Janet's Pov

Where did I know this woman from? She looked so familiar that it frustrated me. How could I not remember meeting her. She's breathtakingly beautiful.

I was brought out of my musing by the heat from the stove burning my hand.

"Shit," I hissed blowing cool air on my hand.

"That'll just make it worst," April's angelic voice said startling me.

"It's just a small burn. I'll be fine." I muttered.

She laughed shaking her head.

"Come here," She said turning the knobs on the sink.

While inspecting my burning hand I walked over to April. Taking my hand she placed it under the cool water soothing the burning skin.

After a few seconds she turned the water off to inspect my hand further.

I watched her intently while she did this. I don't know why I am so intrigued with this woman.

"You should be fine now. Cool water always helps," April said.

"Thanks," I simply said before going back to the stove.

"Would you like some help," April asked leaning against the counter.

"Oh no! It's already finished. You can go sit at the table. I'll bring you a plate," I replied smiling and turning back to the food on the stove.

I cooked baked fish with shrimp and green beans on the side. After  fixing our food I brought every-thing to the dining room.

We sat and ate in a very disturbing silence that I didn't like. So I spoke up.

"So since you're going to be traveling with me tell me about yourself."

She rubbed the back of her neck smiling nervously before saying, "What would you like to know?"

That was the question. What did I want to know about her?

"Anything," I shrugged.

"Well I'm an only child. I graduat-ed high school at the top of my class. I'm currently majoring in Business Management, and I work part-time at my mother's day spa," She said playing with her fingers.

"Are you nervous," I asked.

"No...no it's just a habit I have. I'm just so used to moving my hands alot it's kind of out of my element.

"Won't be that way for long," I muttered taking a sip of my wine.

"What was that," she asked.

"Hmmm," I mumured.

"What did you say," she repeated.

"I was just thinking out loud." I replied.

She nodded standing, "Well I still have an essay to finish. Do you need any help with the dishes?"

I shook my head no and watched her walk upstairs my eyes never leaving her body.

I hurried back upstairs to finish the rest of my essay. After an hour and thirty minutes I finished my assignment and went to take a shower I stripped out of my pantsuit and tied my hair up in a ponytail.

I turned on the shower until it was warm enough and stepped in letting the warm water soothe my aching muscles. I scrubbed and washed my skin with my watermelon body wash inhaling the wonderful scent.

I then stepped out the shower wrapping a towel around me and walking into my room. I grabbed my baby lotion and lotioned my skin before slipping on my under garments and silk white nightie. Done with everything I turn off the lights and go to bed.
