She looked him over appreciatively until her eyes fell on his wrist. He was wearing a beaded bracelet with a woman's name inscribed on it.
"I wonder if Kate is also wearing one with your name," said she.
He looked down at it and half smiled, "most likey not. We broke up."
"I'm guessing it wasn't your idea?"
"Does it cease to be a nice accessory if we're no longer together?"
She pinned him with a sideways look. He sucked in a breath and looked away. Then he let it out in a slow, loaded sigh before turning to look at her again.
Her mouth stretched into a tight-lipped, knowing smile.
"So rebound sex?" offered she.
He sucked in his breath again, but this time he didn't look away.
