<span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">Kate maybe blanched a little when she found Josh Nakhti’s fingers wrapping into her upper arm so that he could assist her back up. Really, Kate was not <em>awful</em> walking in heels! If she was that bad she would not have worn them in the first place. Kate could very easily hold her own seductive pace upon those sexy instruments given the right amount of focus. It was just those certain obstacles that threw her off, such as turning tight corners or stepping down stairs. When Josh assisted her she just about flushed a deep red; embarrassed, but you had to look quick to catch it. Her ‘moving on’ personality very quickly covered up that embarrassment and replaced it with a flustering persona, one with stammering words and shocked surprise…”Th…thank you.”<br/><br/>The <em>Lamb and Flag</em> sounded like the perfect place she had in mind, and quickly agreed with Josh. Although the cab ride was very short, the driver made good use of every single second spent with his customers. Kate was laughing at his jokes, and was thankful for the ice-breaking moment. The threesome seemed to be quickly thrown together…a few people wanting to have a good time…and was harmless enough despite being unfamiliar with each other.<br/><br/>When they arrived at their destination Josh seemed to be correct in everything he had said about the place. It was very light-hearted and comfortable. Kate smiled when Andrea ordered a Cosmo. That was a good drink, but for some reason she felt like having a different taste of spirit this evening. “Make mine a vodka sunrise please.” She watched Josh disappear and briefly delved into those earlier feelings of being jealous about him and everything he has accomplished. If she would have pursued the Egyptian study like her parents wanted her to from the beginning, she could be as well-known as he was today. Maybe though…just maybe the time spent at the <em>Lamb and Flag</em> will change her feelings about him altogether. He seemed like a fun person to be around with.<br/><br/>Kate smiled at Andrea and listened to her response to the earlier question. Her own eyes sparkled in humor at Andrea’s teasing jest. The more she learned about Andrea the more she enjoyed her company. They seemed like two totally different people…but they always said that opposites attracted each other, friendship or otherwise. “Ah now Andrea, there is something very gratifying about being on your hands and knees in the dirt…the stuff you encounter is personally rewarding! You should come with me one day to a dig site. I guarantee that you will never be the same person again regarding archaeology.”<br/><br/><em> "So what do you think the odds are of us finding out about that tattoo you mentioned tonight?"</em><br/><br/>“Mmm…” Kate leaned back in her chair with a desirably playful moan. A grin spread across her lips and her eyes danced back at Andrea in eagerness, “I bet our odds will turn considerably in our favor if we can get him to drink enough.” She leaned over and whispered to Andrea now, seeing how Josh was nearing with their drinks. “He already looks like he is about to burst at the seams.”<br/><br/>Kate dashed a friendly smile at Josh when he returned and took her drink, swirling the colored liquid around…”I was just sharing with Andrea how she should visit a real archaeology site someday. She says she has never been to one. I bet you and I could drag her out of that office one day and show her a good time, don’t you agree Josh?” <br/></span>
