Chapter 173
Kat flicked a cherry at him, using her spoon as a catapult. “No texting,” she said. “You will be married soon enough. You pay attention to us now.” She was lining up cherry stems on the side of the bowl.
Scooter rolled his eyes, and when Kat wasn’t looking directly at him, he leaned over and wiped a fingerful of whip-cream down the side of her face. Which was hilarious, especially when Jason leaned over to lick it off and she looked vaguely disgusted. Elaine practically crawled under the table, laughing at them.
“Here,” Kat said, shoving the cluster of stems at Scooter. “There are ten here. Let us see how many you can do.”
“Christ, really?” Scooter asked, staring at her. “This is a bar trick. I’m s’posed to get free booze doin’ this.”
“And so you shall,” Kat said. “One drink for every stem you can do. You will show us this trick, yes?”
