Diamond in the rough

          He
was handsome. Tall, short dark hair, brown eyes, nice athletic body, and young.
She could imagine him with his shirt off, like the male cologne models. Tight
abs, not much hair on his chest, jeans slung low, sexy expression. He finished
stirring the fire and smiled at Rachel. Yum,
a sort of diamond in the rough, she thought. She took a sip of her martini
and caught Toni’s eye. Toni had a smile on her face that reminded her of the
Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland.
Rachel gave her a tight-lipped smile.

            “Can’t help looking,” she whispered.

            “He smells money,” Toni said softly.

            “Really, you think that’s all he
smells?” Rachel asked.
