Sorry it took so long to update. Procrastination on my part, if you like Bones I did add a one shot in that area, weekend filled with snow machining, dance class, potty training and -30 degrees. That's right people 30 below zero. I still don't own anything. Oh and of course, thank you to everyone who has reviewed and continues to follow the story.

Ellie looked at the clock, 7:56 flashed back at her. Why was her shower running this early? Wait a minute, why was her shower running at all? She rolled out of bed and headed for the bathroom to investigate. She opened the door to the shock of her life. There in her shower was one very wet, very soapy, very taunt Will Darcy. Mother of pearl! The water beaded down his hard body, drawing her eyes over toned shoulders and sculpted back to the sexiest butt she had ever seen. Holy statue of David! If only he would turn around so she could get another perspective. Wait a minute, if he turned around… Nuts, she had to get out of there. She was almost out the door when a bigger shock struck.

He had just finished scrubbing in some shampoo, when he began to sing.

I kissed a girl and I liked it,
the taste of her cherry chapstick.
I kissed a girl just to try it,
I hope my friends don't mind it.
It felt so wrong,
it felt so right.
Don't mean I'm in love tonight.
I kissed a girl and I liked it (I liked it).

Oh dear lord. She had no idea how to react. This was… she was speechless. She decided to back out of the bathroom before he caught sight of her. With one more glace at his fantastic ass she disappeared back to her room.

She tried to return to sleep for a few minute before she realized visions of a certain soft lipped gentleman would only cause daydreams. What to do? It was too early for breakfast. Maybe she should check on Jane. No, obviously, after running into Charlie last night, she didn't want to interrupt anything. She paced her room in thought. As she walked by the window, she caught sight of the sun pouring over the mountains. A walk could clear her mind. She put her ipod on shuffle, grabbed a water bottle from the kitchen, and headed out.

She had walked for about a hour just wandering the direct grounds peaking down this trail and that. She listened to one song or another before deciding that the sounds of nature were most likely to calm her frayed nerves. There was nothing that could hold her attention for long until she heard voices down the trail she had taken with Will previously.

"William I couldn't be happier for you. Most people would be worried about introducing Lizzy's mother to your aunt but not you. You are not even worried about the influence her colorful younger sisters would have over Ana."

"It is simply such an unlikely event that her family and mine would ever come in contact that it is ridiculous to speculate. Caroline, she has a nice smile; she is not Helen of Troy. Let us leave it at that and return to the house for breakfast." Will finished, seemingly done with the conversation.

During the entire exchange their voices had been approaching but Ellie was too busy listening to know how close they had come. As she saw they appear in her periphery, she made it to look like she was removing her earbuds. They both appeared shocked to see her. Ellie took the lead.

"Good morning!" she said in forced cheerfulness. "Are you two out to enjoy the day?"

"We have been enjoying the day very much and of course, the company, we always take the most pleasure in each other's company." Caroline returned smugly. Will said nothing.

"I'm sure that you do." Ellie replied. "I have to go talk to Charlie and Jane, please excuse me." Ellie made one of her least composed exits yet. Will stared after her. Caroline's smile grew, finally she had the upper hand for once.

"It's open," Jane called when Ellie knocked on her door. Jane was sitting up in bed with her lap top, proofing photos from the Zoomerang event. Ellie climbed under the covers and snuggled her sister.

"What's wrong?" Jane inquired kindly.

"I am not getting any work done and there is only rabbit food around here. I think I am just going to take the train back in to town." Ellie replied sullenly.

"No," called Charlie, he was leaning on the bathroom doorway. "Stay, we won't bug all day." He promised. "I already sent the chef into a little town up the road for some real food. Stay work all day and then we can have an edible dinner and a movie screening tonight in the home theater."

"I brought Seven Brides for Seven Brothers." Jane gave her a knowing look. Charlie was now sitting on Jane's other side rubbing a shoulder absent-mindedly.

"Look, it's not that I'm not grateful for this weekend away, but you promised me my own wing and between Caroline across the hall and Will sharing my bathroom… this just isn't working." Ellie was trying not to sound like Lydia, but feared she was failing. In her introspection, she missed an 'I told you it wouldn't work' look pass between the couple.

"We could move your stuff to the home office. It isn't as if you have so much stuff to move. It has a bedroom and bathroom. It is a separate building but it is only about 30 yards from the house." Charlie offered.

"I guess we could give it a try." She caved. "What are you two going to do all day?" she asked not wanting to seem totally self-centered.

"We were going to play some tennis, take a swim or maybe go in the hot tub." Charlie supplied. Jane smiled in a relaxed happy manner.

"Ok, well I guess I will move out to the office and get to work, then." Ellie moved to get out of bed. Charlie offered to help her move but she replied she had put him out enough. She gave Jane one more snuggle and Charlie a kiss on the cheek before exiting the bedroom.

"Does your sister often crawl in to bed with you?" Charlie questioned after he was sure Ellie was far enough down the hall.

"Yes, if she is up before me, otherwise I usually go to her room to chat in the morning. Why do you ask?"

"Nothing, I was just surprised, I guess. Never mind that, what I really want to know is what you brought for swim wear?" Charlie gave a roguish look.

"I don't actually know. Ellie packed for me." She explained, while making her way to her overnight bag. She fished around and pulled out an ice blue bikini.

"You know I like your sister more every day, my dear." Charlie commented.

"Good, you can keep me from killing her, then."

Review or the pretty blonde gets it… just kidding but seriously take two minutes to give me a shout.
