She had me by an inch or so, but that was almost a foot adjustment from the last girl I had dated. "So, this is my place."I looked around. She had som... nice art on the walls and a view of downtown Seattle across the water."It's cool. Great view and plenty of light. And so convenient!" "Well, not really. I have a long commute." Yes, but I'm only two blocks away."It was a groaner, but I made her laugh, which has always been my most successful approach to gaining a woman's approval. She invited me. ”Turn around, Sis,” Jamie said, ”I'll wash your back.”She gladly did as he instructed. Hanging her head under the steaming stream of water, she placed her hands on the shower wall and let the water ease her road-weary body. Her brother ran his soapy hands over her back, massaging her slight frame. ”Mmmmm, brother, that feels good,” Janie moaned through the wet hair that draped over her face down to her white shoulders.Jamie moved closer, wrapping his arms around her wet body. She felt his. ”“We’ve been waiting for you all day,” Amy Ray said. “We were afraid to wander around much, since we were both so anxious to see you again. Hurry up, we’ll get your bags and carry them up to your room for you.”“Go ahead,” Gail told her charges, “I’ll finish checking in and meet you up there. The rooms already paid for, so I don’t think the hotel will have a problem providing you with the room key. We can get some dinner in the hotel restaurant afterwards. That way we can stay in one location in. " I'll bet the cupboards need cleaning. I haven't done it for months." She smiled gratefully at him. "And as for chucking things out, I'll bet you find at least one pot of jam or marmalade with mould on the top."Her smile spread and there was not a hint of hardness. "Good," she said and her smile changed from one of pleasure and relief to mischief. "It's not just you, Uncle Steven, but when it comes to housekeeping men don't have a clue." Oh, they don't and where, young lady, did you learn that.
