Lisa smiled and glanced up at Giddon.
Tammy half skipped and hopped down the hall, throwing a shy smile over her shoulder at Lisa before disappearing into a doorway.
Giddon glanced at her sharply over the top of the paper.
Lisa stared at her.
She had always been a recluse at heart, often declining a social outing with her friends so that she could be alone with a book or her writing.
Being close enough so that she could attend college while living at home had been their rationalization, but she suspected they were also trying to stimulate her social life.
At this point the loss of her car was more an inconvenience than anything else.
Directing Connie to the house would be difficult, but Lisa could wait at the end of the drive.
She slid into the chair across from Tammy, and Sarah sat down at the other end of the table.
Lisa winked at her and Tammy ducked her head, smiling shyly.
Sarah waved a hand at Lisa, watching Giddon intently.
She glanced at Lisa You sit down and finish your meal.
Giddon stood, cramming his hands into the pockets of his jeans as he frowned down at Lisa.
At her surprised expression, he quirked a brow.
She stared at his broad back, testing a hand full of his Jacket gingerly.
The ATV climbed over large rocks, threatening to unseat them both at any moment.
Such an unlikely spot for a home site, and yet, the remains of a chimney gave indisputable proof that one had existed at some point.

Far from the grouchy expression he had put on at the beginning of the ride, now his eyes flashed with humor, and his lips were twisted in a friendly smile.
Giddon paused at a mud hole and pointed at a track.
She stared at the stick.
Chancing a glance at his face, she found him watching her in a strange way.
The agonizing memories ruptured to the surface at last, forcing a long overdue reaction.
He shoved a shiny red object at her.
It wasn't enough, but it was all she felt capable of at the moment.
Finally she looked up at his face.
I also have an offer to work at the law office where I worked last summer.
She stared at him.
Not more than four hours ago he was so mad at her that he could hardly speak.
Maybe Connie wouldn't be at home.
Make yourself at home.
Connie stared up at him in amazement.
Connie stammered out a prim salutation, still staring at him, and Lisa blushed at Giddon's obvious amusement.
Giddon returned to his place on the couch, his eyes twinkling with humor and the slightest suggestion of a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
I guess he is... or at least was.
If you absolutely insist on doing this, at least leave me instructions on how to get there... and a phone number where you can be reached.
He glanced at Lisa's luggage.
Lisa glanced at Connie; not at all sure she was making a wise decision.
At the car, Connie hugged Lisa while Giddon impatiently held the car door open for her.
She glanced at him suspiciously.
She stared out the windows at the telephone poles as they approached and sped off in a blur.
She stared at his profile and tried to make her voice cool and commanding.
He jerked his head around and stared at her.
Glancing at the road behind them he pulled back onto the highway.
Sarah met them at the door, her puzzled gaze going from Giddon to Lisa.
Giddon removed the suitcases from his car and joined them at the door.
Again she glanced at Giddon.
For the most part, the work she did for the Giddon family was little more than she would have done at home - with the exception that at home she probably would have made a sandwich instead of a meal.
Tammy could swim almost as well as Lisa, but Sarah couldn't swim at all, confessing unabashed that she was afraid of the water.
They usually spent the morning hours in the garden and the afternoon at the pool.
At noon he would come in from a path in the woods, eat and then return by the same path.
What lay at the end of that path?
A cool breeze lifted the damp hair at her temples and ruffled the hem of her full skirt.
Laughing softly at the matching shadows of her hair and skirt, she imagined it was a Christmas tree.
Her face grew hotter and she gnawed at her bottom lip.
The tablet that she tucked under her mattress at night contained all sorts of conclusions at the end of that trail.
Lisa asked, as she gazed at the beautiful buckskin gelding.
As Giddon grabbed the reins, Diablo turned his head to look at his master.
Lisa rose from her chair and glanced down at Sarah.
He was unusually coordinated for such a large man, at least any she had seen up to now.
Sure, that sounded possible... if he didn't spend every day at the barn.
He gazed down at her with nothing less than adoration.
Lisa stared at the floor, consumed by loneliness.
She gave up her attempt at relaxing, and abandoned the lawn chair.
But there were more important things to think about at the moment.
