Standing on the ladder, he reached for the screwdriver. He’d have to take the faulty sign down to work on it. Neon sign tubing could be tricky.

“It’s a sin to tell a lie.” Twirl and Dip #SnipSun #snippetsunday
The jukebox turned on in the other room and she cringed when she realized what record the darn machine had chosen to play. The lead singer of the Somethin’ Smith and The Redheads belted out the lyrics to It’s a Sin to Tell a Lie.
Just make a list… Twirl and Dip #SnipSun #snippetsunday
His hands were in his pockets and his eyes said so much, longing and sorrowful and…unsure. Of her? Of being here? She swallowed the lump that had formed in her throat.
“It’s really great to see you,” he told her, and his voice sounded heavy with emotion but before she could decipher what it meant, he turned and headed back outside.

“Let’s put you to work.” She took a deep breath and squared he shoulders and walked by him and his musky scent teased her senses. She gritted her teeth as her feet hurried toward the front door just to put some distance between them.

“Don’t you need to tune a guitar or kiss a starlet or something?”
Oh hell, why did she go there? Snarky nattering wasn’t the conversation she wanted to have with him even if he deserved it. Pettiness had never been her style and she’d made peace with her decision to put Drake Tennyson behind her and move on or at least it had been the plan. However, with the past standing in her kitchen and staring her in the eye, all those feelings of hurt and betrayal bubbled to the surface as if five years had never happened. Her eyes shifted to the worktable and she reached for the flour and then rearranged the other ingredients for the chocolate chip muffins for the third time. The recipe sat to the side with her scribbles and suggestions, but how could she concentrate when Drake stood there, looking all kinds of yummy in his work clothes, and with his dreamy eyes focused on her like she was some morsel he’d like to devour.

This is a WIP. “Drake? she asked though his name sounded more like a croak from sick bullfrog. His lips curved in that all too familiar lopsided grin and she mentally cursed herself for allowing his smile to affect her in a way that rendered her speechless. “Hi, Eastyn, long time no see,” he said with a shrug. The lights flickered and he glanced at the fixture overhead. That’s all he had to say to her? Well she had plenty to say to him, only she couldn’t remember one lick of the speech she had rehearsed years ago for just …

“Do you believe she’ll even want me there even if it’s to work on her place?”
“There’s only one way to find out.” His father said and strode away not waiting to hear his reply.

He wanted to see Eastyn. It was the reason he was here, but he wanted a plan their meeting in a neutral spot, not show up at her place as the handyman. It didn’t seem like the best way to see someone you left behind and hope to apologize and be forgiven.

Drake took a cab from the airport and had the driver leave him at the corner of the street so he could walk the rest of the way to his destination.
