I am sitting down on the couch with Nick. We're watching Hell's Kitchen. He made us some steaks, a few hours ago and after we ate, we just started watching this. I looked at Nick and saw him taking his shirt off. I saw his abs-a six pack-across his core.
I looked away, afraid he might see me. "Sorry, Ells. I just took it off because it's hot in here. If you're not comfortable, I can put it back on," Nick says, looking at me with a sympathetic look. "No, no,"
"You're fine, really," I say, smiling. A few hours earlier, Dad called to check up on us. We told him what happened. We told him everything was going according to plan. He told us that he would tell the Director the news. He also told us that he would call back tomorrow to see how the "work event" turned out.
