Two days later and Virginia found her an apartment. It wasn't as nice as the one she checked out first but it was nice and was affordable too. She took the day off so she could get the utilities turned on and she needed to go get furniture and things as well. Andrew told her that he would help her move as soon as he got done with the day. She was getting hungry so she went to the Country Cow and ordered lunch for the both of them. She knew that he wasn't going to eat because he was so busy but she knew he would eat if it was brought to him. She didn't know why she was doing it though because they weren't together, but she was doing it anyway.
She drove to his office building and parked. She then got out and went inside. " Hello Virginia." the older lady said as she walked past. " Hey Margret." she said to her. She made her way to Andrew's office and knocked. " Come in." he said. So she opened the door and went inside. She held up the bags. " I figured you would want some lunch." she said as she shut the door behind her. " You didn't have too." he said as he cleared off his desk to make room for the both of them to eat. " I know but I did because I wanted to thank you for helping me the past month." she told him as she took everything out of the bags. " It was my pleasure." he said to her as he took a couple bottles of water out of the fridge and handed her one. " I got the utilities turned on and so tomorrow morning sometime they will be turned on at the apartment." she told him as she took a bite. " Good. Have you got furniture yet?" he asked her.
She took a sip of her water. " Not yet but have been looking." she told him. He looked at her and smiled. " I know of a great furniture store you can go to. The prices are cheap and the furniture is nice." he told her. She was needing cheap and so far all the cheap furniture she seen was not that great. " I need cheap and decent furniture." she told him. He then smiled at her and she melted. " I have a few more clients to meet with so your welcome to hang out here if you want." he told her. As much as she would have liked to stay there and work for a couple hours she couldn't. " I would love too but I better get home so I can pack. I want to get moved in by tomorrow evening." she told him.
She then got up and threw the trash away. " Ok we will just meet back here at around 4:00 then." he told her. She threw the trash into the trash can and turned around to face him once more. " Sounds like a plan." she said as she opened the door and left. He watched her disappear before going back to work. He couldn't get her out of his mind no matter how hard he tried. He picked up a folder and tried to concentrate. Virginia went back to where she was staying at and started packing. She didn't have a whole lot of stuff so she knew it wouldn't take her that long. but the thought of being close to Andrew for a few hours scared her.
She cranked on her radio and turned up the volume and began packing the little bit of stuff she had brought with her and what she had bought since she had lived there. She knew that she would be without utilities until tomorrow sometime but she did not care she would deal with that for one night. She just wanted to get everything moved into her new place tonight and would worry about unpacking and getting settled in tomorrow. She got everything packed up and in boxes by two thirty so she took a walk through of the place to make sure she had gotten everything that was hers. She then started taking the small boxes out to her car and loaded it up. The big stuff would be put into Andrew's truck as well as the furniture she intended on getting that night and the furniture that wouldn't fit she would have to have it delivered. She then locked the door and headed back towards the insurance office to meet Andrew. She knew that she would be arriving a little early so she would visit with Margret for a bit while he finished up. She liked Margret and the two women became fast friends.
She reached the office building and pulled in and found a place next to Andrew. She got out and walked back inside. " Hello again Margret." she said as she entered. The older woman looked at her and smiled. " Well hello again to you too." she said and went back to what she was doing. " I am a bit early but I decided to come and visit with you while I waited." she said as she set down in a chair. " Yes he is in a meeting but he should be out shortly. He told me that he is taking you to Consar's Furniture." she said to her. Virginia than looked up st her and smiled. " Yes he is because I found me an apartment that I can afford and it is really nice." she said to her as Andrew was coming out. He walked up to Margret and handed her a file. " You two ladies out here gossiping about me." he said as he smiled.
This made the two women laugh at him. " No." they both said. Andrew walked back to his office to grab his things. " Lock up when you leave Margret." he said to the woman as he headed out. " Yes I will and you two kids behave." she said as the two of them walked out. She started to get into her car. " Do you just want to go with me and then I will bring you back when we are finished?" he asked her. She really didn't want to but knew that it made no sense to take two vehicles." I guess I can handle that." she said as she locked up her car and got in the passenger side of his truck. He then got in and started it. " I know your afraid of being around me. Trust me you have nothing to worry about." he said as he backed out.
This made her turn two shades of red and she looked out the window. " You're right and I am sorry I am acting this way." she said to him. The two of them headed to the furniture store and she was able to purchase everything that she needed for under a thousand dollars with a few extra items thrown in. After that they headed back to the office so that she could retrieve her car. Then they headed to her place to get the rest of her things and took it to her new place. " You want to go grab a bite to eat?" he asked her as they were bringing the last of the boxes in. " Sure I am getting hungry." she said. So the two of them then headed to a fast food joint and had dinner. They set and talked and even shared a few laughs for a couple of hours before they called it a night and he took her home. " I enjoyed being with you tonight." he told her. She then smiled at him and opened the truck door and stepped out. " I did as well." she said as she shut the truck door.
He wanted to kiss her that night but couldn't. He knew that this night would be the start of something but didn't think it would be nothing more than a friendship because she had secrets and reasons why she left but she wasn't willing to say yet. He too had secrets of his own and they would never be a couple as long as there were secrets between them. He started the truck and drove off into the night with her looking out the window.
