The sun warmed Kelsey’s body and as she opened her eyes she noticed she was covered with a jacket.
“It’s all I have”
Kelsey looked up and saw the bartender sitting 下一个 to her.
“I think introduction is in order. Keith” he 说 sticking out his hand, but Kelsey only stared at him confused. “My imagination is too restricted to fully understand what happened last night, but I have quite some theories” he added.
Kelsey rubbed her forehead.
“Stay here, I’ll get 你 some clothes” Keith 说 and he returned to his bar. A few 分钟 later he came back with some clothes. “I left a note to say you’ll return them all washed up and ironed. I’ll get back inside. Meet me when you’re dressed” he 说 and he went back inside.
Kelsey put on the clothes and followed Keith. “Did I stay there all night?”
“No” Keith answered after a few seconds. “I don’t know where 你 went 或者 what you’ve been doing, but 你 came back when 你 were changing back”
“Why didn’t 你 bring me inside?” Kelsey asked.
“I was too shaken to think straight” Keith defended himself. “I’m sorry… I stayed with 你 though”
“Wow, thank 你 so much” Kelsey 说 sarcastic. “Look, I have to get back to my motel, if 你 don’t mind”
“We have rooms upstairs” Keith said. “I’d like 你 to take one. On me. See it as making up for my poor manners, for letting 你 sleep outside”
“No, I can’t do that” Kelsey declined.
“Why not? 你 have no place to go anyway, I’m sorry. 你 might as well stay here and keep me some company” Keith insisted.
“Yeah, because as a bartender 你 must be really lonely” Kelsey sarcastically noted.
“You have no idea” Keith replied. “So, is that a yes?”
“It’s a maybe” Kelsey said. “And now we’re so generous 你 could give me a ride home”
“I thought they kicked 你 out of the house?” Keith asked.
“They did” Kelsey nodded. “But I’m going to kick myself back in… My parents have some serious explaining to do”
