Lauren heard a car coming up the drive, so she ran and hid in the barn. Jack got out of his car and walked over to the pasture where the big black horse he had seen earlier stood.
"Lauren!" He called out to her, but his voice was lost in the pouring rain and booming thunder. When he couldn't find her, he hung his head and made his way back home.
Once he was gone, Lauren came out of the barn and walked up to the office. She picked up the phone and dialed a number she'd never thought she'd ever dial.
"Hello, Lawrence speaking." Larry answered the phone in his usual sly voice.
"Larry, it's Lauren. Listen, I need you to come pick me up at the farm"
"Something wrong"
"I'll tell you about it when you get here, just hurry up, and whatever you do, don't tell Jack or Janet"
"You got it Babe, be there in a few"
Lauren hung up the phone and leaned against the wall. "What have I done!" She thought to herself. She ran down the driveway to wait for Larry.

Jack opened the door to 201 and went straight for the bathroom to dry off. He was drenched from head to toe with rain. He grabbed a towel and wrapped up on the couch, trying to warm up.
Janet came out from her bedroom, wearing her blue silk nightie. "Jack! What happened!" She exclaimed as she saw him shivering on the couch.
"I went out to look for Lauren, but I didn't find her." He answered grimly. She sat down next to him on the couch and ran her fingers through his hair.
-
Larry's red Firebird pulled up in the driveway and Lauren jumped inside. She was dripping wet from the rain, but Larry had a towel ready for her. She wrapped herself up and leaned back in the seat. "Larry, it's a long story, but I need to stay with you for a few days." She finally blurted out.
"Of course Princess." He answered with a smile, putting his hand on her knee. She jumped at his touch. She was beginning to wonder what she had gotten herself into. Larry opened the door for her and led her inside his apartment. He disappeared into his bedroom and reappeared a few minutes later with a t-shirt and a pair of shorts for her to change into. "Thanks." She whispered as she went into the bathroom to change. When she came back out, he was sitting on the couch wearing nothing but his boxer shorts and undershirt. She gulped, wondering what he was planning to do. He grinned at her and patted the spot next to him on the couch.
-
Jack looked into Janet's soft brown eyes. She had always been such a good friend to him. Janet smiled back at him. She moved closer, her face inches from his. When he didn't move away, she leaned in and kissed him, full on the lips. -
Lauren sat down next to Larry, still unsure of what was going on. Larry leaned her back gently and looked deep into her eyes before planting a romantic kiss on her lips.
