"Hey Sara, dad, come on in." Adam said as he opened the door and seeing that they were both nervous but seemed to be on speaking terms. He breathed a sigh of relief. "Ahh, Sara this is Rex, Rex Sara." Adam quickly introduced them as he pored both Gil and Sara some wine.
Sara shook Rex's hand and smiled. "I've heard a lot about you."
"Like whys." He replied and then turned to Gil. "Hello Dr. G how are you?"
"Not bad. How is work?"
"Meh, it's okay, I'm still getting used to everything and the clients are crazy, but it's all good. Come through." He said leading them both down the hallway to the kitchen/living room. "Sit down, I'll just help Adam." And with that he left, leaving Gil and Sara trying to not look as uncomfortable as they felt.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Wow, I see what you mean, talk about sexual tension." Rex whispered to Adam once he got to the kitchen.
Adam chuckled. "Now you know what I was talking about. Can you toss this?" he asked pouting to the salad on the bench.
"Sure. So, what is the plan of action? Let nature run its course or intervene?"
"I think we should leave them as they are…for tonight anyway, they seemed a little nervous."
"Sure, do you want me to take these out?"
"That would be great." Adam said as he gathered the plates and pecked Rex on the cheek.

After Rex had left for the kitchen and away from the sexual tension, Gil sat himself on the couch, discreetly diverting his gaze from were ever Sara was looking. After a few minutes Sara finally decided to break the silence.
"What does Rex do?"
"Ohh, he's a psychologist. He is getting his PHD at the moment."
"Really? I always wanted to do Psychology. You know, the whole 'beach girl with bad background studies psychology and uses it on her self' cliché." Sara mused starring strait at Gil. Gil looked at her surprised and after a minute raised an eyebrow.
"Why didn't you?" he asked trying not to sound too worried about the answer.
Sara just smiled. "Someone convinced me other wise."
