Sam came to the back twenty minutes later and got Penelope.

"Thank you." He said to Emily.

"No problem sir." She said. "I don't do anything during the day, so if you ever need me again just let me know."

"Ok." "Do you mind if I shower before I bring you your money?"

"Not at all."

"Come on Penelope."

"Bye Emily." Penelope said.

"Bye Penelope."

Penelope and Sam went back to his locker room.

"Emily's nice." Penelope said. "She let me help her with the make-up." "I got to give her brushes and stuff."

"Good."

"I'm hungry."

"Me to." "Let me take a shower then we'll go get some cheeseburgers."

"Ok."

"Sit on the couch and play your Tablet, don't move, don't open the door for anyone."

"Ok."

"I'll be out in five minutes."

On their way out Penelope and Sam stopped by the make-up table to pay Emily.

"Here you go." Sam said handing her the twenty dollars. "Thank you again."

"It was my pleasure sir."

"Can I have your number to contact you?" "I need someone to watch her tomorrow after we get to Washington."

"I can do that." She gave him her number. "I'm usually up pretty early call anytime sir."

"First off, stop calling me sir." "We should introduce ourselves properly." "Hi, Sam Ratsch."

"I'm Emily DiCaprio."

"It's nice to meet you."

"It's nice to meet you to."

The next morning Penelope and Sam were on a plane Washington. It hadn't taken off yet. Sam was sitting in the middle seat and Penelope was sitting in the window seat.

"Hey you two." Emily said sitting in the sit on the other side of Sam.

"Oh hi." Sam said. "How are you this morning?"

"Good." "You?"

"Can't complain."

"Hi Emily." Penelope said.

"Hi." Emily said.

They'd been in the air for about an hour. Penelope fell asleep.

"Do you like it here so far?" Sam asked Emily.

"Yeah it's fun." "It's a lot less chaotic then my old job."

"What was that?"

"I put make-up on drag queens."

"Let me guess." "Las Vegas?"

"Yeah." "I was born and raised there." "Working in that club is where I met my fiancée." "He's a comic."

"How old is he?"

"Thirty." "His name's Travis."

"How long have you been together?"

"Three years but we just got engaged three weeks ago."

"Congratulations."

"Thank you."
