Samantha stood quietly before Christian for a moment, her slender body trembling, she shook her head slightly, still trying to clear her mind.  The reality of the situation finally returned to her, and she studied her toes for a moment, trying to figure out what to do, what to say.  She glanced up into his beautiful blue eyes for a moment, small white teeth bitting nervously at her lip, then quickly look away towards the house.  "I can take care of myself Christian, I'll be fine.  But what in the hell is going on in there?  Have you been inside yet?  Who are all of these people and why are you letting them trample all over everything?"  She finally paused her questioning long enough to take a breath, and glanced at Christian out of the corner of her eye.  He was more handsome than ever and even now the overwhelming chemisty between them amazed her.  She felt warm and flushed just standing next to him, every nerve in her body fully aware of his presence beside her.  Well....the chemisty she felt for him at least.  It never really had seemed to have much of an effect on him.<br/><br/>Her eyes were drawn to the open doorway and hesitantly she took a step forward.  Stopping quickly she looked back at Christian.  Her voice trembled, her words coming out as a whisper.  "It's incredible Chris, I haven't ever felt anything like it before.  What on earth is going on here?"  Her eyes searched his, looking for the answers.  The answers to this mystery, and so much more.
