Nearly there.

Anxiety prickled up the back of his neck and he felt overwhelmed.

Calm the hell down, AJ. It’s all good. She’s excited to see you.

Lisa: Did you make it?

See? She’s excited that you’re coming. Get your anxiety in check before it ruins this trip!

AJ: On the train. Jeremy has already married thirteen Irish women. None of them know that yet, though. He’s bewitched. It’s funny. He has no idea what they’re saying – neither do I, for that matter. But he’s completely entranced.

Lisa: Witchcraft. I told you, us Irish women don’t play fair.

AJ: As long as I’m your only victim, I’m totally cool with that.

Lisa: I like my victims willing.

AJ: You have no idea.

Lisa: Remember to lock the doors this time. Can’t have the child barging in every time we…

AJ grinned coyly.

AJ: Every time we what,exactly, Miss Millar?

Lisa: Why, get naked ofcourse, Mr. Williams. I fully intend to jump your bones and do naughty things to you. And I really am growing weary of being interrupted by the adolescent, third-wheel and his sharp wit.

AJ: What if I tell him to leave the wit at the door?

Lisa: Are you an exhibitionist, Mr. Williams?

AJ about choked on his water.

“What?”

“She just asked if I’m an exhibitionist,” he gasped, trying to cough the water out of his windpipe.

“Nothing wrong with that, if you are,” Jeremy grinned and turned his attention to a passing red-head with fierce blue eyes.

Always a sucker for the stereotypes.

Lisa: Growing concerned now. Hesitation when asked a question like this, is truly worrying, Mr. Williams.

AJ: No!!!!! I’m not an exhibitionist.

Lisa: Thank god. I’m nervous enough about you seeing me naked again after all this time. I couldn’t imagine a broader audience. That’s a hard no for me, in case you were wondering.

AJ: Thanks for clarifying, but I think we were good on that one. You know you have no reason to be nervous about me seeing you naked, right? I love every piece of you without condition. Speaking of hard…

Lisa: LOL! Pervert! I know, I know. You say that. I hear that. My brain still says PANIC.

AJ: You’re a beautiful woman, Lisa Millar. You have precisely no reason to be concerned and I’ll be sure to give that brain of yours a talking to when I get there. Soon.

Lisa: Not soon enough.

AJ: We’re pulling away from the station. I can’t wait to see you.

Lisa: I can’t wait to kiss you.
