Chapter Four

Libby opened the door to her home and turned on the lights. She placed her wristlet and keys in the large bowl on the table in the foyer. “Make yourself at home. I’ll be right back.”

She internally cursed with every step she took. She had really messed this night up and badly. The man she always fantasized about was in her house, she had been in his, and she had found more ways to screw it up than to make it successful. Of course, he wanted that thumb-drive back. Of course she should have sent it to him years ago. Not to mention the fact that she had totally violated his privacy by reading every document on it more than once over the years.

She wasn’t lying when she said his essay had changed her life. It was titled “The Girl Behind Me and The Woman Ahead of Her”. She knew he could have been talking about anyone, but it was about this amazing person that Libby wanted to become and she had spent her days since graduating doing just that. She had a job lined up at a newspaper after college, but the essay said that woman was meant for greatness, and knew her own worth, so Libby talked to her old professors and got hooked up with a job in the Big Easy and that eventually led her to the job she had now in The Big Apple. She was doing everything she ever dreamed of doing as a writer with only a couple of exceptions. They were major exceptions, but until now she hadn’t thought about them.

He stood in her living room looking at the bookshelf and the collection her father had left her. It was such a déjà vu moment for her. She had sobered, but she still couldn’t keep from looking him over head to toe and back again. He turned, and for the second time in less than twenty-four hours caught her eyes focused on his crotch. By the time her eyes made it to his he was looking a bit more offended than not.

She thought about the woman in the essay, the bold one, the independent thinker. She clutched the device in her palm and said, “I know that is the second time you caught me staring at your ass and then your crotch. I’m not a pervert; those are just some really…really nice jeans.”

“Noted.” He nodded. She saw him trying to stifle a yawn before he asked, “You have my flash-drive?”

“I do. I think you should stay here tonight.” She held up her hand with the device in it and added, “You’re tired. It’s almost midnight and that thunder means it is about to start pouring. It’s an hour and a half back to the city. I have a spare room and I would feel much better if you stayed in it than if you tried to drive home, fell asleep, slid off the road, or any other number of things that could happen.
