Chapter 1

As a subtle vibrating started against my leg, I looked up at my captain, wondering what he would do to me if I pulled out my phone and checked my incoming message. No doubt he would be seriously pissed if I got caught not listening to his briefing about the raid tomorrow. Unable to resist peeking to see if it was from Sarah, or Sasha, or whatever the girl’s name was I was supposed to be taking out tonight, I pulled my phone out and took a sneaky look beneath the desk. I already knew that even if I got caught I wouldn’t be taken off point for the operation tomorrow. I was the best sharp shooter he had, so that afforded me a little leniency. But instead of seeing a message from my date for the night, there were two picture messages from my best friend, Bryson Taylor. As I opened the first one, I was greeted by a cute little scrunched-up and messy-looking baby. My eyes widened as my breath caught in my throat. A moronic grin slipped onto my face as I scrolled to the next mess...

“He’s here.” Anna beamed proudly, motioning towards the side of the bed at the plastic crib. Okay, first it’s time to tease the new dad! I gripped Bryson’s shoulder tightly and pulled the cigar from my pocket, holding it out to him. He laughed nervously, subconsciously scrunching his nose up in distaste. “A cigar?” “Tradition.” I nodded, trying to look serious; I couldn’t wait to get him to smoke it. He’d probably puke his guts up. “Dude, I hate cigars and so do you.” He looked a little horrified, and I knew just by his face that it was worth the seven bucks I spent on it. “Taylor, it’s in the movies; the dad and his best friend have to smoke a cigar to welcome the baby into the world. I also have to take you out to get you drunk to wet the baby’s head.” I grinned and turned to walk around the bed to see the baby. “I guess if it’s in the movies then it must be true,” Bryson mumbled sarcastically. Anna smiled. “I’ve seen that movie too. Jace’s right, it

As soon as we were outside of the door, I spotted Rick still sitting exactly where I'd left him earlier. “Hey man, still here?” I asked, frowning. “No, I left an hour ago.” “Hilarious. Go call the night guard and ask what the hold-up is,” I suggested. “You definitely sure you can’t come out Saturday night for Seth’s birthday?” He shook his head in answer. “Definitely. I have family over. Next time though, for sure.” I nodded absentmindedly as I glanced up at Ashley. She was frowning down into her purse. “I’ll catch you later, Rick.” I walked over to Ashley, glancing over her shoulder and seeing that she had just over four dollars in her purse. “Ready?”I smiled. As she jumped and looked up at me, her frown left her face and a teasing smile graced her lips. “Actually, I can’t. I’ve just remembered that I have to go and wash my hair. Sorry.” Brush off number four, why the hell do I like this? “Baby, I’m going to have sex with you tonight, so you might as well

Thankfully, the waiter came over and took our order, so I got a few minutes reprieve. Surprisingly, she didn’t order anything too expensive like I thought she would. When the waiter walked off, I smiled and decided to change the subject. “Cameron’s so cute, isn’t he?” She smiled. “Nice diversion. And yeah, he was incredibly cute, but then again with parents like Anna and Bryson, the kid’s going to be good-looking.” “Yeah, I guess he’s got good genes,” I admitted. “Our kid would be hot too.” As soon as I said it, I wished I hadn’t. Another comment about us sleeping together. Clearly I couldn’t take a hint or a rejection. “You just can’t help yourself, can you?” she commented, rolling her eyes. “Not around you by the looks of it. So, what three jobs are you working now then?” I questioned, trying to change the subject. “I work in a restaurant as a waitress at lunchtimes. I have a cleaning job, and I’m a maid in a hotel.” She shrugged turning her nose up.

Chapter 5
We chatted easily the whole trip. She told me about the school she was going to be working at. How she had graduated college, but wasn’t able to find a teaching job in her home town, so she had to come to LA instead. Apparently, she didn’t like LA very much and was going to miss her mom who she would be leaving in Barstow. She was, however, excited to have her dream job and be closer to Anna and her younger sister. We talked a little about my job and where I lived. I continued to flirt, and she continued to reject me. Ashley was incredibly funny and smart, and I couldn't help but admire her putdowns. During the whole two-hour trip, there wasn’t a single awkward silence. Usually I ran out of things to say to a girl after a little while – which wouldn’t be a problem because I’d just shove my tongue down her throat – but Ashley just seemed to capture my attention. I also noticed little things about her that made me smile, like how she used her hands when she spoke of somethin

