Chapter Nine

When Georgina awoke the following morning she wasn't sure which part of her hurt the worst: her head, her heart, or her pride. She threw her silk robe over her shoulders and trundled into the kitchen, where her access to the sink was blocked by an enormous bouquet of flowers. She hoisted them out of the water and shoved them into a black garbage bag. She'd go down to the basement and dump them in the trash, leaving them right at the top where Rick was bound to see them.

What was she going to do? If Rick wouldn't sleep with her, she'd never complete her project, and failure wasn't an option for Georgina Coleman.

She stalked to the hall, where she retrieved the flowchart out of her briefcase. She studied it for a few quiet moments.

Perhaps it wasn't such a disaster after all. Five milestones achieved in one night. Georgina ticked them off with her fingers to make sure. And she hadn't even done anything to learn about sex. No need. That had been a surprise. Her body knew what to do, even if her brain didn't.

She folded the flowchart and stored it away with renewed determination.

Seductive behavior.

She'd work on that one, until Rick had no choice but to capitulate.

"What's up? You look frazzled,” Annabel said to Georgina on Monday morning.

"I got drunk on Saturday night. I spent most of yesterday huddled up in bed with a terrible hangover."

"Drunk? You?” Annabel said in disbelief. “What on earth brought that about?"

"I was working on my project. Alcohol seemed to speed things along."

Annabel's eyes grew wide. “That stupid project. How did it go?"

Georgina missed their earlier closeness, and decided to sacrifice her dignity. Perhaps a tale of her Saturday night's disaster would break the ice between them.

"It's going brilliantly.” She held up her hand, fingers splayed. “Five milestones in one night."

"What,” Annabel cried. “Did you..."

"Almost.” Georgina bit her lip. It wasn't easy to disclose her intimate failures. “We would have, but Rick panicked when he found out I was a virgin."

"You're a virgin?” Annabel blurted out.

"But surely you knew?"

"No.” Annabel stared at her. “I mean, I knew you were ... inexperienced. I thought, perhaps you'd been in a bad relationship. But I never realized you..."

"Enough,” Georgina said dryly. “I get the drift. I'm a freak."

Annabel reached out to touch her arm. “That's not what I meant."

"Rick certainly freaked out.” Georgina pulled a face.

"What did he do?"

"He bounced off the bed, threw on his clothes, and bolted out of the door."

"Did he say anything?"

"Yes. He said ‘I'll call you'."

Annabel tittered. “You've got to be kidding."

"No.” Georgina shook her head. “I swear, that's what he said."

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to do exactly what I planned to do,” Georgina said firmly. “What this project has been about from day one. I'm going to seduce the bastard, even if it means I have to dance naked in front of him in the streets."

"That might not be a good strategy,” Annabel pointed out.
