I just want to thank everyone for the great reviews.  I know you would like longer chapters, but I just can't get the flow going yet to combine them.  I'll see what I can do.  Thanks for reading!

Reviews are much appreciated and constructive criticism is accepted.

The characters belong to Janet Evanovich.  I am making no money from this.  

THIS IS A BABE FIC.

Chapter 6

Dear Carlos,

Well, things have been slow around here.  Sally and Lula are going to be performing at the Knights of Columbus Halloween Bash next week.  Connie, Mary Lou and I are looking forward to the costume contest.  Guess who I'm going as!  I've invited the Merry Men to join us.  Lester, Bobby and of course Tank are going to be there.  None of them will tell me how they are going to dress yet.  Lester insists he will be walking away with the prize for best costume.  I'm hoping to win that myself.  It's an all expense paid trip to Atlantis in the Bahamas.  Boy, what I wouldn't give to win that contest.  I'd really like to just relax on a beach and soak up some sun this winter.

I hope all is going well with your mission.  Tank says he still has not heard from you but that it's not unusual for him not to hear from you yet.  I'm going to believe him, I have to.  To think anything else would be too hard.

Take care of yourself and come home soon.

Love, Babe

Steph's POV

Work had been slow and money was getting tight.  She'd had to mooch dinner from her parents a few times this week.  If things didn't pick up soon, she didn't know how she was going to pay her rent.  She may just have to do what she did when she'd lost her job at E.E. Martin.  Looking around her apartment, she started to catalog what she could do without first.  Hoping it wouldn't come to that, she hit play on her remote and watched as Ghostbusters started on her TV.
