<div class="floatleft">(http://www4.pictures.zimbio.com/mp/V1pmAj5ipiTx.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong><strong>Kate Morgan</strong>(https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=264761.msg13074497#msg13074497)<br/><strong>Time / Location:</strong>Evening - St. Clair Residence<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Callista Reed, Thomas Eckhart<br/><strong>Content:</strong>Introductions, meeting gets underway<br/><br/><hr/><br/>It seemed the meeting would to be starting late, and Kate was growing more impatient as time slipped by.  The cheap wine she drank wasn’t helping matters either, but at least she was enjoying the company of Vi and Callista.   When Tom sauntered over and sat next to Callista, she gave him a thumb’s up, grinning teasingly.<br/><br/>“Well, now that all the important folk are here, maybe we can start the meeting?”  She laughed and added, “Our new leader isn’t making a good first impression, I can guarantee you that!”.<br/><br/>When there was mention of a party next door, Kate’s first thoughts went to Timothy.  He was supposedly at home studying for some big exam, but knowing him like she did, he was probably present and accounted for wherever the alcohol was plentiful.<br/><br/>As Tom, Vi and Callista made their own introductions, Kate apologized for her lack of manners.<br/><br/>“Well shit!  I’m so sorry.”  She went ahead and re-introduced them, just to make herself feel better.  “Tom?  This is Vi and Callista.  Vi? Callista?  Tom”.  The discretion Tom exhibited hadn't gone unnoticed by Kate, and she was thankful she could trust him in that regard.  The little knowing grin that he gave her sent a tingle of lust over her body, and she hoped the two might meet up later to scratch that itch.<br/><br/><br/>________________________________________<br/><br/><br/>The Prez finally showed up and called the meeting to order.  The room eventually quieted down, but the noise next door seemed to be ramping up.  The business at hand wasn’t anything that a quick memo could have taken care of, but the new fines that were introduced was enough to garner groans and murmurs from several of the home owners.  And Kate could have sworn she heard a few giggle snorts when James brought up the whole Santa/reindeer fiasco.<br/><br/>The meeting suddenly took a different turn when the noise across the street grew much louder.   James threatened Gregory Eames with a fine if he didn’t do something about the noise level, and that made Kate start to panic, thinking maybe she should go over and check things out for herself.  She certainly didn’t need any fines or trouble from with the board, and if Timothy was there at the party, he might be putting her at risk.<br/>
