Worlds Apart (Open)

Ophelia looked up to see Richard at her window. She didn't know whether to be happy or not. She looked at his suit which was now stained and shook her head. She was a one woman disaster and it was time to admit it.

Getting out of the car, she grabbed her bags. "I have to call a cab," She said as she shouldered them,"And then I have to figure out where to tell the cab to go."

Looking over at Richard again she said,"I'm so sorry about...everything. They really should declare me a national disaster."
 
Richard takes Ophelia's hand. "Well why not tell the cab driver to take you to my place or better yet, how about I drive you there?" He replies with a smile.

"I would pull you towards me and give you a kiss, but I was hit by a typhoon earlier." He replies with a smile. "Don't worry about the suit, it'll clean."
 
Ophelia groaned. "You don't understand, I didn't just dump sandwiches on you. I...well, I didn't mean to but I started a totally wild rumor about you. I can't seem to do anything but meddle in your life."
 
Richard just had to laugh. "Obviously you didn't hear the rumor about me last week. The one that said I have a pet tiger in my house, or wait better yet, there was the one that said I was secretly a Russian spy. That one was funny." He just shakes his head. "Rumors happen and today's hot rumor will turn into tomorrow's great joke."
 
Ophelia smiled at him and handed him her bags. "Yeah? Well just wait until they learn that I'm staying at your place and see what kind of rumors you hear then."

She shut the back door of her car and sighed,"But it's only temporary, until I can find a place of my own...and a new job."
 
"Probably that I kidnapped you and am keeping you locked in the cellar." He pauses, "No actually the sex slave in the cellar was three months ago. So it would be repetitive. No matter, I doubt anyone will truly find out."

He helps her with er bags and plops them into his car.

"And feel free to stay as long as you want, I'll even allow you to pay rent if you feel more comfortable doing that."
