  Nick still unconvinced spending, was intrigued by Mike's attitude. He had never defended Lori any of their attacks in the time he had worked for them and knew that neither were easy to carry when it was business.

  'A few dollars will not make a difference, but if you start adding unnecessary expenses if the will said Nick, while arranging his tie.

  Mike and Peter were going to continue to insist on their views, but Nick raised his hands and continued:

  I know it was necessary and that is a long term investment. Peter, at no time have put into question the work of Lori has been magnificent. Well, we cleared everything, let's move on to something else.

  Mike and Peter, understood the point of view of Nick, who was very conscientious to manage the money, Mike did not bother him, for that partner had done.

  He entered an employee with a tray where lay three cups of coffee. Each took hers, she blushed at the wink of Peter, as he threw sugar to drink. As Mike pulled the girl gave a smile.

  What is it Peter? Do not tell me you turn your model has a diet.

  No, not that, that girl is beautiful answered the hint.

  -Les Have two news Nick pointed while leaving the cup on the table.

  Mike said he speaks.

  Julia and I are getting married.

  -Congratulations! Peter blurted enthusiastically.

  -At last! Mike stood up and spread his arms heavenward Thank God! Julia will be my heroine from now on. He does not know what to expect and what I had to endure.

  He went to Nick, hugged him and then said:

  That is news what what is the other?

  Julia is pregnant.

  Both opened their eyes and fell silent.

  -What? Say something.

  -Congratulations! Mike said and turned and hugged him. Peter did the same.

  'I'm glad Peter smiled. You did the complete work in a month. That is to act quickly.

  Nah, if I was married me tomorrow, but Julia's mom wants to organize everything. We had to postpone the wedding one month Nick blurted frowning and offended, remembering the brief encounters with her mother that left him cold sweat.

  'This deserves a toast.

  He went to a cupboard in a wooden cabinet and took out a bottle of whiskey and three glasses bar, his friends looked surprised, Mike poured two shots of liquor and one of water. In the face of Peter the relief was revealed. They toasted the future wedding.

  I'll take care of the bachelor party, we will do in Las Vegas suggested Peter, excited by the idea and realizing that life would change for the three henceforth, no more sprees friends, and he would only be Mike. It would be just him, Mike had monkhood. He did not drink and their rolls with women was very secretive.

  -The Vegas no, Peter, Julia not want to leave alone.

  -I imagined that.

  My friend, you have to travel for a while, because after the wedding I'll take three weeks to Julia Tahiti.

  With that you're at the opening of the hotel is no problem 'said Mike.

  -I will be.

  Mike was glad that Nick could recover Julia. He never imagined love with a woman, but I knew that family was important. When you decide to settle down, you would cool head, he thought that a marriage based on respect, loyalty and camaraderie would be enough, there was that involve arrows and hearts that all they brought was disappointment. The children are raised well in a stable environment. The marriage of his parents and loneliness of his childhood, he had been forced to see things a little differently than your friends. He wanted for his life, a sweet-natured woman who adored children and wanted to raise them herself; it was an excellent housewife, cakes to bake, loving, indulgent. The physical was not that important but the sexual chemistry it was. Neither she planned to spend half life with a woman he could not sleep whenever he wanted. At that time he came to mind a body of generous curves and beautiful blue eyes. "In your dreams," Mike chided.

  Jack Donovan picked up Lori at home. It was ten o'clock on a Saturday mid-September. The day was sunny. Lori Donovan invited to breakfast at his favorite bakery Tartine left in the district's mission. There was a line when they arrived. After twenty minutes they managed a table. They ordered crooissants and almond latte.

  Lori made Jack a day, on reconciliation of Julia and Nick and pregnancy that had made them so happy.

  Then the marriage will be shortly.

  Sure, Nick married right away, but Julia's mother has not put things easy.

  Well, they will have to hurry but want to be damaged line wedding dress or the baby is born in the altar.

  Lori, she bursts out laughing.