She lifted her chin, defying him to lash out at her again.
Lisa stared at Allen in disbelief.
She glanced down at her conservative one-piece suit and was suddenly consumed with fury.
She had him at bay and he was going to pay for his belligerent behavior.
Tammy grinned up at her.
She glanced up at him sharply.
Like taking a job at the home of a stranger?
She stared at him coldly.
At least they had one common interest.
As the path turned, the broad side of a metal building came into view, nestled at the foot of a cliff.
I saw some flowers in the woods and went to look at them.
She stared at her shoes, remembering their first kiss by the creek.
She stepped back and glared at him.
At any rate, he had successfully removed her barrier.
She smiled up at him innocently.
She glanced down at the sealed envelope in her hand.
There was probably an innocent explanation for the scene at the building.
But no, it wasn't proof at all.
Standing at the mailbox, it occurred to her that the red flag would be exactly that for Yancey.
Back at the house she showered and changed before starting lunch.
Still, if that were the case, she need not have brought up the telephone call at the table.
Pushing through some sumac that she thought bordered the clearing where the building stood, she squinted up at the sun.
At any rate, Giddon would be back soon.
Frantically, she grabbed at the five-leaf ivy that covered the ground.
Fear clutched at her heart with cold fingers.
He broke through the brush and stared down at her, his expression a mixture of concern and confusion.
He glanced up at the cliff and his complexion paled slightly.
Sit down and let me look at it.
I stay here at the house where it's safe.
Yancey rolled his eyes at his mother and turned his palms up to God.
Lisa started for her room to get a book to read and paused in the hallway to look at a photograph again.
Lisa asked as she turned to look at Sarah.
Lisa glanced sharply at Sarah, a slow flush invading her face.
She glanced back at Lisa and smiled mischievously.
Every time he lashes out at you and gets his nails clipped in the process, it erases a little more of that fear.
She glanced back at him sharply and caught her breath.
Instead she accepted the entire package at face value.
At his affirmative nod, she hurried to her room and changed into jeans and sneakers before he could change his mind.
He glanced up at her frowning face and chuckled.
He glanced around at her and winked.
An armadillo stared at them from a rocky ledge as they passed, and a doe and her fawn darted across the trail not more than a hundred yards ahead, disappearing into the brush.
The creek flowed over a succession of rock ledges and formed pools at the edge where tadpoles swam.
She glanced up at Yancey, who was lounging against a tree watching her.
Lisa tapped Yancey's shoulder and pointed at it.
She gasped at the view.
At first she nodded agreement, and then a cold feeling clutched at her heart.
Yancey looked down at her as he helped her from the ATV.
She said nothing, but when they entered the kitchen to find Len sitting at the table, his expression was wary.
He tensed and glared at her.
Len glanced at Yancey uncertainly and then shifted his attention back to her.
He glanced nervously at Yancey, who was still glaring at Lisa.
He glanced back at Lisa.
Would you like to come take a look at it?
I saw it in the paper yesterday and thought since I had Saturday off, I'd come out and look at it for you.
She glanced at Yancey, who was watching her with a confused expression.
She didn't look at Yancey when they left.
He glanced at her and shook his head.
Lisa stared at his profile.
At least he had found the correct profession.
He glanced at her and smiled.
She sobered and stared down at her hands.
She stared at him, but he didn't look at her.
But at least you had my best interest in mind.
That didn't explain what she had seen at the building.
He has a way of looking at you...
At her nod he continued.
I'll keep that in mind the next time the sergeant barks at me.
She stared up at him.
At least he was getting out of the house.
At the car, he opened the door for her in a gentlemanly way.
She glanced around at the crystal chandeliers and velvet curtains.
He was sitting at a table across and down from them.
As they blended in with the rest of the dancers, she glanced back at the table where the man sat.
She recoiled inwardly at the malice in his eyes.
She gasped and glanced up at his face.
She stared at her glass.
She glanced up at Yancey.
The next time she glanced at the table where she had seen the driver, no one was there.
He was a tall dark figure in the night, as he stood looking down at her.
The night air was chilly on her bare arms and she shivered involuntarily, annoyed at herself because it looked like an obvious ploy.
