Not thepicture, but it drove the point home

"Have you been to a funeral recently?" she asked

One corner of his mouth curved up "Is that a hint?"

She furrowed her brow before realization dawned in her blue eyes "Maybe," she said, "but only if you give me any trouble"

He liked it when she teased hier at her to follow him

"This way"

He took her into a small closet in a room across the hall, one where they both barely fit He liked the vibe in here, the two of them so very close She smelled flowery, yet sultry He wanted to pull her close, breathe in her hair, push it to the side, taste her neck, find out all over again where her most sensitive spots were He wanted to push back one of those boring suits she was going to go nuts over and take her hard and fast against the wall He could already picture her legs wrapped around his waist, her head thrown back, how daood it would feel when he slid into her

"Thank God," she said as she pulled out a basic navy pinstriped suit "I orried you didn't have any clothes that didn't scream pimp"

That snapped hih maybe she did have a point He'd never been all that coner clothes that his stylist picked out for him He hadn't even wanted a stylist in the first place, but his agent had insisted

Clearly, having Julie around wasn't all bad Especially if she could do some dirty work for him

"My stylist isn't going to be too happy with you"

She handed him several conservative suits "She's fired"

He held back a grin Who else did he need to get rid of? The guy who cut his hair was kind of annoying too

"Bring these out, then grab anything else you need," she said "I'll be waiting in your living room"

He hadn't realized until no sick he was of everyone doing his bidding without question It also kind of got hisher on her toes was an important part of the dance she probably didn't even realize they were doing

"I've got so out by the pool"

The disgusted look on her face was so cute, he nearly grabbed her and kissed it off

"First of all, I wouldn't wear one of the thong bikinis froirlfriends' "--she put the word in quotes--"if everything else I oent up in flames"

He nodded "That's cool I get it Girls with dirty minds like you alant to skinny-dip"

She ignored his dig "You have fifteen ether, then we're out of here"

"Just one problem with that," he said

She sighed a big, chest-heaving sigh that did s to her breasts "Why am I not surprised that there's a problem? What is it this time?"

"Bobby's i out is part of my job description"

"How long will that take?"

"A hundred laps usually takes forty-five et somewhere"

"No," she said, "We've got all the time in the world"

Wrong Teeks wasn't nearly enough tiive in to what she really wanted

Him

In her bed

Julie couldn't remember the last time she'd felt so off-kilter

So emotional

So horny

He wasn't nearly as du out over every little thing, thereby giving him endless ammo to hold over her

In the past twenty-four hours she'd been angrier, happier, and more satisfied than she'd been in the past ten years combined
