Strictly Professional
“The strawberry fragrance reminded him of visits to California when he was a kid with all the strawberry fields everywhere. Coming from her hair, it made him think of sunshine, picnics, long walks, and babies.
For a split second, he let his mouth drift toward hers. A loud honk interrupted his thoughts and a man yelled from his car. “Hey! Do that somewhere else, would ya? Some of us need to drop off passengers, too.”
He quickly released her and muttered, “Sorry.”
“It’s my fault. I caught my foot ...on the running board, I think.” She shifted to her left foot and moved away. “Thanks for catching me, though. I can’t imagine going to my parents with a big black eye.”
“Sure. I guess I’ll see you when you get back.” He let a smile drift across his mouth. “Have a good time.” Her nose wrinkled and he chuckled. “Okay maybe not, but at least you’ll get to see your sisters and your parents.”
A quick lift of her lips and his heart slammed against his ribs.
“I haven’t seen them for awhile, so visiting will be good.”MoreLess
