Part 1: The Man in the
Window
Amanda was in her pj's (comfy, light blue, drawstring
sweatpants with no cuff at the bottom and a Georgetown short sleeve t-shirt
with the sleeves rolled up) and her hair was down with cute curls resting on
her shoulders, she was about to go brush her teeth in the bathroom, the only
light in the room was coming from her nightstand lamp. It was raining out and
she was thinking about Lee, 'I hope Lee is home, safe and warm in his bed' then
she started to think about what it would be like if Lee was with her right now
'wait a minute, why am I thinking like that, there is nothing between me and
Lee, but I do love those eyes and the way he grins makes me go weak in the
knees, and when he holds my hand…stop that, Lee is just my friend nothing else'
she went to go brush her teeth but right before she touched foot in the
bathroom there was a tap on her window, she smiled because she new exactly who
it was.
Amanda ran over to the window to open it, there she
found Lee soaked from the rain. Amanda thought for a second 'he always looks so
sexy when he's all wet'
"Lee! What are you doing here? Why are you all wet?
I know it's raining out, but you are soaked from head to toe like you've been
out there for an hour."
Lee rolled his eyes, he should of known that Amanda would
bombard him with questions and start rambling, but he loved that about her, it
made her seem so innocent. "I'll explain in a minute, but can I come in
first?"
Amanda couldn't help but smile, "Oh sorry! You must
be freezing. Come in."
Lee stepped in through the window and stood there as
water dripped all over the floor.
"Stay there I'll go get a towel."
Lee thought to himself sarcastically, 'Where am I gonna
go?'
Amanda came back with a big towel and handed it to Lee.
He started to rub the towel through his hair as Amanda shut the window.
Just as Amanda stood up from closing the window there
was a knock on the door and it started
to open "Amanda darling, have you seen my slippers? My feet were a bit
cold and I couldn't find them." It was her mother. Lee dashed down by the
other side of the bed just in time.
"No mother, I haven't seen them" Dotty could
tell by her daughter's voice that she was distracted by something. "Is
there something wrong dear?"
"No mother I'm fine, really I'm fine."
She wasn't very convincing and Dotty thought she could
see a big wet spot by the window, but decided not to question because she got
the impression that she wasn't welcome in the room because Amanda kept inching
towards the doorway.
Even though she thought it was strange, Dotty decided
she would just question her about it in the morning, the boys were both
sleeping over at friend's houses and it would be just the two of them.
"All right, I will just go to bed then"
"Okay, good night, see you in the morning,"
She shut the door.
"That was close," Amanda could tell he was
shivering, "You need to get out of those wet clothes, how about I go
downstairs and start some coffee, while you take those off, that way I can wash
and dry them while we talk about what happened."
"What I am I going to wear in the meantime?"
It was the first question that popped into his head.
"Ummm, right" she thought for a moment.
(spreading out her words as she spoke) "I don't really have anything, but
I suppose you could wear my robe" Amanda wasn't so crazy about the idea
but it was all she could think of, 'I wonder what Lee is going to think?'
"Aahhh..." Lee started to protest, but then he
thought it might not be so bad to have her scent on him and to wear her
clothing, it would be like her wearing one of his shirts. Lee realized that he
was getting lost in thought and that Amanda was standing there staring at him
waiting for an answer, he got nervous and blurted out "Okay that will be
fine."
Amanda was a bit startled, that wasn't the answer she
was expecting but nevertheless went to get the robe.
'How does she do that' thought Lee 'I'm a trained agent,
nothing is supposed to make me nervous or feel the way she makes me feel, when
I'm with her all I want to do is hold and protect her 'till the end of time,
nobody else makes me feel like that'
Amanda came back out of the bathroom with her robe to
find Lee sitting on her bed lost in thought. "Earth to Lee, are you
there?" Lee jumped, but was settled as soon as he saw Amanda's warm face.
"I'm here"
She gave Lee the robe, "Okay then, I'll go start
the coffee, just be careful when you come down the stairs I'm not sure if
mother is completely asleep." She started to leave.
"Amanda..."
"Yeah?"
"Thanks"
"You're welcome" She smiled and left.
TBC soon…
