I passed a blonde walking down the side of the road wearing a long white dress, like one would wear to a formal dance. She made me recall something I ...eard years in the past, about picking up a girl if she looked cute. I followed that advice and stopped to offer her a ride, and she accepted it gratefully. I mentioned that I was going to go meet someone and asked if that would be okay. She said yes. She had nowhere to go and could stay with me, which was fine.I drove to the meeting at a pizza. When?”“Why don’t I pick you up about seven?”“Seven it is. I’ll see you then.”She called the club and got the weekend off. If they were going to work things out they would need to talk over a lot of things. She wondered how David would react to the news. But first things first.Howard picked her up promptly at seven and they were soon finishing a meal at one of the nicer restaurants in town.“So what did you want to talk about?” she asked coyly. She was wearing the dress that was his favorite and. He felt a stirring in his loins as he considered that his conspirator’s other suggestion might also be true and he could bed the woman if he would only stay and let her take him home.But, if his father learned of such a liaison, it would jeopardize something far more important. He would almost certainly be left tending the business at home during these trips, rather than having the opportunity to seek out new magic. With just such a possibility on the horizon, he suppressed the swell of ardor. By the way…I invited Kai and Ben here…they might come around 1 PM he calmly said. U-Uh!? I said spitting a little of the milk in the bowl. Hey…why the surprise…know something that I dont? he asked lifting his eyebrow, Kain had some kind of 6th sense to stuff like that, he knew when people were nervous, lying and even hiding a sad face behind a smile, and that was something I admired about him. N-No, not at all… I said nervously, Kain just lifted his eyebrow again, when I was lying, Id always.
