Killer Jeans
A Sydlynn Hayle Story
The mirror showed me what I'd hoped I'd see. After sixteen tries, struggling with unrelenting denim and zippers and too-tight pockets cut oddly, I'd finally found them.
The perfect pair of jeans.
I spun sideways in the dressing room, wriggling my butt a bit to try out the fit. After all, they might feel right, but what if, from some angle, they didn't do me justice? My social life depended on them being exactly just so.
Well, lack thereof in the actual social department. But, the right jeans might put me over the top. At least, that's what I told myself as their dark denim deliciousness wiggled back.
