“Just because I’m not panting after every pretty chick I see doesn’t mean I’m a zombie.”
“Then what does it mean?”
“Maybe it means I want more out of a relationship than the surface stuff. And don’t make any smart remarks about corporate brainwashing or anything.”
“Why do you think I’d do that?” Zephyr looked offended. “I’d say it’s about time you realized there was more to women than good looks and sex. Not that you can’t have all that and a connection on a deeper level. Look at me and Trish.”
Bryan was glad to shift the focus of the conversation away from himself. “I’m still trying to figure out what she sees in you,” he said.
“Haven’t you heard opposites attract? We balance each other out. I help her loosen up and she brings out my intellectual side.”
“I didn’t know you had an intellectual side.”
Zephyr punched Bryan’s arm, and Bryan punched him back. Just like old times.
“Seriously, what are you looking for in the perfect woman?” Zephyr asked as they unloaded from the lift again. “Maybe I can help you find her.”
Bryan started to make some remark about not needing Zephyr as a matchmaker, but stopped. The truth was, Zephyr did know almost everyone in town, and he was a more astute judge of character than people gave him credit for. “I’m looking for a woman who’ll take me seriously,” he said. “Someone who can see beyond my partying past.”
“I dig it. You want a chick who sees you’re more than just a pretty face and a good time.”
“Something like that.” And maybe he wanted a woman who had more going for her than looks alone. Not that he thought beautiful women were shallow. He knew plenty of smart, savvy and sexy chicks. But so far he hadn’t made a real connection with any of them.
“I’ll have to think on this awhile,” Zephyr said. “Somewhere there has got to be the perfect woman for you.”
“Thanks, but I’d as soon find her on my own.”
“Doesn’t mean I can’t keep my eyes open to help you out. After all, sometimes our friends know us better than we know ourselves.”
If that was true, Bryan thought, then he was in trouble. His friends apparently saw him as either a sellout or a slacker. Neither was a very flattering picture.
