A Cowboy In Love

—1 have fun in my own way.

—And what is that way? He asked of her, staring at her face.

Her heart skipped a beat when Jack's piercing gaze fell on her, all of her nerve endings beginning to collapse. Her gaze lef her frozen, not knowing what to respond, why did he feel like this every time he was near her? Suddenly she noticed that he was tilting his head, he was going to kiss her and she was going to allow it.

-Are here! They were interrupted by Rodrigo and Melisa approaching. Megan snapped out of her trance and prayed that h blushing cheeks would go unnoticed.

“Have you been sitting here all afternoon?” Her friend asked Megan, she was So nervous to answer, she felt the heat of jack's body and there was a kind of tension in the air between them.

Yes in part.

—We've been looking for them everywhere, of course separately! Rio Rodrigo leaning on the railing of the porch of the house.

jack got up from the couch and sat in front of Megan on the porch wall, she could feel his penetrating gaze. Would he feel the same as her? They were about to kiss until they were interrupted.

—1 just got here and ran into Megan.

—Of course! I look at them both.

Melisa sat in the place where Jack was sitting with Megan, she was looking at her with a suppressed smile.

—since the four of us are together, I wanted to ask you if tonight you want to accompany us to a party that will take place at Fat Tony's bar. I have invited Melisa and it would be nice if both of you accompanied us.

—Come on Megan, come with us. She begged her friend.

—1 don't know, I don't have much courage.

~You will have fun. I assure you Rodrigo. She could only feel Jack's gaze on her.

—Yes Meg, let's go.

—Besides, Jack will also accompany us, right, boss?

Well, I didn't expect to go to that party, but if Megan went, she would attend without a doubt. That meeting would be infested with single men looking to pick up a woman and Megan would be an easy target and he wasn't about to accept that.

“Maybe!

—Megan, you can't say no, plus you need to distract yourself. Her friend told her.

Of course she needed him, but away from Jack she was starting to lose her sanity around him.

—Okay, just a little while.

Great then let's go up to see what we can get to wear. See you later guys. Taking her hand I pull her to the front door. “Are you trying to set me up with Jack?”

—No need, Rodrigo and I noticed a while ago that they were about to kiss, don't fool me, you like that cowboy.

-Of course not.

“If as you say! Let's find something to wear instead.

—1 don't think it's necessary to wear something so elegant, you heard it's a bar.

—Don't even believe that on my first date with Rodrigo I'm going to wear jeans. You packed some pretty, fresh dresses for the night, I think they would look perfect on us.

—It's fine as you want.

—Just relax!

Her friend was searching the closet where Megan's clothes had been unpacked and exclaimed with great enthusiasm. ~These two are perfect! I think I'll use green and you should use red, it's very pretty.

—It's nice, Ill use it tonight. OF course she didn’t do it to look pretty for Jack, but for herself, she liked to dress well. —Very well we will be the envy of that bar.

—We shouldn't, the women in this area could take it badly, don't you think?

—Megan, please don't be a party pooper. Don't worry, since when have you become so boring!

That word again, it really had become boring. That afternoon they had dinner a little earlier so that the women could hav more time to get ready. Grandma was happy that they were going out to have fun and she had warned them that she wou not stay up to wait for them.

jack was sitting in his room finishing dressing, it was silly to get so dressed up but he didn’t know why he had finally done it. He clearly remembered when he was sitting with Megan on the porch on the couch, if they had not been interrupted h would have kissed Megan again, but unlike the previous times that afternoon she would kiss back. But why? He thought that she couldn't stand it with his doubts about getting dressed and he left the room, surely Rodrigo would already be downstairs waiting for everyone.

They take too long! Rodrigo exclaimed impatiently.

~That's how women are, you must know it very well, you are quite a don juan.

Take that away from Don Juan, Melisa is going to end up believing it.

—'m not telling lies. She told him with a shrug.

Forget it! Just leave it alone, I like Melisa and I don't want people to think I'm like that.

You like her like everyone else you've dated.

When her friend was going to answer her, they heard noises on the stairs and they both stood up, put their respective ha on their heads, waiting to meet the women. When they came down Jack had been perplexed, Megan was incredibly beautiful, she was wearing a red dress that seemed exclusively designed for her, she had her hair loose and curled, she had almost natural makeup on and it made her look much more delicate than she already was. Jack thought he was going to have a lot of trouble at the bar with that woman if he left her alone.

When the friends finished going down the stairs they approached the men who were waiting for them with their mouths open. Megan thought that was funny, seeing Jack's surprised expression when he saw her dressed like that. That meant that he liked her like Melisa had told him, if that was the case, what was going to happen now? Because she wasn't so indifferent either since in the afternoon they were about to kiss. She didn't know what she would say to him when she finished going down the stairs and had him face to face.

—We're ready guys, sorry for the wait but you know how women are. In the end her friend saved her and was the one who broke the ice.

—Don't worry, with how pretty they looked, they're excused. Rodrigo told him.

Thank you. Both friends said.

jack was still silent, Megan thought he wouldn't say a word since they were accompanied. But she hadn't expected him to take her arm, pull her close to him, and tell him very close to her.

~These, beautiful, may have a lot of problems at that party. She had never paid him a compliment like that, and he had instantly put her on edge.

~Thank you very much, and I doubt you will have problems with us.

—r'm just talking about you, I'l have a lot of problems with you.

—1 don't see why, I won't spend the night dancing with half a party.

That's good, because I wasn't going to let you do it!

She looked at him with her eyes wide open, and what were those outbursts of possession due to?

—Well, lovebirds, enough whispering, and let's go now!

They arrived at a well-lit bar called “We Dance.” Each letter was made of very bright red and green neon lights. The facads was not that of a seedy bar, but was very conservative and very well maintained, there were lots of cars and motorcycles parked. It was a big party, people came out and some came in to stay outside and smoke a cigarette or to get some air. Ja parked his SUV in a special spot reserved for his car; he was a very frequent customer at that bar.

The couples got off and Melisa and Rodrigo immediately held hands, while Jack offered her his arm and she had no choic but to accept it. At the door were two very muscular guards dressed as cowboys. When they approached them, they extended their hand to the boys and let them pass.

—1 see you frequent this bar a lot. She said Megan into her ear as the music was too loud.

—It's the closest, San Antonio is a little far to return at night.

Maybe the waitresses visited him too often, Melisa had told him that the men at the ranch went out a lot with the bar waitresses, Jack couldn't be the exception. A brunette and good-looking waitress approached them, greeted them, indicated an empty table, then asked them what they were going to order for a drink, but that woman couldn't stop smili at Jack. Megan experienced a wave of jealousy of that waitress, it was clear that Jack had had something with that woman and that made her upset.

—what will you girls drink? Jack asked them.

~The same as you. Melisa responded, moving to the rhythm of country music that was playing at that moment.

—Dayana, bring us four beers, please.

—Right away Jack.

Ves, he had definitely had something with that woman, because he was very familiar with her. He didn't think the idea of attending that party now was the best of ideas.

—Let's dance Mel. Rodrigo took his partner to the center of the dance floor where several couples were dancing to the rhythm of the music. Megan had never danced to country music but she looked fun.

“You want to dance? Jack asked him.

—Hmm... Maybe later, the truth is I don’t know how to dance to that type of music.

-1 teach you! Her voice sounded so erotic in her ear, she was getting excited like a teenager.

The drinks arrived, Jack paid for them and the waitress immediately left for another table. Whatever they had had apparently ended long ago.
