Ch 43

Filmore had returned to his desk and back to the work that he had been trying to do when Snow had been put on the cot behind him. As he looked at it, he could still picture her lying there. He shook his head, trying to chase the image out of his mind, and thought that he needed to get busy and get this finished. An hour had passed, and Filmore felt like he was making some good progress when there was a tapping on his door.

In a pissed-off voice, Filmore asked, "What is it? I was just starting to get things finished."

Snow said, "Well, if I am a bother, I guess I will go back to tanning on the deck."

Filmore thought that this was perfect. He would see if she had changed her bikini to something different and if she was going to tan again. He would see if she was going to strip or if that was just to make him agree with what she was proposing. Using her body as a distraction. Filmore said, "No. It's no bother; come on in."
