“You did what?” Mason questioned, “Dude, that’s so not fair, where’s the invites? Omg did you go with Ror? That’s real rude if you did…” Mason huffed, clutching his heart in feigned hurt, “But you know what, that’s what you get for leaving me out, yeah, payback by karma!” Not that Mason was having a top-of-the-notch morning himself, but Laurel didn’t need to know that she was the third customer he messed up this morning, he just wished he had a cooler reason to be sleep deprived, “Oh hey, market on me!”
“To be fair, I thought you were completely knocked out on the couch again and thought it’d be rude of me to wake you from your beauty sleep. Not that you need anymore of it,” she complimented, punctuated with a wink. “I was thinking of inviting Rory and then remembered a week ago I thought I heard her say something about having a dream where she drowned me and thought it’d be best to just... not. I love that woman--but I also love being alive.”
“That’s my problem though--I have no idea how to market it. What do I say to you? Would you like me to wax your eyebrows and add glitter to your lids?”

“Dang, soz my dude,” Mason said for what seemed to be the millionth time that morning, “Uh..fourth time’s the charm right?” They could say this never happens, but that would be a lie, the day was already off to a terrible start, did Mason really want to make it worse by lying? It was a simple order and for him to get it wrong three times was just next level messed up, “Sleep deprivation is a killer, let me tell ya, I do hope you’re having a better day than me.”
“Other than the fact that I also overslept so I’m late for our Thursday morning store meetings? My day is going spectacular,” she tightly grinned. “If only skinny dipping in the complex pool until the break of dawn didn’t have such severe consequences.” Laurel rubbed her forehead, lightly glaring at the cup of coffee that Mason, once again, botched. “I haven’t been able to book any esti appointments for tonight. Need to find someway to market business without the beauty popo hopping on my jock.”
