As the workweek continued Sabrina and Travis tried three more restaurants.

“I still want to try that fondue place. We’ve had steak, Chinese, sushi, and French food. And while they were nice, I want something bigger, better. Something to rave about. What do you think?” she asked Travis.

“I agree. The eateries were enjoyable, great food, nice ambience, but none of them were overly impressive. We need something spectacular for the perfect place for a romantic Valentine’s Day meal. We have to try that fondue place as soon as I can get reservations.”

Sitting at Travis’ desk, she wrote a review on her laptop, putting a positive spin on each and hit save. “All updated. What about the florists? I love that one we went to in Fair Oaks.”

“You love the exotic flowers.”

“I agree.” She couldn’t wait to have a home of her own with a nice big yard where she’d plant all the fragrant flowers she’d recently discovered.

She rated them. “How about the candy stores? Which did you like best?”

“The one in Old Sac has the best turtles and I loved all the old fashioned candy at the one on Second Street.”

“You have to admit the truffles at the one on Riverside were the best.” She licked her lips.

“How many of those did you try?”

“That night or when I went back for more?”

“What? You went back without me? No fair. Did you get more Kruffles? I noticed you were particularly fond of them?”

She had to laugh at the mock anger he tried to pull off. “What was your favorite?”

“The fudge, I never get enough of it.”

“I’d never have figured you for such a sweet tooth.”

“It’s my kryptonite.”

She already had a complete list of shows available during the week of Valentine’s Day. She was grateful it was finally crossed it off her to do list. “I finished the article on What is Love? It’s in your inbox.”

“I read it before lunch. Nice job.”

She had yet to tackle the right angle for the sex article. She’d managed to narrow down the field. It wouldn’t be so much about the act of sex, but something to help lead up to sex. And the problem only grew the more she interacted with Travis, because she could think of any number of things she’s like to do with him. She drew in a deep breath before confiding her biggest problem to Travis. “About the other, I’m having trouble getting started.”

“Talk to me. What’s the topic?”

“That’s just it, I don’t have one.”

“What’s the problem?” He frowned.

“Deciding on one topic.”

“What do you have to choose from?”

“Nothing and nothing.”

“I see. How can I help?”

“You can’t. I wish you could, but then I’d never be able to look you in the eyes again. It’s bad enough you know so many of my secrets.” She looked away, couldn’t bear to see him laughing at her again.

“Mind if I ask a question?”

“Shoot.”

“How are you going to figure it out? Do you have someone else to talk to?”

“I’m going to talk to Kat and Jill.
