"Hey Cath" Catherine came into the breakroom and.
"Erin! Oh my God what are you doing here?" Cath exclaimed "I haven't seen you for ages!"
"A year in fact. I last saw you, when, last June? Yeah it was mum's birthday party actually." She laughed "I thought I'd surprise you"
"Well you have! You look great, how have you been?"
"I've been really great," Erin said, laughing, "I finished my degree, and I've come over here for a break"
"Oh god yeah, have you got any work lined up?"
"No not yet, I think I'll find something when I get back home. I've just come over for three weeks to get some space. I broke up with my boyfriend last week." She pulled a face. "It was unpleasant, so I moved back in with mum and dad and came here"
"Aw honey, you can some stay with me if you like, I have a spare room and I'm sure Lindsey would love to see you"
"Really? That'd be really great, but I wouldn't want to intrude or anything."
"You wouldn't be intruding, you're very welcome to stay as long as you like, as long as you're willing to be my in-house babysitter!"
Erin laughed "Go on then, if you're sure to put up with me for that long!"
"Well where are you staying at the moment, and we can go get your stuff. I've just finished work and have a little time left over before I have to pick Lindsey up."
"OK great, just some hotel. It's on the Strip, you drive me there and I'll show you where it is"

Erin finished unfolding her clothes and putting them into the pine closet in Catherine's spare room. She looked around, shoved her suitcase under the bed, and headed out onto the landing and went downstairs.
"Wow I like your place!"
"Thanks, I made a few improvements since you were last here."
"Erin! Yay you wanna come play with me in the pool?!" Lindsey came running into the kitchen in her swimming costume.
"Hey Linds!" Erin picked Lindsey up and swung her around. They all went outside, where Erin admired the beautiful garden. "Wow you're so lucky living here in Vegas! I would so love to live somewhere hot. England's nice and everything, but you don't often get weather like this."
"Well you could live here. I mean what's stopping you? You could easily get a job, get somewhere to rent, and it's not as if you wouldn't know anyone - you have me!"
Erin smiled at the idea. "Yeah, I guess, but it's just mom and dad, I wouldn't wanna have to be too far away from them."
"I guess so, but you could always talk to them about it. I mean you were away for three years at university, and you could go home at holidays and stuff, or they could come over here."
"Yeah, yeah. Actually I think I will talk to them. They'd be a bit upset at first, but I have to go sometime. I mean, I'm 23, I have to live my own life."
"Yeah go for it. You'd love it here. After all you were born here - you're a Vegas girl, like your mom."
