Finally, a few weeks after asking Debbie to move in with me, the day had arrived! She was finishing up getting her things together and packed. She was stressed out and smoking more heavily than usual.
"I can't believe how much shit I have!" she said as she plopped down on her bed. She had her long, red hair pulled up in a ponytail, and was wearing black short shorts and a tight, pink t-shirt. Damn she was hot! She pulled out the last cigarette from a pack she had only opened up 3 hours ago, and lit up. It was only about 10:30am and the movers were due to arrive by 11:00am. "I was hoping to be ready for them, but I may be cutting it close."
"You only have a few items left." I said as I lit up as well. "The only big thing left is taking the bed apart. Sorry I forgot my pliers and screwdriver. Hopefully the movers have the tools you need." She smirked at that and I laughed. "You're such a slut!"
"You love it!" she replied as she smiled slyly and took a deep drag. "Who knows? Maybe the movers are hot and I can have a little fun." as she exhaled.
"Like you'll have time for that!" I said. "After they pack up, they still have to bring everything over to my place, I mean... our place, and unpack everything and set up. The guy on the phone told me they were pretty pressed for time today. They want to be in and out by 2pm." and she smirked again. "Ok, ok" I said with a chuckle.
By the time 11:00am rolled around, we were all but finished packing. Except, of course, for the bed. We sat and smoked again, and we heard the truck pull up a few minutes later. A moment after that, there was a sharp knock at the door. Debbie answered it and let the 2 movers in.
"Thank you so much for doing this on such short notice!" Deb exclaimed as they were obviously eyeing her up and down. She smiled at them, took a deep drag, and blew it their way.
"Not a problem miss." said the biggest of the 2 men. He was about 40, had long brown hair pulled back in a ponytail, and was about 6'1". He was built well. His short sleeve shirt showed off his muscular, tattooed biceps.
Yeah it's fine." said the shorter one. Not much shorter though. He was about 35, with short, jet black hair and stood about 5'9". He was thinner, but he was almost as muscular as his partner.
The bigger one introduced himself and his co-worker to us. "I'm Don and this is Mike." and Mike did a 2 finger salute. Deb laughed a little and Mike got a big grin on his face. Don just rolled his eyes at him. "He's the funny one. At least he thinks so." he said with no smile. After another moment of admiring Deb, he asked "Is everything packed up and ready to go? We have another job at 2:30."
"Everything except the bed." I told him. I forgot to bring my tools over and Debbie doesn't have any. Do you have tools I can use?"
Mike answered "Yeah, I got some in the van. You can take the bed apart, while Donnie and I here load up everything else."
"Great!" I replied. "I appreciate it. Thanks!" and followed Mike out to the moving van.
As he pulled the tools out, my cell phone rang. Oh great, I thought. Work. What the hell do they want? I reluctantly answered.
"Hey yo Boss Man!" my assistant Jonathon said to me. "I had an emergency come up, and I need to split like asap!"
I groaned. "Are you absolutely sure?" I'm helping Debbie move today, and I don't have anyone else to run the store!"
"Yeah, my girl's car broke down, and she's got the baby! I need to get over there and help her! She's on the highway! Shouldn't take more than a few hours. I'll be back as soon as I can!" he replied.
I sighed and said "Ok. I'll be there in 15 minutes. Can you wait that long?"
"Yeah no problem. But please hurry. Sorry Boss man!" Jonathon replied and hung up.
I stared at my phone for a few seconds, before Mike said "Tough break man! Don't worry. We'll take care of your girl." I quickly looked up at him. His eyes went wide. "I mean, don't worry! We'll get the bed apart for ya, and get her moved out. No problem!" I smiled and thanked him.
"Let me break the news to Deb." I told him as we headed back inside.
"Hey Deb" I said to her "Jonathon just called me. His girlfriend is broken down on the highway, and he needs to go try to fix her car. I don't have anyone else to run the store, so I hafta go in for a bit."
"It can't wait?" Debbie said somewhat pissy as she was taking a deep drag off of yet another cigarette.
"She's got the baby, and he's pretty worried." I replied. "He said he'll be as quick as he can. Sorry Babe, but I gotta go."
She exhaled slowly and gave me a small smile. "Yeah, I'd be worried too, if I had a newborn and was broken down somewhere. Do what you have to do." she sighed and took another drag.
I thanked Mike and Don, and I made sure to confirm with them that the bill for moving Debbie was already taken care of.
Don answered "Yup. The boss said you're all straight."
