Now that Harry was back at work and his schedule was filling up, a lot of late nights and working through the weekend, the two of them had decided to set aside at least two nights a week to have a 'date night'. Mostly the two of them shared dinner together and a movie, simple but she felt like they saw little of each other lately that she didn't ( Read more... )

The tip had come in not long ago and Skylar wasn't about to let the opportunity pass her by, even if it took a good pep talk in the mirror and a few shots with Reid before he sent her on her way ( Read more... )

There really was no way that Skylar would possibly put this dinner off any longer, every week making excusing to her mother about that were only half true just so that she didn't have to make the journey all the way out to Ottery.
