Gabriel's Promise (A Romantic Comedy)
“Charlie browbeat her into showing me around their little town later in the afternoon.
We walked the entire thing in less than half an hour; it literally consisted of the school, which catered to kindergarten through twelfth grade. The diner the Lodge where the billiard hall was located and a grocery store. There were some other little Knick knack type places but nothing major.
It was kind of quaint though, and would've been nice except for the rain, it was cloudy when we left and seemed to stay that way. In fact it had been either cloudy or raining since I arrived.
It was quite an education to watch how the locals reacted to Samantha. The older men treated her like one of their grand kids, if only with a little subtle flirting thrown in for good measure, which seemed to go right over my flowers' head.
The older women seemed a little disapproving if not leery, but still with a touch of indulgence, while the young men Sam's age all seemed taken with her. Especially some kid called Young..., bastard had the nerve to ogle her right in front of me, of course I had to stake my claim, so I took my life and my nuts in my hands and dropped my arm across her shoulders while glaring at the kid with the death wish.MoreLess
