Chapter 4

When Stix stepped out of the car, Jamie’s eyes got bigger. Wow, he thought she certainly did clean up well. That dress accentuated all her curves. She had a very nice chest on her. Jamie was a “tits” man. He loved a woman with a good set of tits on her. Jamie thought he might have to think about this a little more. It wouldn’t hurt to get to know her. She still wasn’t his type, but for a moment, he certainly considered trying it out.

“Hello!” Stix said. “Is there somewhere we could talk?”

Jamie was a little stunned. He really just wanted to get his packets and leave. But since she came all the way down to the base to bring his materials to him, he said, “There is a little coffee shop about a block over. We can go there.”

All eyes were on them when they entered the coffee shop. Jamie came to the coffee shop quite often. The employees there had never seen him with a black girl before. And what a girl! She was beautiful. They made a cute couple—the tall handsome officer and the pretty petite woman. They sat at a table and ordered their coffees. Stix began by saying that all his packets were in the box but that she was interested in his topic and had reviewed one. “You know, I speak for a living, and I would like to make a few suggestions, if you don’t mind.” Jamie said he was okay with that. So Stix proceeded carefully. Stix knew that even though this was a big strong marine, his ego was probably fragile.

“I noticed that you had a few grammatical errors, so I had my staff correct them for you. I hope that was okay,” Stix said.

“Sure,” replied Jamie. Jamie was really thankful that Stix had done that for him. His superiors were very critical of everything that he did, and he was glad Stix had caught the mistakes instead of them.

“There is something else,” said Stix. “Did you know that there was a new version of the weapon’s manual? The one that you are using is outdated.” Stix pulled out the new one to show to Jamie.

“I’ve never seen this before,” he said. And then he wondered if his superior officers knew this and if they were setting him up for failure. Stix pointed out the major changes in the new version. Jamie was amazed at her knowledge of the manual. He was also horrified. What was he to do now?

Stix read Jamie’s thoughts and saw her chance to get closer to him. “Don’t worry about it,” she said. “I’ve got your back.” She pulled out the packet that she had revised to go with the new version of the manual. “I’ve redone the packet for you. I will go over it with you. If you need me, I will assist you during your presentation. I can cover the new parts of it.”

Before Jamie could even think about it, he said, “Why would you do that for me? We just met.”

Stix had always been a quick thinker. “You are putting your life on the line for our country. That’s the least I can do for you.”

With that reply, Jamie flashed a smile that lit up the room. That remark made him feel so good. He didn’t get many comments from people showing their appreciation for what he was doing.

And Stix gave him a big smile and said, “And besides, we presenters have to stick together!” That comment made Jamie laugh. Jamie really liked this girl.