  You're an exaggeration. In this walk, this afternoon I have an appointment with her in the house of wedding dresses to choose the bridesmaid dress.

  She took a bite of bread.

  Mmmmm. He's released and wiped with a napkin. This is heaven I commit mortal sin if I ask another?

  -Pidamos Two.

  Jack motioned to the waiter and ordered two croissants.

  Mom says I have to diet.

  Adele and comments, at this stage of the game, do not know why has not stopped his feet.

  I will, I assure you.

  You look very well, besides, you'll never be skinny catwalk. You're a beautiful woman voluptuous and not see these curves it is because he is blind. For a body like yours was the Trojan War.

  Oh Jack, I wish you were not gay, I would be very in love with you.

  Hah! He patted the table, the waiter came with the second order of bread. I doubt, if not gay you would have run out a long time. We could be friends with me because you do not feel threatened. In addition, I have demons to fight, dear, and these demons are those that are attractive to women like you.

  'Why do you say that?

  'In all your relationships, you look for rescue, you are a rescuer woman and that's not bad, dear, the problem is when you leave the skin in the rescue.

  A few days ago you said you had a low opinion of men.

  And the still have, but you do not mind, you throw yourself head to see if finally the frog becomes prince by the grace of your love.

  'I took off your appetite. That poor opinion you have of me.

  No big deal 'I grabbed her hand. You're a great woman, intelligent, beautiful and with an immense capacity to love, but sometimes your taste in colors leaves much to be desired.

  Lori burst out laughing.

  -That's a lie. I like the bright colors, we can not all be as sober as you, who dress like gravedigger.

  The turn to the laughter was for Jack. It was true, in the locker room man dark colors prevailed.

  The black is elegant and remember I am designer, back to our topic, sometimes you let the bastards of you fall in love you suck every last drop. It's okay to help your neighbor to get the damn cat when it recasts, you pay the month breakfast in the cafeteria of the neighborhood limosnero that round your building, that's fine. What is wrong is that you want to fix your life partner. Trust me men do not need and is not that what they want in a woman.

  You should have your own self-help program.

  -I know. We go for a walk. What time is the meeting with Julia?

  -At three.

  -Do you want me to accompany you?

  Nor in dreams, dear, I do not want to make fun.

  'You you lose.

  'Who are the sponsors?

  Peter and Mike.

  Why, then you will be companion of the dark prince.

  Lori gave him a punch in the arm.

  They walked down the street eighteen east. Both were comfortable, Lori wore a faded jean, manoletinas dark coffee, a thin sweater and a brown jacket. The hair looked natural curls and wore little makeup, men turned to stare at her. Lori had an innate elegance and shone sportswear or the best costume designer.

  The geographical situation of the neighborhood made it warmer and sunnier than the rest of the city, and there did not reach the blissful fog. On Valencia Street they visited a secondhand bookshop and antiquarian
, where Jack found a camera in the twenties. Happy with the purchase, walked down the street twenty-four, which originated the mural art of the seventies and ended the tour at Mission Avenue, where a Latin environment, surprised. salsa was heard by a speaker located at the corner of a small square, a couple gave a demonstration of salsa. Lori Jack took his arm and did a little dance that earned more applause. It was a bohemian scene, which allowed discover the charm of this wonderful city, which was in the mix of cultures, making the city dwellers favorite place. In the afternoon before meeting Julia, they decided to have lunch in a sushi restaurant located in Union Square and was the favorite Lori.

  Mike decided to spend the day in San Francisco, at night would fly to Los Angeles at its meeting on weekends and on Sunday he would dedicate his nieces. He had meeting with the architect and furniture dealer hotel all morning. He left around noon and after a while wandering the shops of Union Square, decided sushi lunch in the restaurant had recommended Peter.

  Lori and Jack entered the restaurant and sat at the bar. They continued their conversation while watching the chefs prepare each dish. A smiling waiter served them water, they had done a good walk. The transparent liquid bubbling reminded Lori thirsty he was.

