Now More Than Ever

I guess she wants to hear me beg for it.
"Lexi, what do you say?"
"Mmm, I need some time to think."
"If you take any longer, then your head is going to explode."
"You know what else is going to explode?" she asks me as she nips on her bottom lip.

Come, Lexi, get up.”I throw my hands in the air and try to politely wave her off to leave my room, yet she does not listen, “Come on, Lexi, we are not going to get another chance like this.”I grunt at her as I grab the paper from her hand; she has circled an advertisement in thick red pen under classifieds. “Dancers Wanted.”Well, it does not say what type, but it is at the most popular Club in New York City.
