I wake up Friday morning, after a desperately needed full night's sleep, and find Chelsea's sent me a link to CNN. I follow it to breaking news that a plane slid off a JFK runway shutting down two main runways. The barely reopened airport has been forced to cancel half its flights, including hers. She ends her text with emojis of fireworks, smiley faces, and hearts.

Propping an extra pillow under my head, I call her. She answers on the first ring. "You just can't get rid of me." Her voice is light with excitement.

"Kind of like mold in the basement." I tease, but I'm pumped she's still here. "I don't suppose Dominic's decided to give you the day off."

"Hardly, but he gave me time to buy some clothes that don't smell like a men's locker room."

I can't imagine Chelsea smelling anything but perfect. "Does that mean no more Hot Stuff across your bum."

"That's my first goal, to find something plain and boring."

"Darn, I liked how those letters hugged your, uh, assets. Any chance I can steal you for lunch or dinner? Maybe a quick coffee or a quick snogging in the back hall when Dominic isn't looking?"

She giggles, the sound is music to my ears. "I'll try to sneak away at some point. What's your day like?"

"It's Friday, so other than an early meeting and a run, my day is flexible."

"I'd think your show was workout enough."

"It's the start of a four-show weekend. That's four shows in forty-eight hours. If I don't stay strong and in shape, I'll never get through it."

"Sounds exhausting, now that you put it that way."

It can be. But I refuse to let it hold me back. "Give me a call when you get a break. I'll be standing by."
