<strong>Emily</strong><br/><strong>At the office</strong><br/><strong>With Frank</strong><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">“Oh goodness!” Emily tried to process all this shocking information. “Those poor boys, in that car! And thank goodness Sam wasn’t with them, how lucky!  No wonder you look a bit shaken up Frank.  How incredibly close that was!”</span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">God, it <em>was </em>shocking that she just happened to have seen Frank looking at the photo and offered to pick Sam up.  And only so she could get to meet his sister - Sam would never know he owed his life to his sister’s looks!  Well, to be fair Emily had suggested the boat not so much for Chrissie as to try and get Sam talking as Frank had asked.   Otherwise she’d have let Sam go off as he rather obviously had wanted to, and perhaps had Chrissie all to herself in the boat…</span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">Emily shook her head to clear it, before her mind started wandering off about anchoring somewhere or desert islands…</span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">Now…a barbecue?  Shit.  On the one hand she was desperate to see Chrissie again, but on the other hand how could she be sure of keeping her ridiculous infatuation hidden from both parents? </span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">And Church??  That ended the last miniscule chance that Chrissie’s parents would be happy about an older woman knocking off their sweet seventeen-year-old daughter!!</span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">Shit! </span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">If Chrissie would even be interested.  Though she had been quite cool about Emily announcing her lesbianism.</span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">Anyway, she was in danger of taking too long to respond.  A prior appointment?  Or see Chrissie?</span><br/><br/><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: verdana;">“Oh thank you Frank, that would be lovely!  Do thank your wife, and I look forward to meeting her.”</span><br/><br/>
