Brady pulled up to Chloe's house, the jeep stopping with a slight jolt
"home sweet home" Brady spoke quietly looking over at her. Chloe drew a
deep sigh "yeah, home sweet home" she muttered. "What's wrong?" Brady
asked, concern etching his face "nothing really" she sighed "I just get so
bored sitting her all day."
"Do you want to go back to school?" Brady asked. Chloe shook her head "actually, I already finished all the work my teachers sent me for the rest of the year" she answered. "Really?" Brady cocked his head "and what does that mean for you?" he asked. Chloe shrugged "I'm done, finished, finito" she grinned "and I am bored out of my skull."
Brady looked thoughtful for a moment "my dad's secretary quit the other day" he mentioned. "and?" Chloe looked at him curiously "he might offer to give you something to do." Chloe looked at him as if he lost his mind "I have no skills Brady" she reminded him. "You can answer the phone, right?" he glanced at her "and operate a computer and since you're about to graduate, I assume you do know the alpahabet."
"A..B..C..D..H..J, what comes next?" she glanced helplessly at Brady. Brady grinned "alright, Diva" he chuckled "seriously it wouldn't hurt to ask. I'll come get you tomorrow and we'll talk to him." Chloe nodded "Okay" she agreed, "but let me make sure Nancy and Craig are okay with it." Brady nodded "and I'll talk to my dad tonight."
Brady walked her to the door "I'll come get you tomorrow at 8:30" he stopped at the door and turned her into his arms. "Do me favor, Diva" he spoke softly "wear something that wont drive me nuts." Chloe grinned innocently "who me? Drive you nuts, why thank you Brady." Brady closed the distance between her lips and his, briefly dropping a light kiss on her lips. "Goodnight Diva, I'll see you tomorrow."
Brady stood at the door, watching Brady until his jeep was out of sight before entering her house. "Where's Brady?" Craig asked non-chalantly. "He left" she answered "where's Nancy? I need to talk to you both."
Craig looked at her "Is everything, okay?" he asked concerned. "Yeah, everything is great" she agreed "but I need to talk to you guys about something."
"Nancy" Craig called "can you come in here, please? Chloe wants to talk to us." Nancy rushed into the room "What is it? Are you sick again?" she asked flushed and out of breath. "No, I am not sick again" she rolled her eyes. "Don't roll your eyes at me young lady" Nancy rebuked.
"Sorry, but I get so sick of that question" Chloe answered. "What I wanted to talk to you about is what I can do for the summer, and since I already finished my school work.." she trailed off. "What would you do?" Craig asked "and what does Brady have to do with this?"
"Why do you think Brady has anything to do with this?" she asked. "Because my dear Watson" Craig imitated Sherlock Holmes "everything you do and say revolves around a certain Brady Black."
Chloe grinned sheepishly "that might be a little true" she admitted. Nancy snorted "only a little?" she chipped in. "Anyway" Chloe shot them both a look "Brady's dad needs a secretary, and he said I should try to get the job, only if it is for a month or so."
Craig and Nancy exchanged glances "Besides, I've completed all my courses for high school, and I'm so bored here at home." Nancy stared at Craig "what do you think?" she asked him. "According to Colin, her tests have been normal, so I don't see why not, but" he cautioned "if it gets to be too much, you'll have to quit."
Chloe nodded "so that means I can go tomorrow?" she asked hopefully. Nancy and Craig nodded in unison, "sure, why not, it'll look good on your resume'" Craig said. "And you'll get to see Brady everyday" Nancy chipped in. Chloe nodded "Yeah, I know" she grinned. "I've got to call Brady and tell him" Chloe said, running out of the room and up the stairs. "ah to be young and in love" Craig murmured. "Like us" Nancy whispered huskily "yes, definitely, like us" he agreed kissing his wife.
"Do you want to go back to school?" Brady asked. Chloe shook her head "actually, I already finished all the work my teachers sent me for the rest of the year" she answered. "Really?"

Brady walked her to the door "I'll come get you tomorrow at 8:30" he stopped at the door and turned her into his arms. "Do me favor, Diva" he spoke softly "wear something that wont drive me nuts." Chloe grinned innocently "who me? Drive you nuts, why thank you Brady." Brady closed the distance between her lips and his, briefly dropping a light kiss on her lips. "Goodnight Diva, I'll see you tomorrow."
