Vanessa？s。　？I？m　an　ass…hole；？　she　declared；　one　lone　tear　spilling　over　her　cheek。　？I　can？t　believe

I　ever　doubted　him。？　Vanessa　brushed　the　tear　away　with　her　fingers；　and　Ruby　held　her　glass　in

the　air；　her　drunken　brown　eyes　shining　in　the　dim　light。　？A　toast？？　？To　your　wedding！？　Vanessa

yelled；　clinking　glasses　with　her　sister　and　then　downing　the　contents　of　the　glass。

Twenty　minutes　and　another　shot　later；　the　room　was　spinning。　The　Coyote　Ugly　girls　were　up　on

the　bar　line　dancing；　screaming　insults　into　a　megaphone；　and　Vanessa　found　herself　unable　to　tear

her　eyes　away　as　the　girls　worked　the　room。　They　were　soconfident　。　One　gorgeous　brunette　in　a

tight　black　wifebeater；　rhinestone…studded　jeans；　and　a　cowboy　hat　danced　furiously　on　top　of　the

popped　grabbed　her　leg。　The　brunette　bent　down；　smiling　wickedly；　and　doused　him　with　a　pitcher

of　water　hidden　behind　the　bar。　The　crowd　erupted　in　cheers。

Ruby　grabbed　Vanessa？s　arm　and　slurred；　？You　should　be　up　there；　V。　You？re　hotter　thanany　of

those　girls！？　Then　she　pushed　her　from　behind；　shoving　her　toward　the　bar。　？Get　up　there　and

show　them　how　it？s　done！？　Vanessa　looked　down　at　her　hot　outfit；　enjoying　the　feel　of　the　blond

hair　swinging　around　her　face　as　she　moved。　She　pushed　up　to　the　front　of　the　crowd　and　extended

her　hand　toward　the　Daisy　Duke　brunette；　who　whooped　and　pulled　her　up　onto　the　bar。　Vanessa

surveyed　the　crowd；　feeling　a　sudden　surge　of　power。　She　started　swinging　her　hips；　her　platforms

kicking　shot　glasses　off　the　bar　as　she　moved　her　feet。

If　only　that　cab　drive
