Unfortunately, to her frustration, thoughtless acts still happened far too often. Someone had tossed a banana peel onto the floor instead of putting it in the trash.

Her focus was locked on the room ahead, and she didn t notice what lay in her path.

The heel of her shoe slid over the banana peel, producing a sharp, abrupt sound. Before she could register what was happening, her balance gave way, and she pitched forward.

A startled cry left her lips as she squeezed her eyes shut, bracing for the impact.

But the painful fall she expected never came. Read complete version only at Find[?]ovel.net

Instead, there was a muted thud, and she found herself sliding into a warm, solid chest.

She didn t want him to get the wrong idea and was about to explain that the whole thing had been an accident.

Her face burned red in embarrassment, and she wished she could vanish into the floor.

No, that s not necessary, she refused quickly, uneasy about his comment. My legs work perfectly fine.

Then why is it that every time you see me, you either end up on your knees or throwing yourself at me?
