The present
Paige leaned back in her chair, taking a few moments to do her breathing
exercises while holding an amethyst worry stone in her hand and rubbing it
with the pad of her thumb. Usually the combination of the crystal and
focused breathing helped to relieve her stress, but today they weren’t
relieving a damn thing.

Deep breath in, deep breath out.
Rub, rub, rub.
It wasn’t working. And she needed it to work because in less than an hour
she was meeting a man for a drink.
For the average person, this wouldn’t be a big deal, but Paige wasn’t the
average person and it was a big deal. Putting herself on the market again
had taken some work and tonight she was going to see if it had paid off. She
was both excited and scared shitless, a combination that had plagued her all
day.
Deep breath in, deep breath out.
Rub, rub, rub.
It still wasn’t working.
“It’s just a freaking drink,” Paige whispered, just as her office assistant,
Andrea, appeared in the doorway. Today, her resemblance to Edna Mode
from The Incredibles—albeit the hot version, with her dark hair cut in a
choppy, chin-length bob and her eyes framed with black, cat eye glasses—
was even more pronounced because of the blue shift dress she was wearing.
Hoping she hadn’t been overheard talking to herself, or seen using her
worry stone (some people could be judgmental), Paige shoved the stone in
her drawer and quickly went on the offensive. “What are you still doing
here? You should have left fifteen minutes ago.”
“I need the completed contract for the Adler wedding,” Andrea said.
“Remember? The one I asked you for this morning?”
“Adler wedding.” Paige blinked, shifting her focus back to work with
difficulty. “Surely I gave that to you already,” she murmured, hoping it was
true but figuring it probably wasn’t. Andrea was many things (slightly odd
and quirky were at the top of the list), but she was also ruthlessly efficient
and organized. Not to mention, she probably hadn’t been distracted all day
with thoughts of a drink after work.
“If you had, I wouldn’t need it. ‘And don’t call me Shirley’.”
Paige inwardly groaned, having inadvertently given Andrea the ‘Shirley’
line from Airplane! on a silver platter. She had a penchant for quoting lines
from movies and usually Paige struggled to produce responses of her own
in a timely manner. However, this time she actually came up with an
appropriate line from The Sandlot at the exact moment she needed it and
lobbed it back at her assistant.
“‘You’re killing me, Smalls’,” Paige said. “I’m sure I gave it to you.”
Andrea frowned for a long moment, then slowly removed her glasses.
Without saying a word, she grabbed a tissue from the box on Paige’s desk
and then proceeded to painstakingly clean first one lens and then the other,
as if it were of the utmost importance that they be spotless before putting
them back on. Only then did Andrea turn her attention back to Paige. “How
sure?”
