Spring Heeled… Jackie?

Perhaps…

*inserts current writing thingie*

Darkness settled over the scrubby foothills of snowbound mountains as Jackie settles into the high, wing-backed chair near the large windows of her favorite coffee house. She sips at her hot, chocolate-laced cappuccino and gazes down on her novel, held open on her folded legs. She leans back into the chair, her gaze falling upon the latest customer to walk through the doors, a young woman with long, dark hair pulled back into a thick ponytail. A smile crosses Jackies face as her eyes sink lower down the back of the newcomer, turning into a grin as her gaze captures the curvature of the young womans form in her tight, light coat. Naughty girl, she thinks to herself, but does not look away, her mind forming details and fleshing out the form of her latest diversion. She sneaks her eyes back down to the pages of her novel, but her mind does not read the words, instead continues to undress the woman even as she finishes her order at the counter. She sips more coffee as the woman comes and sits near her and pulls a well-worn book from within the knapsack she carried into the shop and settling down to wait for her order to be prepared. Noticing Jackies gaze upon her, she smiles in her direction. Hi! What are you reading? she asks politely. Oh, this? Jackie answers, Keeping you a Secret. She says, a slight blush creeping across her cheeks. Oh Ive not heard of that, the newcomer says, is it good? Its different, says Jackie, Ive not read anything quite like it before Neat, Ill have to look for it the newcomer says. I had to order it from Amazon, Jackie admits, its not mainstream. Mainstream the woman asks. It deals with unusual relationships. Jackie says, marking the word unusual with a bit of stress. The newcomers forehead furrows, then relaxes, ah unusual. She smiles. Being normal is so boring, she says smiling in Jackies direction. I prefer something a bit unusual. She says with a smirk.

*end transmission* Mrow.
