Great, Andi thinks to herself, she can't sleep. And there's only one sure-fire fix for that...She reaches Andi and bends forward, putting her hands fl...t on the desk, her long blonde hair flopping down and covering the side of her face. The négligé droops forward, giving Andi a view through her cleavage down to her pierced belly button. Kate makes a pouty face and mimes trying to fall asleep on her pillow. Andi bites her lip, looks up into Kate's eyes, and realizes Kate isn't going anywhere. Ben had offered us his mountain cabin for our summer vacation when we'dbrought up that we were thinking about breaking our yearly beach habit.We had worked together for years and he happened to join Kayla and mefor lunch the day we were discussing possible plans for our trip. Benwas a colleague of mine in an IT department for a large bank as well asa longtime buddy, kind of.Ben and I had always gotten along but I wouldn't call him a closefriend. We had initially bonded over a few sci-fi films,. We were almost to the end when Liz appeared in the room.“Come back to the office when you’re finished here, please,” she said.I grunted my assent since I was in the middle of forcing my arm outward with a stick and it wasn’t the most pleasant feeling I’d ever experienced.Liz stood and watched for a moment before smiling sadly and heading back to work.“Is she mad?” Kim asked from the treadmill.“Probably,” I muttered.“Ben says that everything is falling in line like neat little dominoes,” Kim. " I said."Anything else?" We think that's it as far as the mods are concerned, but she's stillunconscious and probably will remain so for another day to give herbody a chance to heal..."I hugged Amanda. "I'm glad she's going to be okay." Me too..." she said softly. "Well, I think it would be a good idea toget you out of here Stacy. Megan, do you think you could stay at Momand Dad's with her tonight? At least one of them will probably be theretoo, but that way I know someone else is there?".
