Perfect Match
* Prelude To A Meeting

Ethan knocked on the door to Fox's office door which was slightly ajar. Ethan could hear his younger half brother talking on the phone. Fox turned and waved the unknown person in. "I'll get back to you in a while Mr.Fontane. Thank you." Fox hung up sliding off his desk without looking up.
"Hello Fox"Ethan said after a minute or two of patient waiting.
"Dear brother. Come to pay me a visit have you?"Fox grinned slightly picking up a couple of folders that needed Theresa's approval.
"No, not exactly. I came to see Theresa, but I remembered needing to talk to you about someone." Ethan closed the door behind him and walked to the middle of the large office. He knew his brother was not going to like where the conversation was going to go.
"Look, Ethan"Fox stopped smiling. "If this is about me and Theresa working together, I asure you there is nothing going on. Pasides I have other intrest I'd like to persue."
"No its not about Theresa. Its about my sister. While I think she can do better than take care of herself, she doesn't need someone like you to bring her back into her own personal hell. She's already taken a year to find herself."
"Honestly brother. Me and Kay are just friends. Nothing to worry about." Fox smirked.
Ethan turned to leave but looked over his shoulder as his hand twisted the knob. "If you hurt her, I will hurt you back." He walked out.
"Ethan you get everything. The wife, the love. And what do I have? Nothing. But it won't always be that way." Fox smirked as he stared after the door.

Charity sat in front of Theresa, watching Miguel's sister with serious intrest. Her and Theresa weren't the best of friends, but she was married to her brother after. Which meant, she could cut her some slack.
"What makes you think your qualified?"Theresa asked as she looked at her sister in law.
"Well"Cahrity's honey voice came out. "I do model for Miguel every once in a while. I just wanted to see if I've got some real potential."
"Well from these photos Miguel took, I'd say you do. Curious to say though. Exactly why do want this job?" Theresa laid the photos on her desk, giving Charity a once over.
"Well, I love my aunt Grace, really I do. But I want me and Miguel to have our own house really soon. I'm just really tired of livng off of my family for four years." Charity swept her lenghty blonde hair back. "Plus Miguel deserves only the best."
"Yes I agree. Although there are a million blond bombshells out there. There is only one that is married to my 'younger' brtoher. So,"she stood up and walked around the desk. Charity rose to. "You have the job. But if you screw up, please note i will not hesitate to fire you."
They shook hands to seal the deal.

Kay walked out of the design department and headed down the stairs to wait for Simone's interview to be over. She clutched her portfolio closely and sighed. She had landed this job, and with only a few more weeks till her last year of college it was great. She was glad that the profession she wanted only required the one year program at Harmony University. Of course it was an expensive year, but hey, with the money she'd be making here she'd pay of the debts within two years. She countinued to walk down the stairs and bumped directly into Fox.
"Hey beautiful"he smiled.
"Fox"she said warningly as she blushed.
"I was coming to get you. Today is that great day I get to meet your friend. So I'm taking you out for lunch."
"No. If Theresa finds out about us, she'll make sure I don't have a job here"Kay looked up into his blue eyes, then looked away.
"Hey, I help run this magazine to, and I say that you and your friend are taking a break. And that is final"he lifted her chin up to him and gently kissed her.
Simone couldn't believe her eyes. She knew Kay had been hiding a gorgous hunk, but she didn't know it was a Crane. "Katherine Bennet! How dare you keep him a secret?"Simone screeched interrupting the two.
Kay was blushing furiously. "Well see me and Fox are really good friends. I just needed a good time to tell you." She explained.
"Really?"Simone wasn't buying it. The two looked a little to close to be friends. "Well maybe if we go to lunch, I might start believing some of it. Plus I got my job, time to celebrate."
"See Kay. I knew she'd love the idea of lunch"Fox smiled at Simone's comment.
"Fine. We can go to lunch. Sometimes I think I'm babysitting kids"Kay sighed under her breath and followed the two down the stairs.

Ethan kissed Theresa smoothly on the lips, then sat down on her desk. "Surprized?"ethan asked his beautiful wife.
"Very"she smiled looking into the eyes of the man she loved more than her life. "So what are you doing here any way?" Theresa turned off her computer monitor to give Ethan her full attention.
"I came to tell you that I'm going away for a little while"he frowned slightly at the thought of being away from her for more than three seconds.
"How come?"Theresa took his hand in hers.
"Allistair. He wants me to accompany him to England n a buisness trip." Ethan chuckled at the idea of the man he once called grandfather. It had been like a bad habit he couldn't quit, but he was now gettin the hang of it.
"When will you be back?"
"Maybe in a week. But I don't leave until early tommorow."
"Then thats great, because I want you home for dinner. Cook is making something great"Theresa smiled. "But ya know how dinner can get cold when were deeply invovled in something." She quirked her eyebrows.
"Guess I'll be home early. But I also stopped by to invite you for lunch,that is if your not busy"Ethan smiled at his wife the seductress.
"Nope. I'm all yours."
The two drove over to the bookcafe where three others were dinning.
