I smoothed the material of my black pencil skirt down over my hips as I walked into my office. I noticed Andrea on her way in as well and she bounded into my office, flashing a bright smile on her way. She had her red mop piled on top of her head in an attractive, but messy, up do.

“So? How was the weekend? Did your hottie friend make it into town?”

I smiled up at her because I couldn’t help myself and a flush of heat crept up on my cheeks. “Yes. He did. We had a fabulous time together.”

“Hmmm…I can see that by the look of you. I thought this dude was just your friend, Julia.”

I flipped on my computer and waited for it to boot up. “Yes, he’s my best friend. We met when I was a freshman in college.”

“So? Do I have to drag it out of you?” She laughed and plopped down in the chair in front of my desk. My office was small and the desk, the two chairs and the art board took up most of the space.
