Surviving Us
“I ask before taking a bite of the best fish taco I’ve ever tasted. They’re also the only fish tacos I’ve ever tasted, so my assessment may be a little skewed, but Davis says he’s had them from all over, and these are definitely the best.
“Look at your fingers,” he says, grabbing my free hand and flipping it palm up. “See how the tips are shriveled up like a prune. You’ve never heard that before?” He stares at me with bewilderment.
“Nope.” I toss the last piece in my mouth with a satisfied grin,... licking the sticky juices that had leaked out from my fingers. I watch his gaze drop from my eyes to my mouth, so I purposely swirl my tongue around the tips a second or two longer than needed, then remove them with a loud pop.
Davis inhales a deep breath and shakes his head with a knowing smile as he relaxes back in his chair. “Gonna get yourself in trouble, Trouble.”
That’s what I’m hoping for.
Davis and I spent an hour or so out in the water, which was mainly me jumping around and squealing about the colorful fish I could see swimming around our legs and him laughing at my ridiculous behavior.MoreLess
