Tearing her eyes away, trouble would come if she didn't focus on something else. Her eyes drifted around the room, taking in the sparse furnishings, paneled walls, and... "Crap." He was there with...

Why had she cornered herself? How could she get out of here now without causing a scene? If only Penny were here. She peeked around a muscular arm. She moaned at the sight. If only the floor would open up and swallow her.