He glanced at the bottle in her hand and lifted an eyebrow "Spin the bottle?"
Examining the envelope, she replied without looking at him.
At least it was still sealed and it was from Connie.
She dressed and arrived in the kitchen to find everyone already at the table eating.
It sounds good, but I'm supposed to meet Connie at noon.
Mrs. Giddon glanced at Yancey.
He glanced at his mother and colored a little.
She looked down at her plate before they discovered they had been observed.
She followed him to the front door and looked up at him inquisitively.
Tears filled her eyes, but she forced the water fight at her car into her mind to push out the other.
He smiled down at her.
At the car, he opened the door and glanced back at her, his expression reflective.
Lisa sat down at her plate.
She stared through the window at the trail.
Most of the time I'm at the pool or resting in the air conditioned house.
Connie glanced at her.
Lisa looked down at her hands.
She tipped her head to the side and smiled at Lisa.
Connie stared at her.
She hesitated, glancing at Lisa.
She smiled at Connie.
She stopped at a light and glanced at a shop to her right where some people were standing around talking.
Who hasn't sat at a stop light and been so distracted by something else that they didn't notice the light was green?
She was staring at the cake, trying to find some fond memory to shove aside the pictures in her mind when Sarah walked into the room.
Still looking back at it, he started for the house.
Tammy turned around and pointed at the cake.
As long as she didn't wind up at that building, her safety was of no real concern.
He was good at deceptive conversation – too good.
Maybe he didn't like to walk, but he was certainly good at it – and capable of stealth.
At the top of the trail she paused to catch her breath.
Yancey stopped beside her and looked back down at the house.
He glanced down at her, his expression tender.
She glanced up at him, basking in the afterglow of a good scare.
At her words, his face paled.
One thought had been gnawing at her consciousness since the first time she suspected him of being involved in drugs.
He never looked directly at her, but the way he held back branches was indication enough that he knew she was there and was thinking of her.
Of course, she didn't leap cars with motorcycles or sky dive, but in retrospect, she had always been attracted to danger – at least to some degree.
She stared at his back.
They might have considered her an innocent bystander in her relationship with Allen, but being on the sideline again would, at minimum, make them suspicious.
She glanced up at Yancey, but he gave no indication he might give her any privacy.
Yancey moved away from the wall and reached for the phone, but she glared up at him, hugging the receiver to her chest.
She glanced at Yancey, who was giving the forward in the magazine on his lap undue attention.
He was in his chair, trying to control his curiosity, but she couldn't let it rest at that.
He dropped into the chair and glared at her.
She tapped her pencil against the paper, frowning at the scrawled handwriting.
He stared at Lisa, his expression sullen.
Lisa stared up at him, the blood draining from her face.
Maybe she should be, at that.
She glanced down at Sarah.
At first she had thought he tried, but there was no missed call – no message.
She simply wasn't looking at it – or maybe for it.
How many times have I told you not to leave the house at night in your bare feet?
It was something she had smelled at the University ... but when and where?
She glanced down at the towel tucked around his midsection and gasped.
He might be irritating at times, but he was never boring.
At first she thought it was Yancey, and then she realized it was Allen.
Leaping on the bed, which was now in her room at the Giddon home, she bounced up to the window.
He poured a cup of coffee and sat down at the table.
Lisa smiled at her.
In fact, until the death of her family, she rarely ever dreamed – or at least didn't remember them.
Maybe next time Sarah went shopping... and Yancey wasn't at home.
Mom always used to want everyone home before dark – as though anything was out there at night that wasn't there during the day.
At the house, she took her time going through some pictures.
She glanced at her watch.
At least he didn't appear to be drunk.
Allen stared at her for a minute, as though confused.
She kicked her feet and swung at him with her fists.
Lisa rolled over, coughing and gagging, unable to get enough breath at a time to fill her lungs.
He stopped at the door.
She thought he was a friend and told him you were at the house.
She stared at him blankly.
Then when I caught him spying on me at the restaurant in Huntsville...
Yancey frowned at him.
Lisa glanced at Yancey, who immediately came to her rescue.
She glanced up at Yancey and wiped her eyes.
