Angela
Stavo leaned over Angela, looking over her shoulder. He wasn't exactly breathing on her, but his close proximity made it difficult to concentrate. She looked up at him and he smiled.
"What are you smiling at?" She asked.
"Isn't it obvious? How can I not smile, when I'm looking at someone as beautiful as you."
Blushing, she took off her glasses. "Well..." She said, touching his arm. She could feel his muscles and lingered there. Then they both dropped their hesitations and reached for one another-
Ring!
Angela woke up, her heart pounding, looking around.
Ring!
She reached for the phone, squinting, and missed. Reaching for it a second time, she wiped a spot of drool off the corner of her mouth and answered the phone.
"Hello? Who is this? Really? I haven't spoken to you in ages! Sure, I can do that. What time did you want to meet up?" Angela searched for a notepad and wrote down a time and date. "Got it. I'll see you then."
Hanging up the phone, the blast from her past woke her up fully. She must have fallen asleep, waiting on the results for the sample Stavo brought in. Remembering her dream, she sort of wished she could go back to sleep.
"Get it together girl." She said to herself, straightening up. Grabbing her report, she went back to work.
