It was a nice warm fall day. I had just woken up, actually a little earlier than normal it was barely 11:00 AM.

I had nothing planned for the day, no runs, no errands, just a nice quiet day.

Ring

Ring

Great the phone is ringing, maybe a job? Although it was nice to have a quiet day, I had not been getting many runs lately, and since Quen was back with the girls, I wasn't needed as much at Trent's.

I've still been going over to Trent's a lot actually, I loved spending time with the girls, Quen, and I will admit to no one, I enjoyed my time with Trent as well.

We never talked about that night in his spelling hut, and that kind of bothered me, but I know someday he will end up marrying the ice queen, so there is not much to talk about.

Ring

Oh the turn take it, I was day dreaming again and the phone is still ringing.

I heard the sound of pixy wings. "Rache your up? Why didn't you get the phone?"

"I was on my way." I said trying not to meet Jenks eyes, he knew me too well, and would probably guess what the problem was.

"Tink's dildo Rache, haven't you had your coffee yet?"

As he flies over near my head. "Anyways it's Trent, and he wants to talk with you..." Jenks said with a grin.

"Stop it Jenks."

"What? You guys are like middle school kids making googly eyes at each other when they think the other isn't looking. It's sickening really. And guess what everyone else can see the googly eyes."

I grabbed the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Rachel. Sorry to bother you. I have a favor, if you have some free time today?"

"What is it now Trent."

"I have a meeting this afternoon that Quen was supposed to accompany me on, but Quen will not be able to go. Quen asked for me to check if you are available."

"This afternoon, a little short notice. What kind of meeting?" I asked.

"Just a business meeting, you can wait outside, in the car, or something if you want. Quen just doesn't want me traveling alone and feels you are better protection than Jonathan."

"Traveling alone, why where is this meeting?"

"About an hour and a half from Lexington, KY." Trent said quickly

"What with traffic that would be what three four hours?" I said frustrated. Why since this would pay and I have nothing better to do I really don't know why I was complaining.

"Yes, and my meeting is for 6:00 PM so we need to leave in the next two hours or so to be safe." Trent said as if I already said I will help him.

"Trent, I didn't agree to go with you yet."

"No but you will." I could hear the humor in his voice, which irritated me even more.

"Sorry, but I have things I need to do this afternoon." I lied.

"Jenks said your calendar was free." Trent countered.

"Yeah of runs, but I had errands I needed to take care of today."

"Rachel, look Quen wouldn't have asked, but Ray is not feeling well, so he does not want to just leave her with the nanny all day and night with both of us gone. The nanny is going to take care of Lucy, while Quen takes care of Ray, he also would like to keep Lucy from getting the bug. Please help us out."

Great, he hit all three reasons he knew I would say yes. I loved the girls more than anything, I had trouble telling Quen no when he needed my help, and he said please.

"Damn it Kalamack. How long is this meeting?" I asked.

"Should only take an hour or two, so we should be back well before midnight."

"Fine."

"Good I will pick you up, I will also bring you something suitable to wear."

"Oh no, if I'm working as security, then I dress myself." I argued.

"No Rachel, this is a business meeting, I need you to dress the part. I will bring something for you to wear."

Whatever. "Fine."

"I will be there by 1:00."

I look at the clock, just under two hours.

"Fine, I will get ready."

As we hung up Jenks came back. "So what does the cookie maker need you for now?"

"He has a meeting that he needs to drive to and Quen can't go, Ray isn't feeling well."

"Yeah right, Elves hardly ever get sick. Haha, you are such a sucker." Jenks laughs.

"Either way, I will at least get a paycheck, now I have to go get ready."

I was finishing getting ready, and I heard some talking coming from the kitchen.I glance at he clock and it is only 12:50.

I decided on a pair of comfy, business casual black pants, a simple button down top and my leather blazer. And of course my boots.

Jenks kids had helped me put my hair in a simple, but nice braid. Not sure if it will last the car ride, but we will have to see.

I made Trent wait until almost exactly 1:00, then I walked out of my room.

"It's about time." Trent said eyeing my outfit. "Actually not too bad, but I brought this for you to wear."

I took the garment bag and opened it. It was a really nice skirt suit, but not something suitable for security.

"Trent, if I am security then what I have on is fine, Quen wears black pants and jacket all the time, and your fine with that."

Trent lets out a sigh. "Rachel, I prefer to not make it obvious that I need security with me at all times, can't you just humor me and put the suit on."

I grabbed the bag. "If we have time when we get there maybe I will change. I am not driving all that way wearing an uncomfortable suit." And I walked out of the room.

"Bye Jenks, see you later." I said waving my hand as I walked towards the door.

Trent insisted on driving, even after I pointed out it was after his nap time. It was quiet for awhile, so I had to try and make conversation.

"So Ray isn't feeling well?"

"No. It is really just the sniffles, but you know Quen. You haven't been over yet this week." Trent said giving me a quick glance.

"I guess not, but we haven't made any plans." I said playing with the heater vents.

"Since when do you need an invite?" Trent said glancing at me again with a grin.

I just shrugged my shoulders. Things seemed different with Trent and I since Quen got back, not as relaxed. It was hard to explain.

"Well they will be going back to Seattle in another couple weeks, so please spend as much time with them as you like." Trent paused, and I looked at him, I could see he had something on his mind. "You can stay at the compound for a few days if you like."

