Can't Buy Me Love
“Allison Morton said, and stirred sugar into her after-dinner coffee. “As I remember it, I waited nearly six months for you to notice me and another six months for you to ask me out.”
Stan smiled the smile of a man still desperately in love with his wife. “Well, it didn’t take six months for me to notice you. It only took two days. I called Sylvia in human resources the minute you got to the tenth floor.”
“So it took you a full year to ask me out?” Allison asked.
Stan turned his gaze... toward Meg with a grin and a pleading look. “Help an old guy out?”
Meg enjoyed the repartee between husband and wife. The entire evening had been filled with Stan and Allison’s stories and finally, after the plates were cleared and the after-dinner drinks served, they’d gotten around to the best story of all. The story of Allison and Stan’s first date.