  Mike was sitting at a table in the back, he reads messages from your iPad when a laugh known, made to lift his eyes. It was her. He sighed, apparently the stooge who accompanied her had good repertoire of jokes because Lori would not stop laughing, would it be that good in bed? Mike found irresistible was suspended at the gesture of her collected hair and throw it aside as another smile surfaced, he could not help but take a picture without her noticing. You could look at her whenever he wanted. I wanted to record for him the moment he saw her, so beautiful, sensual and smiling; around him it grew brighter with that simple gesture. I did not know what was wrong, what was it that made her special ?, it would be because he knew since childhood and was also banned for him. He had tried to stay away, not wanting to try again. Was discovered thinking of her at any time and that working together had become a torture, only he imagined his lips and all he could do with them and the texture of your skin. He was loony bin.

  Did not perceive a threat in the man who accompanied her, no. He did not look like he was sure he looked as hungry beast, but jealousy he contracted the bowels. He decided to act. They had not yet served them, invite them to your table, needed to be sure the relationship was between that pair.

  Jack and Lori were surprised by the invitation waiter brought them to sit at the table ...

  Oh my God, it's your dark prince.

  Lori Mike turned quickly and made a toast with a glass of water. I could not refuse, they worked together, also Peter had called in the morning to tell what happened yesterday in the office of the firm.

  I We're going to accept the invitation, I guess. Jack stood up. This looks interesting lunch.

  -Yeah come on.

  What are you thinking, Jack Donovan? He asked worriedly. If you make a prank or something that puts me at evidence you again not to speak.

  'In evidence? I knew it, the bastard you like. Lori ante gesture he continued: Do not play with me now prissy. I'll do a little foul play, to see how it reacts, nothing more.

  Lori knew he would regret it. Mike did not take his eyes off her as they reached the table. The man was handsome, with dark jeans, a shirt with red and blue squares and unblazer sand color.

  He greeted her kiss on the cheek and shook hands with Jack. He invited them to sit down.

  The place was packed, was elegant and one of the busiest in the Bay Area, with a contemporary look and minimalist decor, the menu was one of the most complete in terms of Japanese cuisine was concerned. Waiters came and went with dishes and orders. As Lori and Jack had made his request, Mike added a few lines of maki and sashimi and other traditional sushi. They talked about the weather, the opening of the hotel and Mike's nieces. Lori took off his jacket, short sleeve sweater was. Jack put his arm and began stroking the tip of it up and down.

  Mike could not look away from that gesture. The man looked at him derisively, wanted to break his face to that cretin by fingering her as he was doing but had no right.

  Yet.

  In addition, they would not show these two was upset.

  How's your business? He asked Mike, tried unsuccessfully to concentrate on something else and let go to Lori.

  Jack did not bite.

  Very well, we will draw a new Art-Deco line in September with a special wood brought from New Zealand, I know you will succeed Jack realized that Mike was furious with him and that cheered him; however, he hid it well, Lori did not notice anything, it was a duel between them.

  Mike was worth five if the famous wood was brought from Africa, Indochina or Mars, Jack just needed to release her. The arrival of the food, forced him to divert the gesture. The smells and the sight filled with the scents and colors of the different dishes. The waiter served them.

  She looks delicious Lori started eating heartily. He savored with taste and closed his eyes for a moment as she allowed that the profusion of flavors delight.

  Mike softened his expression, he liked what he saw. Do not women were only asked at a dinner salad, and weighing fifty kilos with kilometric statures. He liked to eat with taste and not restricted by having a man next.

  I'll change a portion, one of said Lori Jack yours.

  Sure honey, come, let me feed Jack deftly took food with chopsticks and approached the mouth of Lori, it received the morsel and with a smile of satisfaction he thanked Jack.

