Leave with Chris

She finds the server and finds out that she had no tab and that others had been buying drinks for her. She says her goodbyes and rushes for the door. Chris catches up with her. “Let me walk you to the car, it has gotten dark out there.”

“It is OK. I’m a big girl.”

“Yes, you are, but you have been drinking and there is safety in numbers.” Without waiting for a response, he wraps an arm around her waist. “Where did you park?”

Sandra feels herself flush at the feeling of HIS arm around her, touching her. “I…I’m around back. The lot was full when I got here.” The thought of the pic he sent earlier in the day comes back to her mind and she hears an involuntary whimper come from her throat. She didn’t think that she needed his support walking back to her car, but she was more than willing to accept it.
