Heather Graham - Kiss Of Darkness

“Fine, laugh at me,” Stacey said a little indignantly. “Wait until you see him.”

Jessica stepped past her, entering the house, setting down her purse and briefcase. Stacey followed, hovering near her. Jessica shook her head, laughing. “This isn’t a big corporation,” she whispered. “You’re welcome to have a crush on a guest.”

Stacey flushed. “Don’t be silly. I’m seeing Bobby Munro, and I wouldn’t have a crush on a guest, anyway. He’s just…oh, you’ll see.”

“I’m sure I will.” She still felt a smile twitching her lips as she turned and walked back to the entry table to leaf through the mail.

“Oh, hey,” Stacey said, “Big Jim wants to know if you’re up for a game of Trivial Pursuit.”

“Tonight?”

It was Stacey’s turn to laugh. “Hey, Friday night, wild excitement, you know.”

“Ha, ha.”

“It’ll do you good to have some fun.”

“Well, I mean, your trip turned out to be…eventful,” Stacey said. “I only know what was in the papers, but it sounded pretty awful.”

“My heart bleeds for those kids, but I’m fine. Don’t go tiptoeing around my feelings. Thank you for your concern, but it’s not necessary. I’m not obsessed with it, so don’t you be, okay?” What a crock. It was all still there in her mind, no matter whom she was working with or what she was doing.

She turned. “Trivial Pursuit will be fine. I want to take a shower and chill out first, though. Will you call Big Jim back for me? Tell him about eight. We’ll play here. Who else is coming?”
