MF’er says: I’ll admit, I don’t read a lot of one-shots. So when I realized it was my week to pick one, I may have freaked out a little. Nothing I was finding quite fit what I really wanted to rec until I found this one and I loved it, seriously just loved it.
Bella finds herself working in a job that she is really not all that thrilled with, dealing with crabby customers and hairy eyeballs (LOL). The highlight of her day: the chance to see and maybe talk (she even takes the time to count his words) to the bartender where she works, Forks Bark and Grill.
When Bella describes him as ‘deliciously disheveled, tall but slightly awkward and adorably unaware of his attractiveness‘ of course I go all *schwing* and I was hooked right there.
After a late night and a truck that won’t start, can you guess who’s there to save her when she’s left thinking someone might jump out of the woods and get her? Shyward. *swoon* He jumps what must be WAY out of his comfort zone to offer her a ride home… and let me take a minute to point out that he happens to drive one of the only Chevy’s I’ll ever admit that I love, a 1960-something Malibu. If you’re not a car girl, this might not mean much to you… but I am and phew that just made him even fucking hotter.
Anyhow, enough about the car, it’s what happens once they get IN the car that matters… because that’s when these two finally start talking… Chucks vs. Adidas, Pearl Jam, playing the guitar, their odd friendship that has remained pretty quiet for the past six months… Then they get to her apartment and Bella has a choice to make:
‘There he sat in the driver’s seat, looking all shy and worried that he’d scared me off with his declarations of like, and his get-me-where-it-hurts musical taste. He was adorably reserved, and I imagined he would need a little coaxing to make a move. I just had to worry about whether or not I’d freak him out if I was too forward.
I assessed his posture and weighed the pros and cons of making the first move. On the one hand, he could respond favorably, and I might finally get to see if nerdy and dirty was at all accurate. When I considered the flipside, there was a serious chance that he might freak, and shove me from the car before tearing off into the night like a scared puppy. I doubted the latter, but you could never tell. I wanted to know, and there was only one way to find out.
I couldn’t resist any longer. Things felt right, and I was high on geeklust.’
The car gets a lot hotter after that… trust me. And they’re not even in her apartment yet! But once they are… guess what makes an appearance? The Stoli shirt… and a fuckhot tattoo that just made me even swoonier on him. I’m definitely feeling the geeklust…
He clutched me tightly in his arms, and gently flicked my earlobe with the tip of his tongue before whispering into my ear.
“You want to know how I know? Let’s put it this way. I possess above average intelligence, I’m a very quick learner, and Google is my best friend. I think I’ll be able to find my way around just fine…don’t you worry. I may even know a shortcut or two. Does that answer your question?”
I would really love to know what Google taught him, so I’m pleading with you snozzberryfaery… Please tell me you’re planning a continuation to this. 
Now go read it, and leave her some love and tell her what you thought because she definitely deserves it.
