</div><span style="font-family: 'Georgia'">It never failed:  the scent of Grace's perfume, her coming into his 'personal space', her little touches, all made him want to believe that just maybe Grace might actually love him on some level.  He'd had to push down the thoughts that he first had when he first saw her today in her dress.  The dress that molded itself to every exciting curve of her body.  Now, he was supposed to stand still like a good soldier as she played at straightening his tie and lifting her knee to rub against his leg.  Sometimes, when Karl thought that Grace was testing him he would make a show of resisting her charms.  While this didn't seem to be the right time, Karl did not think that Grace was teasing him. <br/>
<br/>
Karl gently reached forward to grab Grace by the waist and pull her in close to him.  Softly, he said to her raising her self proclaimed status above the other women in the mansion, <span class="fixed-color" style="color:rgb(84, 172, 210)">"Grace, you could never be less than a <i><u>beautiful</u></i> blonde."</span><br/>
<br/>
Karl then leaned his head down to softly kiss Grace on the lips, while one of his strong hands slid from the side of her waist down and back to cup and gently squeeze a butt cheek.  His other hand he brought upwards behind Grace's head, but he didn't pull her into him, in case he'd completely misread her signals.</span>
