Roxy

When her alarm went off at six in the morning, Roxy was tempted to just stay in bed. She really hated getting up so early. However, she knew if she wanted to get a few things done before Jackson showed up to hijack her day she needed to roll out of bed. She wandered down to the kitchen and started the coffee pot and then wandered back to her bathroom. She took a long hot shower and washed her hair. Then she wondered how to dress for the day but figured since he just asked to spend the day with her; they weren’t doing anything too dressy. So, she put on a pair of Jeans and a mid-length sleeved shirt.

She fixed her coffee and then grabbed her computer looking over the Disaster City Search and Rescue website re-familiarizing herself with the different types of Search and Rescue, they were involved in. It became apparent pretty quick that they could handle any situation in Texas and the surrounding areas urban, desert, forest/jungle, mountainous, even arctic; though a Texas winter might be icy and cold, it hardly stood up to the ones Jackson and company faced in Alaska and further north. Still she started making some notes about gear she would suggest for each setting and putting together the Ultimate all environment package as well. When she was sure her parents would be up, she gathered the courage and placed the call she really didn’t want to make. At least she could honestly say, she was busy this weekend. Between getting groceries and spending time with Jackson today and tomorrow as well as checking the shipping list that Colette sent her against what she wanted her weekend was full. She hit the contact for her mom and took a few calming breathes as she waited for her to answer. “What’s wrong Roxy?”

The worry in her mother's voice threw her for a minute. “Hi mom nothing’s wrong why would you think that?”

“Why because this is the first time since you left us that you’ve ever called. We always have to call you.”

“Oh, I’m sorry I didn’t think about that. I just wanted to let you know I was in town for about a month. I didn’t want someone to see me and call you before I could tell you.”

“You’re back? To stay?”

“No mom. I have a client to see here. I’ll be working with them for a few weeks, a month give or take probably, before I have to go home to Alaska.”

“Why would a secretary at a luxury resort be meeting a client in our small Texas community?”

Roxy bit her lip and tried not to let her irritation show in her voice. “Mom I haven’t been a secretary since I left Georgia. I was hired to be Rudy Holliday’s personal assistant but got promoted almost a year ago now. I sent you and dad both an email when it happened. I’m the vice president of operations for Alaskan Wilderness and Survival Gear. You know Mister Holliday’s company.