  Mike nearly jumped from his chair, this was an intimate gesture, couple, to take it lightly and asked again if between these two there was something. Lori tasted equally like the rest of the meal. It was a gesture so sensual Mike throat went dry. He looked at Jack with undisguised hatred. He wanted to be him who will give everything I needed and not just food. He entered an urgency to be him who put a satisfied gesture in his face, for his prowess in bed, on the table or wherever I wanted. He needed to look at him adoringly as in youth.

  "Wow I've earned an enemy for life," Jack smiled satisfied. So Mike has feelings for Lori. Well, he had already put the cards on the table, they had to do something about it.

  Before the arrival of the dessert menu, Lori noticed that Mike was upset about something. He asked what was wrong, Mike just shook his head.

  Jack looked at him with that mocking laughter that always wore and she was sure that Mike gesture clear wanted to disappear. He did not understand why.

  I think I'll pass, 'said Jack dessert. Dear sorry to leave you, I forgot a compromise.

  'I have an appointment with Julia in a few minutes, I'll go with you.

  Mike interrupted.

  -go quiet, Donovan, I take Lori wherever you have to go.

  'I really is not necessary, are a couple of blocks.

  Never mind, I'll walk, let Jack go, eat dessert and leave you with Julia.

  Upon arrival of the desserts. Lori concentrated on the plate. It was a sweet made of rice paste, soft and creamy with a hint of seaweed and fruit acids.

  Mike leaned over the back of the chair and lifted the curve of the lips, he watched Lori taste the delicacy.

  You're going to get weighs at least two kilos more, 'she said to her scrutiny.

  -No way! If you are looking for blame, blame Jack, and you seemed happy alimentándote not rejected them or a bite.

  'I could not resist me' I gave a smile.

  -How long have you been with him?

  Lori had choked on the sip of water, but had left the glass on the table three seconds before.

  'I have nothing with Jack said suddenly, he took a deep breath and kept talking. He's my best friend, my confidant and I want amounts.

  Mike raised his eyebrow and said nothing.

  He was angry and jealous for the claim Lori and not sleep with the guy, it was an important person for her.

  -In A while I go back to Los Angeles, and then go to Las Vegas, with the preparations fo
r the marriage of Nick I'll come more often.

  You're one of the godfathers, right?

  Nor modes, girl, you have to tolerate me at your side during the ceremony.

  Lori gave Mike a clean look that made him laugh, before she spoke again:

  I 'I've resigned.

  You better -more Mike wanted to ask if someone would go to the wedding, but considered an impertinent question did not speak anymore.

  They asked for the bill and left the restaurant. The sky was gray, the temperature had dropped.

  But what the hell ... 'said Mike. While Lori took her arm and walked with her down the avenue. You could call the driver who had appointed, but the journey would end too soon and was not ready to let her go.

  -What's up? Lori asked.

  I do not know how you do to live in this fucking weather. It is maddening. Sun, rain, sun again and then fog and rain.

  Do not be so grumpy. They are called microclimates and people are used to it.

  rain triggered. Mike and Lori raged go. At that rate, they would be washed before the first crossroads. Mike dragged before the first portal he could envision.

  Are you used to this?

  Yes, although sometimes Lori wanted to live in a warmer place with beach breeze and sun. You can let go of Cro-Magnon man.

  Mike's face was defused and smiled.

  Mike looked at that very narrow field her breasts touched his shirt, he noticed round and firm, wanted to touch them, taste them. He examined his face wet, red, seductive, velvety lips. He was dying to try it. Her skin was perfect, delicate, was sure rubbing his beard would leave a red tint to her skin. Appropriating imagined his mouth and his skin into between her legs, he was sure it would be as soft and tasty. I got hard and painfully slow. There so close, her scent was sweet and delicious strawberries and was sure it would be more intense elsewhere.

  Should not, was in the manual relations best friends and other number of reasons why they should not touch it, but at that time it mattered little, I'd go to hell and would enjoy every fucking minute. Her eyes widened and darkened, he saw his hands up and when her nails painted red came to his chest, and nothing else mattered. Its smell went to his head. He circled her waist with his hands.
