opportunity, go for the gusto.  Whatever that meant, although he'd had an idea by the hand gesture that accompanied his sponsor's suggestion.
Even Huff, Brand and Trey had added their two cents even though it was of the congratulatory kind that acknowledged he'd snagged a date with what Huff'd said was, "the beautiful but elusive and cagey Lucille".
Mel hadn't had any idea of what they were trying to say.
He finished up his call with Dee and immediately went to contact Lulu and let her know he was running late. 
But as soon as Dee arrived he was off and racing to the address he'd been given, anticipation curling in the sides of his stomach.  He hadn't dated one-on-one in high school and never afterward, so he could be forgiven his eagerness at being alone in the company of such a beautiful, bright and smart girl.  A girl that seemed to enjoy his company as much as he did hers.
He did a breath-test before exiting his car and bounded up the stairs to her second floor apartment.
The vision that met him as she opened the door found his heart kicking up a notch in spite of his fast stair climb.  She was wearing another dress although this one was green with a thin shiny belt that accentuated her tiny waist.  It was also strapless and he found himself swallowing deep at the sight.  Primarily because it exposed a bit more of what he'd often fantasized about.
She'd paired it with the black petticoats, fishnets and the shiny black shoes he'd met her in.  Had even woven a black headband into her hair which she'd left loose and that fell softly over her gleaming tanned shoulders to touch the beginning of her dress.  The pink portions were framing her face and shyly peeking through the loose curls. 
"Hey, Mel," she'd greeted softly, her rounded blue eyes turned up at him and smiling.
Dddaaammmnnn, came his body's moan from somewhere around the level of his crotch.
"Ah.  Hey, Lulu.  Don't you look pretty.  You ready to go?"  He wasn't sure but he didn't think he'd blinked since she'd opened the door.
"Just let me grab my sweater," she said turning around and going down her hall.  He had to deliberately pulled his stare away from her swaying hips and sent his gaze to roam around her place. 
It was…different.  A long low-backed purple couch dotted with pink and orange pillows was set in the middle of her living room bracketed by to bright blue chairs.  There were even streamers of what looked to be hundreds of white Christmas lights twined together and hung on the walls just below ceiling level.  It was amazing, cool and quirky, just like her.
And as she came back into the room, he couldn't help his blurt of, "great place."
"I know, right?"  She turned and looked around the space, from the kitchen that had all pink (pink!) appliances and the dining room with a green table and multi-colored chairs  before sweeping the living room.  "Trey told me about it and then helped me get a deal.  Even negotiated to get me moved in before it was supposed to be available!"
Man, Mel wasn't sure but it seemed that the Hellions held the reins in Missoula.
"Shall we hit it, my lady?" he asked and offered his arm to his very first one-on-one date.
He caught a bright flare in her blue, blue eyes before she looped her arm in his, a move that caused a swirl of butterflies in his stomach to be released.
As he opened the heavy door of the old Cutlass, Lulu turned her face to his.  "This is so perfect!  A classic, right?"
He didn't know if she was referring to their date or his ride but just nodded and tried to smile.  Which seemed to be the right thing to do as she sat first, then twisted to pull her curvy legs into the car with a hand to her skirts in order to seat herself.  He took the time walking behind the car to readjust what was already throbbing in his jeans.
She was too screaming hot for words!
As he drove they kept up a steady stream of their favorite things about their new town which kept the conversation lively.  But soon,
