You’re welcome for that he said, and she giggled. Girly and flirtatious. He’d already started, so why couldn’t she? Maddy followed him into the home. “Town special,” she explained and easily relinquished the bottle to him. Fingers brushed. She shook the tin of cigarillos that she was still holding. “The tobacco's all gone, but the distillery is still here.”
She tossed her hair over her shoulder, listening with an easy smile as he revealed some of his history to her.
Julianna followed the pair. She wasn’t smiling. Green eyes made a perfect semicircle at their obvious and disgusting display of courting.
The blonde gasped in delight. “Don’t tell me you’re a Hart!” She sounded wildly too excited by the prospect. Julianna certainly didn’t think it was anything to get in a titter over. “Guess the news hasn’t reached town, yet, or you’d have more guests than lil’ ole me.” She leaned against the kitchen counter and picked up the rum he’d left while he rinsed out some glasses. She peeled back the label and unscrewed the cap. She listened as he detailed a brief history; education, how he’d come into the money that bought him the house. Color her very interested.
“Nothing wrong with that,” she encouraged his getting in touch with his roots. Maddy wouldn’t mind getting in touch with him, if you caught her meaning. “I don’t know how deep you’ve dug, but I’m a Sorensen.” She smiled proudly. “It’s not like bein’ a Hart or a Haven,” she gestured around the kitchen with her free hand, before accepting the glass from him. “But my family ran all the speakeasies that the Harts were runnin’ to. Now, we just own the bar.”
She poured herself a healthy serving of rum and pursed her lips. She looked him up and down, taking the opportunity to access him as he stood before her, all but asking for her to ogle him. Maddy made him wait for her answer as she took a generous drink.
“I gotta say, Owen, I’m likin’ what I’m seein’.”
Julianna was not.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
