“If one of those cowboys from the Humes’s ranch strokes my butt one more time, I’m going to toss a drink over somebody’s head,” Janis Little exclaimed to fellow Watering Hole waitress, Annie Holbrook, as they both reached the polished bar that stretched almost wall-to-wall along the side of the popular nightspot.
Annie grinned at her. “I double-dog dare you,” she said, her dark eyes snapping with mischief. “Stroking butts is the only way those men can convince themselves they have any kind of a romantic relationship with a woman. I triple-dog dare you.”
Janis laughed as the bartender, Tanner Woodson, approached them. “Ladies, talk to me,” he said.
“Three draft beers,” Annie said.
Janis gave him the orders for her tables and he stepped away to prepare the drinks.
