"Come in James live a little!" Erin hopped up on the desk behind her.

"But someone could catch us!"

"No one comes back here James. It's all the books about your lot's history"

She fluttered her eyelashes. She knew he would hold out much longer after that.

"Okay but quickly. Be our luck if today was the day Jenny Joyce wanted to research Cromwell"

"She wouldn't need to. She's Cromwell reincarnated"

She grabbed his hand and pulled him towards her. He pushed her hair behind her ear.

It had surprised her. How much she liked him. The wee English fella. Michelle's annoying wee cousin. He was kind, funny, she could actually talk to him about stuff life, family, history, poetry, anything. He was also kind of cute. Especially with that new haircut. And he was a good kisser.

She finally got why Katya had gone straight for him. It had confused her at the time but now she had joined the dots. Really, she hadn't been annoyed at Katya. Well maybe a wee bit but she had been jealous.

Not in a romantic way at the time but as a friend. He had been spending all his time with her. Now...she wanted him to herself. As a boyfriend? James...her boyfriend? He leaned in to kiss her.

Yes, definitely her boyfriend.