Chapter 6
Two hours later I was lying flat on my stomach, looking through the eyepiece of my rifle. In the building opposite, I could see five guys fussing around a briefcase. One of them was the undercover cop. Apparently, there were another four guys spread around the building, keeping watch while the deal went down. I didn't need to worry about those four though, the ground team would take them out before they moved in. My comms unit crackled to life. “We’re moving in. Radio silence.” This meant that we could hear what was going on with them, but they couldn’t hear us unless we buzzed to get their attention. That way we didn’t give away their positions. I glanced at Russell, who was about twenty feet away, mirroring my position and aiming at the building too. “I’ll cover the two on the right,” I said, signalling with my hand. “Yeah okay, I’ll go left then.” He nodded, looking back into his eyepiece. My comms unit crackled again. “I’m going in,” Kurt, one of my more reckless team membe

Chapter 7
The week passed quickly. Kurt was placed on office duties for two weeks as punishment for his little stunt that he pulled, so that made me feel slightly better. There wasn’t really much they could do about him though; apparently, a warning had been put on his file this time and next time he messed up he’d be transferred to a team that was not as field based as us. Personally, I was now willing him to screw up again just so he’d be out of my hair. Today was Saturday, Seth’s birthday, so we were all heading out to celebrate. I was actually looking forward to it because I’d been working hard all week, so this was going to be the first chance I’d had to let off some steam. And Bryson was coming out, much to my surprise. He’d initially cancelled after Cameron was born, but later called back to say that Anna was making him go and had made secret arrangements for another guard to come and take over her guard duty for the night. He didn’t sound best pleased about it. As I stood ou

Chapter 8
The girl I had used the pick-up line on was talking to me, but I wasn’t interested in her. I was too busy looking through the crowd, watching Ashley shake her little ass on the dance floor. I stared after her in shock, then with more than a hint of lust as she started to dance. I groaned and turned back to Bryson, ignoring the girl who was trying to get my attention. “What’s the deal with her? She’s not interested in me at all!” I complained. He laughed and gripped my shoulder, squeezing gently. “She’s not your type, Jace. Let it go.” He pushed me towards the bar again, shaking his head. “Why not? Come on she’s a girl, she’s my type,” I countered, crossing my arms over my chest. The girl was seriously denting my ego. “Jace, Ashley is Anna’s best friend and she’s an incredible person. She doesn’t deserve you dicking her around and using her. Let it go,” he replied. I sighed and frowned. I could understand him not wanting me to hurt Anna’s friend, of course, but

He sighed and closed his eyes in defeat. “Fine, give me a damn line,” he muttered. I smiled, thinking of a line he could use. I didn’t want to give him one that was too good; after all, I didn’t actually want her to fall for it. “Okay, how about you say; do you mind if I hang out here until it’s safe back where I farted?” I joked, knowing he wouldn’t ever say that to a girl. He looked at me in disbelief. Seth and Wayne both burst out laughing. I grinned and shook my head at his gullibility when he’d had a few drinks. “I was kidding. Okay here, say this; do you have sunburn or are you always this hot? That’s an oldie but a goodie.” I shrugged; believe it or not, that corny line had worked for me in the past. He groaned and looked back over to her nervously. “She’s going to shoot me down.” “That’s the point, I want her to shoot you down.” He rolled his eyes. “You owe me for this, Jace.” He turned and walked off, and we watched as she laughed and shook her he

Chapter 10
“Wow, now I feel a little like a hooker,” she replied. I burst out laughing at her randomness. “A hooker, really? Does that mean you'll put out if I take you home with me?” She moved closer, raising one eyebrow. “What do you think the answer to that question is?” I blinked a couple of times. I’d never had a girl behave like this with me, usually once I’d made my move they were hanging all over me, listening to me talk, or just checking me out. It was refreshing to meet a girl that could hold her own against me. I decided to go for the honest answer. “My guess is I’m going to bed with a mental image of you, some lube and a box of tissues.” She burst out laughing and shook her head as she slapped my chest playfully. “You just get cruder and cruder the more I talk to you.” I did a little bow as if it was a compliment, which caused her to laugh harder. “So anyway, change of subject; why would your parents name you Ashley if your surname was Right? I mean, tha
