After repeating her curtsy, she plopped again into the loveseat. He gazed at her a moment.
“Why don’t you sit over here?” he finally drawled.
“I… uh… do you want me to?” she stammered.
She stammered!
But then she clambered out of the loveseat and sat — a full cushion away from him — on the sofa.

Drawled? As in southern drawl? A full cushion away, really? This is the longest most awkward lusty scene. It is going to get lusty isn’t it? *makes popcorn*

Hotels already? I think you’re cheating. I’m quite sure my girl is a good girl. She won’t get lusty. *headshake* No way.

Ah, another intriguing 55. Nicely done. :D

Oh, and anybody that wants it can feel free to pilfer the “My Vote Is Rocked” graphic I used in yesterday’s post. I’d include a sample, but I’m pretty sure your comments don’t support img tags. (Though I’m gonna try it anyway)…

Yeah, I was right. Your comments strip out img tags. Okay, so you can just go to the post and steal it from there.
