10 " Calm down, calm down. Deep breath,” Colleen whispered. “It's showtime. He's a nice guy, you're a nice woman.”
“Hey, Paulie,” Bryce said as he loped over to Paulie's car. “Everything okay here? Our window just broke.”
Paulie inhaled audibly, her breath hitching in her throat. “Oh! Wow. Hi. Your eyes are so...so...blue.”
Colleen winced. “Stop that.”
“Stop that,” echoed Paulie.
Bryce stopped and tilted his head.
“Paulie, relax. Just...just say hi to him.”
Another shaking breath. “Hi, Bryce!” she said loudly. “What are you doing here?”
Bryce laughed. “I live here. How about you?”
A squeaky groan came over the wire.
“I threw a pebble, I guess. I think I had a blowout,” Colleen whispered.
“I threw a pebble, I guess,” Paulie parroted. “I think I had a blow job.” She clapped her hands over her mouth. “Out, out! I didn't mean blow job. I never had a blow job. I meant something else. Out. I had a blowout.”
“Paulie, calm down,” Colleen whispered. “Jesus.”
“Jesus, calm down,” Paulie said, then wiped her forehead with her arm. “Uh...I...I have a flat tire.”
“Bummer,” Bryce said, not freaked out in the least by Paulie sounding as if she were possessed by a demon.
“Can you help me change it, Bryce?” Colleen asked.
“Can you help me change it? Bryce? Please? Please help me.”
Dear Lord. This was going to be a long afternoon. "