Why do you look at Mr. Giddon?
From the corner of her eye, she saw Yancey look sharply at Len.
Lisa gazed up at him.
He glanced up at Yancey.
By the time he returned, she was waiting at her car.
Yet Yancey had been frightened at the very thought of it.
Any decision not to become involved with him at this point was posthumous.
He pushed the passenger's side door open and she leaned down to look at him.
At some point, the tears stopped and sleep began.
She immediately looked in the mirror at her neck.
I didn't see the girl at the pool.
Yancey scowled at him.
She held her breath while she tugged at the window, letting it out in a sigh of relief when the sash lifted quietly.
So that was why he was glaring at her at the dance.
Lisa stared at him, too frightened to move.
At the house, she turned her car around and parked so it faced the drive, ready to leave at a moment's notice.
He didn't look at her when she walked through.
He glanced at her and then turned his attention back to the can in his hand.
It must have helped, at least to some degree, because when he spoke again outside her door, his voice was controlled.
Tears were streaming down her cheeks, but she glared at him.
Find yourself another sitter to boss and holler at!
A sob tore at her throat, and she slung the clothes at him.
Lisa stared at him in amazement.
He stared at her long and hard, his expression intent.
They wanted her out of the way, or at least silent.
Yancey glanced that way and then back at her.
They stared at each other for a moment.
Lisa glanced at Yancey, who silently divided his attention between Connie and Lisa.
She raised her face to look at him and caught Sarah and Connie making a hasty exit from the room.
She chanced a look at his face only to discover that he was laughing.
Len colored and glanced at Connie, who dimpled and firmly stated, "Yes."
Maybe it would be wise to separate the two at times.
Well, yes I do, but I don't know why I gave in to temptation at a time like that.
There is something about the way she looks at you when she needs your help – so vulnerable.
There wasn't anything on that tablet that I didn't already know at that point, though.
Spencer shoved his hands in his pockets and stared at the ground.
He finally looked up at Len.
He sold his first painting at age fifteen – something like $17,000.
She glanced quickly at Quint.
You just have to work at it a little at a time.
After you spend a day at college, you go to work at a job where you can sit down the rest of the evening.
Julia nodded and glanced at Adrienne with one eye.
Brandon glanced at Adrienne as he opened the door for Julia.
At Adrienne's startled expression, Rachel laughed.
She chopped at the hamburger meat in the skillet with a spatula.
It was at least partially true.
She lifted the lid and peeked at the hamburger meat.
When I'm not studying medicine, I'm practicing it at the hospital.
Rachel stared at her, obviously confused.
Adrienne grabbed a large stainless steel spoon from its hanger on the wall and primped at her distorted reflection.
Following that resolution, she was up at five the next morning getting ready for work.
At least it would be quiet.
At the kitchen door she nearly ran into a dark form.
She glanced up at him, a fork full of eggs half way to her mouth.
After a few moments, he glanced up at her.
She glanced quickly up at Brandon.
She glanced up at him and smiled.
He paused with his hand on the ignition key and glanced at her.
She glanced at his face, but it betrayed no emotion.
She leaned forward and peered at his somber features.
Was that what he was hinting at when he said she was his best friend - that he needed someone to talk to?
She stared out the window at the colorless winter landscape.
Brandon raised a brow at Adrienne.
Mrs. Marsh smiled at Adrienne.
They followed his parents into the house and Adrienne hesitated at the dining room door.
Brandon glanced down as he stepped around her and then grabbed her arm She smiled up at him mischievously.
She glanced at Brandon.
Adrienne laughed and glanced at Brandon.
Brandon scowled at his mother as he handed her the tray of fried chicken.
She glanced at Adrienne again.
Mr. and Mrs. Marsh stared at her for a moment and finally Mr. Marsh spoke.
He continued to stare at Adrienne while he spoke to Brandon.
Brandon blushed at the implication.
Nobody stays at home to look after the kids any more.
She smiled sweetly at Mr. Marsh.
Mr. Marsh stared at her, his expression unreadable.
She's working at the hospital to pay for her education.
Brandon nearly choked on his tea, and Mrs. Marsh stared at her plate, not completely hiding a smile.
She scowled at him.
