You Twice

next?

“She’s a machine,” Steve, one of the other workers, commented while taking a quick water break “Where’d you find her get me one of them too?”

A flash of annoyance raced through Cooper at the comment but was quickly pushed aside. “Not worth it he responded te that.”

“Hey now, that’s not nice,” Morgan, the third man who finished up what would usually be a four man today a three man and tune

her.”

“Maybe we should think about hiring her on,” Morgan continued with a grin. “Could get twice as much work done in half the time

“She’s real nice to look at too,” Steve commented, winking at Cooper who suddenly found himself want to rip the man apart.

“I can hear you,” came Avery’s voice as she, shovel in hand, straightened and turned to face them. “Might wanna watch what you say while I’m holding a potential weapon, boys.”

“Ouch,” laughed Steve. “She’s sassy.”

Avery took a step in their direction, causing the man to raise his hands in defeat.

“Alright, alright. I’m sorry. I’ll stop.”

Cooper was still feeling some kind of way over how the two humans were discussing Avery but refused to delve into it further. They were there to work and this sort of conversation wasn’t conducive to work. That’s all it was, he told himself Nothing more They weren’t there

to discuss how good Avery looked, even when sweaty from physical labour, grass stains on her clothes.

Scowling, Cooper turned away and got back to his own work in the hopes of distracting himself from unwanted thoughts about a certai

she wolf.

The job was suppose to take them well into the evening, what with Jeremy off, but, because of Avery’s can-do attitude and incredible work ethic, they managed to finish up in time for dinner.

At that point Cooper found himself feeling annoyed with the she wolf because whenever she’d addressed him throughout the day it’d always been about work. Which was great perfect and exactly what he’d wanted. So why was he feeling so frustrated when she’d done nothing wrong? For acting exactly how he’d hoped she would?

That said, he also wasn’t keen on having her stick around any longer than necessary which meant this dinner wasn’t

“Yeah, Avery, join us for dinner,” Steve chimed in, much to Cooper’s annoyance. “Let’s treat you to some good food for Coop, of course.”

Oh hell no. Cooper was not going to get roped into this shit.

“You two are the ones inviting me,” Avery began, looking at the two humans with a smirk. “That means you’d both need to pay for not making someone pay if they don’t want me there.”

“Coop wants you there, don’t you?,” Steve grinned as he turned to face Cooper, who was scowling.

“Don’t worry about it,” Avery told them with a wave of her hand. “I’d never let any of you pay for me anyway. I eat too much to let

anyone cover my bill.”

“Coop?” Morgan prodded, giving Cooper a look that said, ‘just do the right thing already.”

Letting out a sigh, Cooper relented. “Alright. Fine. You should come for dinner with us, Avery.”

“Perfect! What kind of food do you like?” Steve was already on the move but Avery’s attention was locked on Cooper

“You sure? I’d rather not impose.”
