Crystal Clear

Chapter 2 continued

Ways to get Josh to notice me.

1. Throw myself at his feet and beg him to love me.

2. Lose 30lbs and wear a size 0 dress and swing my skinny ass in his face. Hmm. That might work, except I hadn't the will power to go on a diet.

3.Have plastic surgery. Get size 36DD breasts and flaunt them in a daringly low silk top.

4. Get a job at the station and get as close as possible. (nice)

5. Send him an anonymous love letter. Except he might not know it was from me and I'd be right back to where I started.

6. Ask Lucille to steal a copy of his address book and become fast friends with his mother.

7. Save his life and hope he feels enough gratitude to marry me.

Ok. Except for No. 4, none of these plans were going to work. I needed inspiration and the only person who could give it to me was. . . .

'Callie what the fuck did you do to the den?' Ryan bellowed as the door to my room was yanked open and a very furious Ryan stood in the doorway, glaring at me.

Uh oh. Trouble. I quickly saved my work and swivelled to face him, an innocent look on my face.

'don't even think of lying to me Callie, I know you too well for that'. Ryan moved into the room and took off his tie. Sparky gave a little bark of excitement and circled his legs. Ryan stooped and picked up the dog, still managing to look furious with me, while the cause of all this trouble was being cuddled. Life was so not fair.

'You should ask the creature in your arms'. I replied and crossed my arms over my breasts. 'He caused it'

Ryan's eyebrows shot upwards, nearly disappearing into the lock of hair that fell over his temples. 'He sprayed the room and made impossible to enter without a Hazmat suit?'
