*This story is dedicated to my crazy outspoken friend L.A.W. (No my friend's name isn't actually Lisa Ann but yes, she's always been outspoken about a certain subject. I eventually learned how to not blush! I thought a character based on her would be quite fun to write.)

Chapter 1

Caitlin quickly picked up around the office and went in the back to change. She came out wearing a short denim skirt and a semi see through blouse.

"Why are you wearing that?" asked String. "I think I'd wear a different top."

Caitlin smiled. "I told you I'm meeting Lisa Ann at Road's County Bar tonight," she said. "It's our annual girl's night out."

String frowned. "Why do you need to go out to a bar?" he asked. "You're taken."

"We're just going dancing," she replied. "Why, don't you trust me?"

String grabbed her and kissed her passionately. "Of course I do," he said. "It's the other guys that I don't trust."

"Well, they can hit on Lisa Ann then," she said. "Don't worry, I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself. I was going out there long before you and I got together. Anyway, I haven't seen her in almost a year and I promised I'd go."

String sighed. "Well, how come I've never met her?" he asked. "You've talked about her for years now but she's never come around."

Caitlin smiled. "Oh, I don't know," she replied. "We just always met out or she would come to my place. I never thought to bring her here."

"Are you ashamed of us?" he asked jokingly.

Caitlin laughed. "No, but Lisa is kind of different than me," she replied. "I guess you could say we're opposites. That's what I like so much about her though."

"How's she different?" he asked.

"It's kinda hard to explain." Caitlin replied. "She's very outspoken."

String chuckled. "Uh, and you're not?" he asked.

"Well, it's what she's outspoken about that makes us different," she said. "You'll have to meet her to understand."

"Then have her meet you here," said String. "I'd like to meet her before you two go out tonight."

"Okay, okay," she conceded. "I'll call her right now."

Saint John noticed Caitlin's outfit as she walked to the back office to make her phone call. He whistled at her and smiled.

"See," complained String. "Do you really have to wear that?"

"Yes," she yelled back as she closed the office door to make her call.

Thirty minutes later Caitlin ran out to meet Lisa Ann as she pulled up to Santini Air.

"Thanks for meeting me here," said Caitlin. "String really wanted to meet you."

Caitlin pointed String out as the two watched him pick up some tools and put them away.

"Damn," said Lisa Ann. "Where the hell have you been hiding him all this time? You didn't tell me that he was that good looking. I'd sleep with that in a heartbeat."

Caitlin blushed. "Yeah, he is pretty handsome, isn't he?"

The girls were laughing when String came up to greet them.

"What's so funny?" he asked.

"Oh, we were just talking about how hot you were," admitted Lisa Ann. "Now I know why Caitlin's been keeping you from me."

String smiled at her. "It's nice to finally meet you," he said while trying not to blush.

"Well, I guess we should be going now," said Caitlin as she tried to usher
Lisa Ann to the car."

"Wait, what's the hurry?" asked Lisa Ann. "Didn't you say this one has a brother?"

String laughed. "Yeah, he's in the back office if you'd like to meet him."

"Maybe some other time," said Caitlin. "Come on, you know how hard it is to get a parking space if we get there too late."

"Okay, I'm coming," said Lisa Ann as she got back into her car.

Before pulling off she opened the window and yelled out to String. "Don't worry," she said. "I'll have her tipsy and ready to go for ya when she gets home tonight."

"Lisa!" yelled Caitlin as they drove off.

String laughed. "Okay, I see what Caitlin means," he thought. "She and Caitlin are definitely total opposites."

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

As they drove the bar the ladies talked briefly about what they've been up to since the last time they got together.

"I actually got married six months ago," said Lisa Ann.

"What?" Caitlin asked. "Who is he?"

"You remember that cowboy I left with the last time we went out here?" she asked.

"You married him?" asked Caitlin.

"No, his brother," she replied. "He and I didn't have chemistry so he introduced me to Mike that night and we just kind of clicked."

"And he doesn't mind you going out to the bars?" Caitlin asked.

"No, he trusts me," she replied. "Besides, I'm sorry to say that tonight is partly a work night."

"Work night?" asked Caitlin. "What do you mean?"

"My husband and I have our own detective agency," she continued. "Tonight I'm out trying to catch a cheating husband. But don't worry we'll get in some dancing and partying too."

"That's good," said Caitlin. "I haven't been out in quite awhile."

"Well, hell," replied Lisa Ann. "I wouldn't go anywhere with a man like that at home either. I'd never want to get out of bed."
