《RESCUED AND RISEN》Chapter 15

"Katie are you sure about this blouse?" I asked as i turned to the mirror once again. "I just met the guy I don't want him think that I'm too desperate".
"What's wrong with the blouse Amy? Its not like you're naked. You look great" Katie said to me.
"The whole outfit just screams desperate, I mean these pants are showing every detail of my body and the blouse is sheer for Christ sake" I huffed. "I might as well right trying too hard on my forehead".
I was dressed in a white sleeveless sheer blouse with black polka dots, a tight black leather pants with plain 4 inches black pumps and a black leather jacket.
"So the outfit is a bit sexy? What's wrong with being sexy Amy? Isn't the whole point of going on the date with Matt, is to look good for him?"
"Who says I want to look good for him?" I asked raising a brow at her.
"Don't you?" Katie asked back raising her brow as well. "I thought you like him"
"I don't him enough to like him, but I do find him attractive" I said as I applied a shade of dark brown lipstick to my lips.
"Then that's all the more reason to look hot for him" Katie smirked.
"OK whatever" I said waving her off. "Do you think this color looks okay? I don't want to scare him off"
"Amy stop fretting the color looks good on you, the clothes looks good on you. You look great, now stop worrying. Matt is probably here by now" Katie dragged me from infront the mirror and pushing my purse into my hands. "You don't want to keep the guy waiting too long and miss out on your first real date"
"Oh my God Katie" I giggled nervously. "It's a date... I don't know what to expect and I'm 22years old for Christ sake"
"You just go and have fun wherever you guys go" Katie said to me.
"I don't even know if I'm wearing the right outfit, I don't know where he's taking me" I said freaking out. "Maybe this wasn't such a good idea..."
"Amy" Katie placed her hands on my shoulder and shaking me to snap out of it. "You are going on this date, Matt is a nice guy and you're going to enjoy it to okay?"
"Alright okay" I nodded with a sigh. "By the way I've been meaning to ask you... What was it that Matthew gave to you the other night at the bar"

"What?" Katie asked clueless.
"You know, the envelope he wouldn't give to you until you convinced me he's a great guy" I said to her.
"Oh, that. Its nothing, its just.... Oh that must be Matt here for you now" Katie started before rushing to the door at the sound of a knock.
Taking a huge breath I walked towards the door where Matt was now standing with Katie.
"Hey" I greeted with a smile.
"Amy... Wow, you look...awesome, you look great" Matthew said looking me up.
"Thanks, you good too" I smiled at him.
"Thanks, so you ready to go?" He asked with a smile.
"Yeah, I guess so" I nodded.
"Okay then, may I?" Matthew asked holding out a hand to me.
"Yeah OK" I smiled as I gave him my hand.
"Katie, see you later" Matthew winked at her.
"You better take care of her okay, it else I'll have to kick your ass if she complains about you" Katie threatened him. Though I know she was joking.
"Don't worry, I'll take very good care of her" Matthew chuckled. "You can ask her when we get back too".
" See you later babe, have a good time" Katie smiled at me.
"Yeah, I will" I nodded with a smile.
After that Matthew led me down the stairs from the apartment outside to where his car was. Katie and I lived on the second floor so we didn't have to climb down many steps thankfully. Once inside Matthew's Camaro we set off to wherever he was taking me. We have small conversations on our way as I tried to question him about where we were going but he wouldn't say. I even made a joke about if he was going to kidnap me and kill me and Matthew laughed telling me that's he's a lot of things but a kidnapper or killer isn't any of them.
I had no idea what Matthew had in store for us but I was extremely surprised when he took me to a bowling alley. I was a mixture of excited and nervous. I was excited because this was my first time coming to a bowling alley and nervous because of the same reason and the fact that I didn't know one thing about bowling. I was a bit skeptical though when we had to choose shoes there, I didn't like the idea of pushing my feet in a shoe that someone else's feet have been in.

