Heres a bit for now I'm not happy with the other part yet so I'll post that when I've finished it


"Night Ryan"

"Oh yeah good night Allen", Ryan frowns at the empty doorway….damn Allen and his stupid design….scratch that damn Caleb.

Frustrated he tosses his pen down….how the he! was he supposed to get round this wall that had formed in front of him.

He glances down at his watch , the hands tell him its 7.30, he sighs and stands up stretching. A very recognisable figure slips into his officeand quickly closes the door behind leaning against it.

He smiles, his thoughts of work filtering away. "Hey you had a sudden burst of courage or something?"

Marissa flicks her hair back and opens the door peaking out for a second and then she shuts it again.

"Haha, no I checked in advance…I'm no amatuer sooo from now on you can call me Juliette Brown"

He laughs "oh so you're the Ms Brown that rang and asked for an emergency appointment for 7.15pm….I must say I was not impressed when the secretary threw this at me" he waves around a memo note

Marissa smiles and hobbles towards him. Ryan frowns looking her up and down

"What'd you do to your leg?"

"…ankle….apparently it takes a while getting used to wearing high heels again…and you know running not such a good idea"

"Do I want to know the rest?"

"Ha I have no doubt that you would enjoy the tale of my humiliating fall down the gutter…..but I don't think I want to share"

He laughs "The gutter?"

"Hmmpff well if you ever want to become a drag queen don't expect to be getting any help from me", she sticks her tongue out at him

He puts his hands in his pockets and looks at her again "Are you going somewhere cos…." he waves at her indicating to her clothes

"Seth didn't tell you?", she looks confused and sits down putting her long legs on his desk

His thoughts wander for a moment as he continures gazing at her legs "Ahh…erm…no"

She rubs her ankle looking confused " Seth rang me at lunch time and invited me to have dinner with him and Summer. He said he'd mentioned it to you…..and that you were busy so you'd have to go straight from work"

Ryan rubs his head, knowing what Seth was up too "Hmm yeah guess he forgot to mention it" the sarcasm goes unnoticed to Marissa whose oblivious to Seths ulterior motives

"I'll give him a ring", before Ryan can object Marissa has got out her phone and is ringing him….actually it would be interesting to see how Seth would get out of this one

"Hey Seth…did you forget about dinner or whats happening?", Ryan wishes he could hear the other end of the conversation

"Ohh umm ok….well another time then maybe….say hi to Summer for me…..ok bye", she closes her phone and looks at him confused.

"He said that dinner was supposed to be for tomorrow night…but you know I could of sworn he said tonight…he sounded really weird, is everything alright with him?"

Ryan turns around pretending to look out the window, unable to contain his smile any longer. "Hes fine, you know Seth is he ever normal?"

"True, have you got a phone book?", he tuns back round to face her

"What you want to order a hit man or something?"

Marissa rolls her eyes at him "No I need to cancel the reservation at the restaurant….Seth made me book it because he said he had to rush off to do a job"

"Oh I bet he did", Ryan mutters, hes torn between a perfect opportunity and not wanting to do something Seth has arranged….. "Look why don't we just go, then you wont have to cancel…we'll stop by home so I can get changed and then"

"The reservations for 8", Marissa looks at him apologetically .

"He! do you think this will pass dress requirement", he questions gesturing at his clothes.

"Its fine, but its up to you, if you don't feel like it then we can just go with Seth and Summer tomorrow"

He moves to the door and motions at her "Well if its good enough for you then come on"

She flashes a smile at him every inch of her seeming to light up.

"Great lets go then"