"I don't know if that is a good idea." I said thinking why would I want to torture myself by sleeping where, in Ellasbeth's old room.

"Why not?" this time he didn't even look at me.

"You know how people talk, I just don't think it would be good for me to stay at your place?"

"Rachel, you are my daughters godmother, there is no reason you should not be welcome to stay at my place."

I left it alone, I wanted to change the subject.

"So what is this business meeting for?" I said looking through my purse for something, anything to occupy myself.

"Nothing really just a possible new investor. What are you looking for?" Trent said glancing at me again.

"Nothing."

"Behind my seat there is a small cooler, Maggie packed some sandwiches, snacks and drinks if you are hungry."

"God bless Maggie." I smiled.

"There is also a thermos of coffee and one of tea."

I unbuckled myself turning in my seat, leaning back looking through the stuff in the cooler. I could feel my side brush against Trent's arm. I could slightly feel the heat of his body through our shirts. We had both opted to remove our jackets since it was a nice day. I couldn't help but shiver from the feeling.

"Rachel I am trying to drive." Trent said with frustration.

I glance over my shoulder at him. "So drive, don't worry about what I'm doing."

I could see him glancing down my body and couldn't help the heat that rose to my face as I blushed.

I quickly grabbed an apple and the thermos of coffee. "Do you want anything?"

"Not right now, thank you."

I poured my coffee.

"Be careful not to spill that all over my car."

"Hmmph, and I thought you had improved since our last road trip. What's wrong with you today?" I asked, carefully putting the cover back on the coffee.

"Nothing."

"Come on this is a long ride, what's your problem?" I asked with a smile.

He didn't answer me.

After we drove awhile longer I said. "Pull over at the next stop, let me use the bathroom and then I will drive, you eat take a little nap, you look tired."

"Fine."

We stopped for a few minutes and then I got into the drivers seat. Trent reclined his seat and closed his eyes. I couldn't help but sneak a peek. He looked good in his dress pants and button shirt. He had the top two buttons undone, to give him a relaxed look. His tie and jacket were sitting in the back. He had a peaceful look on his face.

"Morgan watch the road." Trent said and cracked an eye open.

"What, I was just trying to figure out if you were sleeping?" I know my face was red from getting caught checking him out. I just couldn't help it.

"No I'm not sleeping, just resting my eyes."

We had stopped again later because Trent wanted to drive some more, now we were sitting in traffic and had only 30 more minutes until we were to meet the new potential investor.

"Rachel, I told you to change, but no you just couldn't listen to me, now you will not have time to change."

"So, there is nothing wrong with what I'm wearing."

"Trent looked around, look your top is fine you can throw the suite jacket over it, but get in the back seat and change into the skirt. Everything you need is there, no one will see."

"Are you out of your mind? I am not climbing into your back seat and taking my pants off!"

"Rachel no one will see you, no one will know."

"Hmm where have I heard that before? No one will know. No I am not changing."

"I told Quen this wasn't a good idea." Trent said and let out a sigh.

"Oh fine." I climbed into the back seat. Got the suite out that I was to wear.

"You could of brought a bigger car for the trip." I said trying to discreetly get my pants down while keeping my underwear up and to flashing everyone.

"Keep you eyes on the road!" I yelled as I saw Trent glance in his rearview mirror.

"I was only looking at the traffic behind me in the mirror, I can't see anything but your head, relax."

"Hold on and cover yourself up, there is a truck coming up on the right, he will be able to see into the window."

So I sat waiting with the skirt drapped over my lap. Great, what was I thinking letting Trent talk me into changing in his car.

"Okay you should be good now." Trent said as he glanced over his shoulder.

I had just moved the skirt to put it on so he got a nice flash of my panties. So I picked up my boot and thew it at him "Turn around!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize you were uncovered, and stop throwing stuff I'm driving."

"We are sitting in traffic inching along, I would hardly call that driving. Turn around again and I'm going hit you with a charm." I yelled at him.

"There are shoes back there too." Trent said looking in the mirror again.

"What you mean these. My god you wanted me to dress in a business suit, but you bring me hooker shoes?"

"Rachel they only have a couple inch heal."

Yeah, because he wouldn't want me taller than he is, I thought to myself.

"I can only find one shoe." I say as I glance around the back seat and floor.

"They are both back there." Trent glanced over his shoulder again. This time at least I was dressed.

I look under the back of the driver seat, then I kneeled down on the floor to look under the back of the passenger seat.

"Aha found it." It was stuffed way under the seat. I grabbed the shoe pulling it out. While still on the floor of the car I hear a beep beep and look over and see Trent just watching me. Crap on toast, I just realized I was on my hands and knees, ass in the air with my skirt hiked up a lot when I was in search of the shoe. I'm sure he got a nice view.

"Trent watch the road." I yelled.

Now how do I manage to get in the front seat with a skirt on.

"I guess I will sit back here until we get there."

"I need the directions in the glove box. I would get them myself, but traffic is moving now."

"Crap on toast Trent, I'm in a skirt I can't easily just climb back into the front seat."

Trent tried reaching over opening the glove box to fish them out while still driving.

"Oh forget it, I'll get back in front."

I pull the skirt up a lot and stick one leg then the other over the middle showing a lot of leg, and climb into my seat in the front.

"See easy." Trent said with a grin.

I pull the directions out and we navigate the rest of the way. We just made it on time.
