                  “Okay,” he said, and pulled into the driveway.
                  “Wait here for a minute?” she asked him as she opened the door.
                  “Sure,” he said, and put the truck in park.
                  She climbed out of the truck and walked inside quickly, then grabbed one of her books. She scribbled a little note for him in it and walked quickly back out to the truck. Mike opened his door and stepped down when she got close to the truck.
                  “Here,” she said, handing him the book.
                  “What’s this?” he asked.
                  “One of my books. You said you wanted to read one, so here you go.”
                  “Thank you,” he said with a smile. By the way he was acting, she was starting to wonder if he had ever gotten a gift before. He was holding it so carefully, making sure not to push it too hard or bend a page by accident. It was a little strange, but endearing. Books don’t break that easily, unless you start ripping the pages out.
                  “No problem. Thanks for the ride,” she said, and walked back toward the house.
                  Mike watched as Lucy walked back into her house. He wanted to make sure she got back in okay. That was only part of the truth; he wanted to see her for just a little longer. There was something about her that made him not want to leave. He watched as a light turned on in her house and decided he should leave before she called the cops, thinking he was a stalker. But first he wanted to look at the book she had given him. He opened it to find a note inside. “Mike, thanks for everything. You saved my sanity. Lucy.”
                  Yeah, he really needed to see her again, and he had a feeling that, if she didn’t want to see him again, he wouldn’t be holding the book in his hands. Closing it, he carefully put it down on the passenger seat and backed out of her driveway.

                  “Come back and visit soon,” Lucy said to Lexi as she walked her out to her rental car.
                  “I will, and you come visit me. There’s a new club that just opened. I want to take you there some time.”
                  “We’ll see. Maybe when things slow down some.”
                  “Lucy, look at who you’re talking to. I know you. Things never slow down. Just come visit some time, okay? You can take a few days off. Maybe when you’re between books?” she asked.
                  “I’ll try. How about that?” Lucy said with a smile.
                  “All right, I guess that’s better than nothing. Make sure you go back to the bar and talk to Mike. He’s hot and has a thing for you. I can tell, I have the eye,” Lexi said pointing to her eye.
                  “Okay,” Lucy said, laughing at her sister’s antics.
                  “And that means you’ll never go back. Please, see him again for me. You need a life. You need to get out of this house. You need more companionship than your characters.”
                  “But that’s what I have you for.”
                  “Lucy,” Lexi said, chastising her.
                  “Okay fine. I’ll get out more, I promise.” She purposely didn’t say where she would go.
                  “Good, now do some things that I would do and have some fun,” she said with a smile, and hugged Lucy goodbye.
                  “I love you,” Lucy said, releasing Lexi.
                  “I love you too,” she said and got in her car.
                  Lucy walked back into her house and looked around. This was the first time in a week it had been quiet. It was way too quiet to work and she had a lot