Matthew and I were choosing our balls and I choose a red one with some sparkles that had him laughing at my choice.
"What's so funny? Why are you laughing at me?" I asked Matthew a bit amused.
"I just can't help it. You choose the big red ball with sparkles, that's something a kid would chose" Matthew chuckled.
"Well maybe I'm a kid at heart" I smiled. "I don't really have much experience with balls".
"No?" Matthew asked chuckling very amused it took me a second to realized how what I just said sounded.
"Oh God. You know what I mean" I said a bit embarrassed. "I meant that I don't have much practice with bowling balls"
"I know, I know" Matthew laughed. "So is this your first time bowling?"
"Yeah, the very first" I nodded.
"Well alright, take your first throw let's see how good you are at this" Matthew said to me.
"Now? I'm supposed to bowl first" I looked at the ball in my hand and back to the pins. "I don't have a clue how to do this".
" Don't worry just take your first bowl however you can and I'll help you after if you don't get it right " Matthew smiled at me.
"Okay... Here goes" I sighed as I stick my fingers in the three holes on top, take my stand to let the ball go down the lane.
The ball when part way then rolled right into the gutter.
"See I told you I'm not any good at this" I pouted as I turned to Matthew.
"Its so. Here, try one more time" Matthew said giving me another ball.
I tried again and the same thing happened. I turned to Matthew once again frowning.
"I'm not good at this at all" I said to her.
"Its okay, you'll get it. Let me help this time" Matthew said as he came with another ball.
This time as I held the ball Matthew stood right behind me with one hand on my waist angling my body how I should stand while the other rested under my hands which was supporting the ball. After giving me a few pointers on how to set my leg and do a small run before releasing the ball, Matthew help me do just that. The ball went out of my han on down and down the lane knocking over seven of the pins. I couldn't help the excited squeal that left my lips as I saw that.
"I did it!" I giggled to Matthew.
"You sure did, looks like you're a pro now" Matthew chuckled.
"All thanks to you" I smiled.
After bowling for a while longer, Matthew and I left to go grab a bite. He asked what I would like, if I'd like to go to a restaurant now or something I just suggested that I'd rather something more simple and so we went to get burgers, fries and milk shake. After a while Matthew decided that he should probably take me back home before Katie have his head. I couldn't deny that I had an excellent time out with him.
Matthew and I talked and tried getting to know each other but that was where I started freezing up. He had asked what I used to do before. I didn't know how to tell him that I was a stripper once performing in that club. When I told him I didn't want to discuss it he asked if it was because I was embarrassed and told me I had nothing to be embarrassed about. I tried playing dumb asking him what on earth he was talking about and he was able to tell me that he had a guess that I once worked at a strip club with Katie. I didn't know he knew that so I wanted to deny it but then he started telling me about himself. It turns out that the envelope he gave Katie that I was so curious about, contained whatever drugs. I was shocked to know that he sealed drugs too. I wanted to start avoiding him instantly but he had already told me that he enjoyed his time out with me and wanted us to try go out again and that he doesn't want what he told me to change anything. I wanted to say no but I had a great time with Matthew and I think I may like him so I decided 'what the hell' as long as I don't start taking drugs again, what's the big deal. Maybe continuing to hang out with Matthew could be the start of great things between us.

8 7268Shamrock Samurai
How many shotgun blasts does it take to kill a Banshee? Sean’s a martial arts enthusiast who just discovered his Luck magic. Will his new powers be enough to combat the slew of celtic monsters that cropped up to terrorize his city? He’ll unload a whole barrel of Luck on these paranormal pests, cruising in his ‘69 Fastback, slaying shades after dark. You’ll ride shotgun with Sean as he battles Banshees, clashes with Leprechauns, strives against Vampires, and defends his own against Celtic Demigods. There’s plenty of magic sword fights, shots fired, car chases, fisticuffs, and portal hopping while adventuring between the Bay Area and the mythical realm of Irish legend, Tir na nOg! ------------------------------------------------ I'm happy to offer this COMPLETE SAGA (6 arcs) here PERMAFREE (never in Kindle Unlimited). Imagine the intense action of JOHN WICK + the swords-n-guns slaying of DEVIL MAY CRY, and that had a baby with CELTIC MYTHOLOGY and some PORTAL HOPPING, add a pinch of INUYASHA's horrific monsters, a smattering of YUYU HAKUSHO angst, and that's Shamrock Samurai.*Contains portal hopping as a major element in each arc, but this story IS NOT Isekai (nothing against it personally. Want to make sure you know what you're getting into). Enjoy, and good luck ☘️! ------------------------------------------------ Readers say... “This series is kind of wild.”_David Simpson, author of the Zombie Road series. “Loved the plot twists and the action.” “I found the concept of magic/luck to be original and refreshing... PLENTY of action.” “Cool blend of geek culture and Gaelic mythology in a modern paranormal setting.” “Hang on till the end. There’s a wild twist I didn’t see coming.”
