Chapter One

Connor was at a small bookstore alone. The fact that Connor was a bookstore was not odd by it self but the fact he was without his other half was almost unheard over. Connor loved his brother as Murphy loved him however every once in a while they separated for a few hours to be alone and do things only one of them wanted to do. At this moment in time Connor wanted to be at a bookstore looking through stacks and stacks of books. Connor loved history and enjoyed nothing more than to read about the great moments in history and their players.

He was running his fingers from one spine to the next in the history section when he stopped breathing. Connor had spotted the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen. She was tall for a woman, 5'8" if he had to guess. And she was slender, not deathly skinny but fit skinny. From his distance from her he was certain she had blue eyes and was dying to get closer to verify how blue they were. Her hair was chestnut and in a messy bun. All he could do was stare at her. She was stunning.

The young lady was currently helping another customer and the older lady must have said something funny because she just lit up. Her laugh was infectious. Before Connor knew what he was doing he had the biggest smile adorned across his face. As she finished laughing she looked up and spotted Connor and Connor felt like she was looking into his soul. She just smiled at him as the old lady kept talking to her. As she was talking to the older lady she kept stealing glances at him and Connor's eyes never left her, until she walked away,

The young lady walked away with the old lady into the stacks and stacks of books most likely to help her find a book so with that Connor decided he had been a perv long enough so he went to leave the store.

He decided to head to McGinty's. He was hoping Murphy was there and maybe Murphy between his teasing could help him come up with a battle plan. Plus he needed a beer or two!

Connor walked into McGinty's and as the door shut he saw Murphy at the bar nursing a Guinness.

"Doc, a pint please." Connor said as he sat down next to Murphy. Doc slid over a Guinness to the other MacManus as Murphy looked over at his brother.

"Where have you been?"

"No where just walking around."

"Umm so why do you have that stupid look on your face?" Murphy said with a smirk.

"Shut it."

Bother brothers turned to their respective beers and started to drink. It got very quiet between the two. Murphy all of the sudden looked up and said,

"Well, I am waiting..." Connor just gave him a questioning look "Are you going to tell me what you were doing before coming to McGinty's?"

"Bloody Hell, fine. I saw a lass."

"Fuck Connor you have the dumbest look on your face because you saw a lass? Did you talk to this lass?"

"Umm, no… Murph she was the prettiest lass I have ever seen."

"Oh is that right Casanova? Is that why you just stared at her like some stalker, her beauty made you forget how to speak?"

"Fuck yew, she was talking to some old lady." With that Connor went back to his beer as Doc placed another pint in front of each boy. Connor just grabbed his second pint and nursed his bruised ego. Murph was just laughing at his chicken shit brother. Connor would go back to the bookstore and this time talk to her, Murph could go fuck himself at least Connor now had a plan.
