if it was baseball or football. She’d found it a few years ago and it had been
a spare, so she’d claimed it and she’d been wearing it ever since.
Arabella’s plan to avoid June lasted for all of thirty seconds. She’d been
sitting in her shady spot for ten minutes, entertained by a group of kids who
looked to be around ten to twelve who were tossing a football around,
having some sort of mini game. There were three girls and four boys, and
the girls were definitely kicking butt. That amused Arabella. She liked their
feisty spirits. All of a sudden, she looked up and saw June heading her way.
Not just June. No, it couldn’t just be June. Arabella’s luck was apparently
just shit as of late. Summer Johnson walked beside Arabella, her flaming
red mane impossible to miss. She was wearing an emerald-green maxi dress
that matched her eyes and made her tall, curvy frame look like a goddess.
Arabella felt a momentary twinge that wasn’t regret or panic, though she
felt bucketloads of those, but it passed quickly, as soon as her eyes swept to
June.
June was tall enough, around five seven. She didn’t have the curvy figure
that Summer or Arabella herself had. Arabella had made fun of her in high
school, saying she looked like a boy. She didn’t look like a boy. She looked
anything but. Her body might be on the slight side, petite even, but she had
gentle, tantalizing curves. Her skin was flawless everywhere, a silky cream
that made Arabella’s stomach twinge. Something deep in her chest vibrated
like a plucked bow string when she swept her gaze over June’s funky green
shoes, up to the yellow sundress she had on. Dainty straps stood out against
all that creamy skin, the sundress exposing legs that seemed to go on
forever. While the top was snug, hinting at the swell of her breasts, it
flowed from there, hiding a tiny waist and a ridiculously tight bottom.
Arabella was ashamed to say she’d checked June out thoroughly when
she’d followed her to her of
fice her first day of work.
June never had been one for makeup, and she wore hardly any at all.
