Chapter 3

We walked back into the ballroom just as everyone was being seated for dinner and Will’s accompanying speech. He led me to a table at the front of the room and pulled out a chair for me. Of course, his manners were impeccable and I shouldn’t have been surprised by the gesture. His hand grazed my back and lingered there a moment as I sat in the chair he had pulled out.

Will placed his other hand on the shoulder of the older gentleman sitting next to me, “Amy, I’d like you to meet my good friend, Ed Simpson, and his wife, Beth.”

“Hello, it’s nice to meet you,” I replied with a genuine smile. They seemed like such a happy couple sitting there while Ed sweetly held his wife’s hand comfortably on the table.

Beth beamed back at me with a bright smile of her own, “Hello, Dear.” She leaned across her husband and waved for me to lean in closer, “You seem to be a little more down to earth than the other one Will had hanging on his arm before. I hope you’re in for the long haul… we’d rather not see her back with him.” She loudly whispered with a playful scowl.

Blushing, I sat there for a second completely speechless, and Will burst out laughing, “Oh Beth, what would I do without you keeping me in line?” He said bending down and kissing her cheek, “We’ll just have to wait and see if Amy can put up with me, eh?” He winked at me, not so secretly, a little over exaggerated for the benefit of the Simpsons. The Will Channing charm was in full force.

I joined in the laughter sensing the happy ease that this couple brought out in him, but I couldn’t help but feel like his feelings for me were a little bit of an act. Granted, I really couldn’t help but be charmed by the man. I mean, charm is what he did for a living, he was just so good at it, and obviously I wasn’t immune to it. He made my insides complete mush with his smile and that damned wink that made me forget I had legs to hold me up. But, on the other hand, my senses screamed at me to keep the wall I had safely built around my heart to remain intact. I would do just that, even if I had to pretend he didn’t affect me the way he did. I had to keep myself safe. And Will Channing had to win the election.

Will sat next to me and happily conversed with those at our table while we ate our meal. Watching him I could see he truly cared for the people seated with us and I wondered what the connection was that allowed him to be so at ease with them. He was charming, yes, but it wasn’t the contrived or practiced charm he displayed for those he wanted to sway, it was different. It was real.

As we finished up dessert, the Mayor introduced Will for his speech.
