Stacy smiled as she looked up, watching her friend pause and blink as her eyes adjusted to the sudden change in light. As usual, Jessie was late, ten minutes Stacy saw as she glanced down at her phone. Not bad, she thought with amusement, it was usually more. Jessie lifted her chin when she spied Stacy’s raised hand from where she sat in a booth near the back. Waving off the hostess, Jessie hurried to join her, totally oblivious of the customer leaving his booth farther up the aisle. Stacy watched helplessly as Jess plowed into the poor unsuspecting man, knocking him backward as her purse and packages sailed through the air. Stacy couldn’t help laughing as the irritated man, who was grumbling over ‘such clumsiness’ one moment, turned into a besotted fool the next as his eyes fell on the gorgeous redhead before him. She apologized profusely as she gushed over him, asking if he was injured and bending to retrieve his check from the floor. Stacy giggled as she watched the man’s eyes widen as Jessie unwittingly gave him an eyeful of her deep cleavage in the gaping v-neck of her sweater.
