'Til Death Do Us Part - Part 32

Sarah and Roger took a bow as the half dozen patrons who occupied the tables in front of the stage cheered. The lanky man who had been on the stage before them let out a wolf whistle as she and Roger walked off the stage.

“Look who just came into the bar,” Sarah whispered.

Roger turned his head toward the door. Rob looked over in their direction and locked eyes with Sarah. She smiled and waved at him. As she and Roger walked toward the trio, a man shouted from somewhere in the bar, “Fun’s over, Bradys’ here.” The bar erupted into laughter. “You better watch out, he might cuff ya and frisk ya,” another man shouted.

“Hey,” Brady said. His eyes darted around the room. “I didn’t expect to find y’all in a place like this.”

“It seemed like a nice enough bar,” Sarah said. “We were just looking for a place to hang out for a bit.”

Rob made a motion for them to sit at a nearby table. “Oh,” he said, sitting down. Sarah and Roger took seats beside each other. Moments later, Shawn and Aura joined them at the table. Shawn set down a beer in front himself and another in front of Rob. Aura set down a glass of whiskey before sitting next to Roger.

“Hello there, my name’s Aura,” she said and winked. She extended a hand to Roger.

“Hi, I’m Roger,” he said. They locked eyes and a goofy grin spread across his face as he shook her hand.

“The pleasure is all mine I’m sure,” Aura said. She caressed the side of his face with her fingertips. “Hopefully, we’re not... interrupting anything here.”

Sarah felt a pang in her chest as she watched Aura and Roger interact. What was wrong with her? Since when did she care about who Roger flirted with?

Sarah cleared her throat. “Hi Aura, I’m Sarah,” she said.

“How rude of me,” Aura said and looked at Sarah. “Here I was, flirting with your boyfriend. You can’t blame me though. He is quite a feast for the eyes.”

“We’re not together,” Sarah said. “He’s all yours.”

“Oh? That’s all right. You two make such a cute couple, I’d hate to get in the way,” Aura said. She winked at Sarah and picked up her glass, then stood up and meandered away from the table, toward the pool tables.
