Saturday and the office was closed and I was working from home with Ash on her computer and I glanced up to look at her. She was dressed in a chocolat... brown T Shirt and Jeans and had some sort of jacket on her.We finished some personal documentation when her hubby dropped by. We chatted for some time as usual then he informed Ash that he will be late today as his boss had called the staff for an office party. Ash was OK with the idea. There was not much to do so by around noon we were back to. We have only gone out with each other and I won’t go out with someone else unless you go out too.’ ‘But who would I go out with? I don’t know anyone…’ ‘Yes, you do. You just told me about Marcie. If you ask her to go out with you, then I will go out with Ron.’ ‘You’re not kidding are you?’ ‘No. I’ve been thinking about it all weekend. He asked me out last Friday. I told him I would think about it. I’ve thought about it and I want you to go out with someone else too.’ ‘I doubt that she will go. She has a couple posters of you in her room, and I wouldn't be surprised if she had some crazy fantasies in that head of hers the way she looks at them.” Matt ignored him, instead keeping his eyes on me. Very gently, his fingers wrapped around the palm of my undamaged hand, enveloping it entirely. “Squeeze if you need.” That smile did not falter in the slightest, relaxing me even more than being in the hospital did. Shots had never been much of a bother, so when the IV needle slid. I thought I looked rather cute. Apparently Blaine Carlisle did too. He made a serious pass at me but I just told him Mom wasn't letting me date yet. Poor boy. He looked crestfallen. Now I was getting an appreciation for the power girls had. This was NEAT!That night, mom and Daddy got ready for bed and came back to watch the 10 o'clock news. None of us had our robes on and Daddy's figure was well, blossoming. And he was wearing the cutest mules too. "Pretty slippers Daddy," I said. .
