Chapter 14

Abby settled in to read a magazine on the sofa. As she flipped through the pages the elevator doors opened and out walked Sam.

“What are you doing here?”

Without a word, Sam went over to Abby and took her into his arms. As the hands that thrilled millions on the football field caressed her body, Abby felt a thrill she hadn’t felt in years. The feel of his breath on her neck as he kissed her made her weak in the knees. Her passion reawakened, she pulled Sam closer to her. He’d lit a fire in her and she was prepared to burn.

“Abby,” he moaned softly as he opened her blouse and kissed her breasts.

“Abby.”

Jolted, Abby opened her eyes.

“Are you all right?” Shana asked.

“I’m fine. I just dozed off.”

“That must have been some dream you were having.”

“Why would you say that?”

“You were smiling.”

“I was?”

“Yes. You must have been dreaming about a man. Perhaps it was Sam?”

“Don’t be silly.” She brushed the idea off.

“Then what were you dreaming about?”

“I don’t remember my dreams.” She yawned. “What time is it, anyway?”

“It’s ten o’clock.”

“Oh, did you just finish the day?”

“No. I finished earlier. I’ve been on the phone with Raymond.”

“I see.” Abby smiled mischievously. “What did you and Mr. Hanson talk about?”

“Valentine’s Day,” her face lit up. “He’s picking me up early Friday for a special evening.”

“That sounds promising. Did he give you any hints?”

“He told me to pack a toothbrush and a smile.”

She and Abby laughed.

“I still wish you were doing something for Valentine’s Day.”

“I’m heading up to Choate on Friday to meet with the headmaster. After that I’m going to relax so I’ll be fresh when I see Justin first thing Saturday morning.”

“I still don’t see why you don’t spend the day with Justin. I’m sure he wouldn’t mind.”

“Justin has a dance that night and I don’t want to cramp his style. There’s nothing worse than having your mother hovering over you all night like a helicopter.”

“If you say so,” Shana said with her arms folded.

“I do.”

“Where are you staying?”

“I managed to get the Brae Cottage at the High Meadow Bed & Breakfast.”

The High Meadow Bed and Breakfast was originally constructed in Branford in 1742 as the Jonathan Towner Half Way Tavern. It served as a travelers’ stop halfway between New York and Boston. In the mid-seventies it was moved to High Meadows Farm. It was a charming place with several rooms, but the Brae Cottage was the most coveted to Abby. It had a large living room with cathedral ceilings, fireplace, a large bedroom, kitchen and bathroom. It was also separate from the inn and sat in an open field next to the woods and overlooked a pond.

“How did you manage that?”

“I booked it last year. I love Choate, but some of the parents are a little too amped up for me. You know what I mean?”

“I don’t have children, so I know exactly what you mean. If I had a dime for every picture or story I’ve listened to, I’d be independently wealthy.
