I'm sorry to take so long.
It's been a long day.
It was still light enough to see across the gorge when an opening in the trees allowed, but the long swing to the far end of valley was away from the direction the vehicle had driven and blocked from sight by the curve of the canyon.
The track was long and ran straight to the edge of the roadway, and then into nothingness.
He'd seen him jogging the highway, his long hair, now covered by a helmet, spilling behind him.
Dean's Jeep was at the uphill end of the line of cluttered vehicles and Lydia Larkin was long gone by the time he was free to leave.
But cogent thoughts were few and he began to feel like an empty-nested squirrel facing a long, tough winter.
It's not as if I wasn't in police work long enough to know that, but Billy's death was such a god-awful waste of a young life.
Ed was okay, so long as he kept his belly away from the bar, Harold answered.
He wanted to ask her about the bones but knew any such discussion would be the height of tastelessness for a long time to come.
How could you let a little girl be alone with a convicted criminal long enough to be kidnapped?
How long has Martha been missing?
But don't worry, she's too stupid to get away very long.
Lydia, the long distance runner—now a smoker.
She took a long slow swallow of liquor.
You just took too damn long getting here.
What the hell do I care where he is as long as I don't have to work with him?
The time and chat, spent interspersed with interrupting chores, was long overdue.
I knew we couldn't get away for long but Patsy needed to leave and wanted me to go with her.
Brandon Westlake, the only other guest of long standing, was off on an early morning photo shoot but an unexpected prodigal returned to Bird Song just as the second batch of cinnamon rolls rolled out of the oven.
How long were they around?
I learned a long time ago that nice guys are predictable.
He paused long enough for his eyes to adjust.
But she's long dead, too.
Seeing the bet, he decided he wanted to stick around long enough to observe a few more events in the women's futures.
He hasn't been missing long enough to have starved.
Alex had loved once before, long time ago, and that girl had betrayed him.
You're welcome to come see her as long as we feel that it is in everyone's best interest.
After a long and fulfilling kiss, she laid her head on his chest and hugged him.
For a long moment he looked into her eyes.
Probably, but you'd have to wait for this one to get established and then a long time for the others to mature.
It was hard to tell whether she would go through with contesting the will, or if she even could after so long.
We can watch as long as we stay back a ways and don't make noise.
It seemed like a long time, but was probably no longer than fifteen minutes before the mare lunged to her feet, snapping the cord.
She had left the paint and equipment in the living room, so it wouldn't take long to set up.
Carmen filled out all the necessary paperwork and then settled down for a long wait.
The light green scrubs made his long features look sallow and the pale blue eyes that fixed on her seemed more tired than interested.
The car came to a stop as a long agonizing sob erupted from her lungs.
Long after she crawled into bed, she lay awake, thinking about Alex.
It didn't matter who called them as long as the man was put where he could do no more harm.
She sat there for a long time, leaning against the porch post and thinking about the first time they had met.
They said it might last as long as two weeks.
Maybe she was spooked tonight, but long ago she had learned to listen to that instinct... gut feeling, some might call it.
For a minute she stared at the picture, remembering what he had said so long ago about his mother having an affair.
Again a long hesitation.
But, we've been married so long and I didn't even know he had a living father.
As long as he was improving, there was hope.
No telling how long he had been in contact with Alex – maybe ever since he moved to Arkansas.
For a long moment they held each other, lost in a sweet moment of oneness.
How can you be shy after being married so long?
Do you still wear that long nightgown with the collar?
Exactly. How long have you been married?
Finally, while he was sleeping, she took a shower and pulled on a long nightgown.
Long after the fire burned down, she stared at the ashes, tears coursing down her cheeks.
How long had it been since he had held her – kissed her?
She let out a long sigh.
We haven't done that in a long time.
Maybe she would regret it later, but it was something she had wanted to know for a long time.
He shifted the rifle to his other hand and let out a long sigh.
How long have you known him and what is he like?
They talked for a long time and he agreed to stay for supper.
He'd told her the chances were slim long ago, but she wasn't ready for him to admit defeat quite yet.
He held her gaze for a moment too long before looking away.
Logan's taking off work early today, so we can have a long weekend at the beach.
She was happy to be functional, though that wasn't likely going to last long.
As long as it's not me.
Wynn was still for a long moment.
It was what she used long before your time.
Dressed in a sundress and sandals, Deidre left the bungalow on the beach and walked down the long driveway to the small road.
She thought for a long moment.
He withdrew long before she was ready for him to.
His heart stopped in his chest, and for a long moment, he couldn't breathe.
He strode through a curtained doorway in the corner and down a long hallway almost too narrow for either of them to fit.
They'd never trusted one another enough to share, and their father made things worse by compartmentalizing the Council's business and pitting the sons against one another long before he was killed.
Fate studied him for a long moment.
They were quiet for a long moment, listening to the ocean.
It was a sign, though, that things had gone on long enough.
Deidre stayed in place long enough for him to put some distance between them.
Her breath knocked from her, Deidre didn't move for a long minute then sat up, gasping.
His examination didn't last long, and the sensations faded.
