when noelle went out today , she didn’t expect the first place she’d want to eat to be at a local dive bar . they do have really good burgers and fries , though , so she isn’t complaining . as she takes a sip of her pina colada , she looks around at the environment ... and oh . fuck . no fucking way . after a good glance for a split second too long , she recognizes the face . east . east harvey . fuck her sideways with a butcher’s knife ... of course he’d be here , too .
as she’s about to get up from the booth , noelle can’t help but notice that he’s with someone ... or it looks like he is . the brunette sitting at the table doesn’t look much like the sister he always talked about , but who knows ? maybe she paid him a visit after tracking him down . time to find out . “ hey , east , ” she puts on a fake smile as she decides to saunter over to him , side-eyeing the girl across the table , “ remember me ? noelle ? yeah , i still have something of yours . do you happen to recall what it was you left at my house ? y’know , after the night you moaned my name so loud that your voice was hoarse the next morning ? ”
boy , is this gonna be good . the girl across from them looks from her to him and then back to her , utterly confused . noelle gives her a small smile and wave , then turns back to her ex . “ you remember , right , babe ? that hoodie , the one with your favorite sports team on it ? it’s in the trunk of my car , if you want it back . ” save the nasty surprise for when he decides to retrieve it ... don’t tell him you used it to help a mother cat birth seven kittens and didn’t bother to wash it ...
