here you could pick from. She pointed to a brunette with the cowboy boots and long skirt. “Hey, what about that one?”
“ Nah, not interested. I got my mind fixed on just one. A long legged, incredibly sexy, blond.” I took as swig of my beer. “Hey, I’m getting empty here.” Sally popped another cap and brought me a new beer.
“Hon, you gotta work on those lines.”
“Why?” I said. “I saw you lookin at me.”
“I was not, your dreamin.” Sally ran a cloth along the bar.
“No, I saw you,” I said. “You were undressing me with your eyes.”
“ Oh get real, shit.” Sally laughed. “All I saw was a stinky biker.”
I sipped my beer and smiled. “Then you do admit it, you were lookin. Well darlin, did you see anything you like?”
“I just saw a guy, that’s all, a regular guy.” She went back to pouring beers.
“I think you saw a lot more.” I smiled at her.
“Well I think you have had too much to drink because you’re delusional.”
“I tell you what,” I said . “I’ll go and leave you alone if you’ll have a beer with me after work. Just a beer that’s all. I’ve been on the road a long time, I just need some company.” I looked at her and saw that tension there, her face was turning red. She wanted me as much as I wanted her. She wouldn’t admit it. No one wants to, were too afraid, too damn afraid.
She put down her tray. “You know what, this day has been such pure hell, I could use a drink or two. Ok, you win, I’ll have a beer with you. Now I got to do this job so be back in two hours when the bar closes. I won’t wait if you’re not here.”
“Oh don’t worry , I’ll be waiting.”

I took my beer and left her alone but I didn’t want to leave her alone. I wanted her there on the bar. Damn, I have never wanted a woman so bad. I mingled in the bar and even talked to a couple of women who tried to pick me up but I just didn’t care. They could have all been naked at that point. The band winded down and the dance floor cleared. I had a couple of games of pool with Billy and he won both times. He was a good player and I lost 20 dollars, I gotta remember not to gamble.
I watched Sally and from time to time her eyes would meet mine. There was no denying the attraction. You can tell when someone is going to brush you off, you just know. I didn’t feel that with her. The night wound down and everyone went home. I found a comfortable chair and relaxed, waiting for her.
One of the barmaids waved to Sally from the doorway. “See ya later, Sal.”
“Ok, goodbye Susan, say hello to Dan for me.”
“I will, you take care.”
Sally finished cleaning the bar and brought a tray with four beers on it over to me. She sat down, popped two caps and put her feet up on another chair. She took one long pull on the beer and drained almost half of it.
“Oh, that tastes good,” she said. She put the bottle down on the table. “I needed that.”
“Maybe you should have brought six of em, make it a real party.” I took a long drink after pouring my beer in a glass.
Sally picked up her beer again and took another drink. “You have no idea how damn stressful it is tryin to run this bar with my dad in the hospital, I hardly get time to go see him.”
“Can’t you get someone to cover for you?” I said. “Maybe just a break is all you need.”
“I don’t trust anyone to look after this place. This was my dad’s
