Running To You Read Free

so quickly from Dr. Brooks, but his demeanor was so different than most physicians. It was as if he had his mind made up for a different reason, not related to the products or service. There was more to this than I could put my finger on, but in time, I was going to get the bottom of it. I refused to go down without even a product evaluation by Dr. Brooks. Many sales are won after demonstration, so I will be making good on my promise to see him again, and soon, I hoped.
    As I headed home, I reminisced about tall, dark and handsome Dr. Brooks, so beautiful and yet so dark. He had to be at least 6’5“. His shoulders seemed to stretch out for miles. I didn’t see a wedding band or a tan line to indicate one either. However, with physicians washing their hands so much, many choose not to wear a ring most of the time.
    When I entered the apartment, I noticed that Cooper had the bar covered in paperwork for the Texas Real Estate exam. Upon further exploration, there was even an application for FBI fingerprinting. It was great to see him so involved in moving forward with this process. I secretly knew that if he was going this far with the process that he was planning on staying with me in Texas for a while. Pouring a glass of wine, I heard Cooper come home from a run. “I may have to change my exercise routine; the heat is horrible this time of day. Geez, it is freakin’ hot here! However, I did happen to see a quaint little place called Sambuca’s that features live music every night with various artists. I would like to try it out for drinks later tonight. They are featuring their sexy-sax night for musical entertainment. You game?”
    “Absolutely, sounds like fun. After the day I have had, I would love to unwind listening to...what did you call it, a sexy-sax night ?” giving him a wink and a big smile. Besides, we deserved a fun night out.
    Pulling out the ingredients to make a salad, I decided I had enough of these Manolo heels, so I chunked them off just as Cooper walked into my path. Dodging shoes, Cooper threw up his hands in retreat. “Hey, what gives? Whatever it is, I didn’t do it, I swear ,” as he continues to chuckle and duck. I didn’t realize that I was so vigorous with my shoe-tossing exercise. However, I was apparent that I was beginning to fume again about Dr. Brooks’ attitude today.
    “Oops, sorry Coop. I didn’t realize I was using you for target practice.” Giggling back at him, “but you have to admit, I was dead on with my aim!” Laughing at him, I reached for my wine. Coop didn’t miss a beat, “Hey, spill on your meeting with the mysterious Doc?”
     
    “Well, I did get past Ms. Millie Watson, the cranky gatekeeper at his front desk. I had a 2 second conversation with Dr. Brooks, but you were wrong, he did say no to me today. However, I will prevail in due time. And just so you know, I did give him the Alexandra Morrison wink when I left, putting him on notice that I would see him again soon!”
    Changing the subject from Dr. Cranky, “hey, Mr. Stylist, what do ya say we go to my closet and pick out what I can wear tonight that’s not brown!” sharing a laugh with my built-in fashion guru. Eagerly following Coop, we headed off to my closet for a fashion lesson.
    I finished the chicken Caesar salad and refreshed our wine as Cooper cleared off his paperwork so we could eat at the bar. “Our bar is covered with all of the real estate info; Coop. Looks like you are diving head first into becoming a real Texan!” Coop just glared at me, he has told me before that he will always be a Bears fan, none of this Dallas Cowboys business. So he knew what I meant by my real Texan comment. Thank goodness he was barefoot, or I might have a shoe war on my hands.
    Cooper is just the cutest guy and always so playful, turning almost any situation into a comedic act. His dark hair is down to his neck with longer layers, very wavy and always has that messed up, just had sex look. He shaves almost
