[QUOTE="kid A, post: 892546, member: 11757"] As Lt. Reed finished, Andreev thought about his options. He didn't really care for either choice. He was, of course, tired. It had been a long day, and he could use some sleep before he was jettisoned off to meet Lt. Donovan. And he couldn't deny, of course, that he was more than a little curious about what might happen once he and the the airwoman reached the apartment. But, if what she told him about the first letter recipient was true, then he realized that there might be danger waiting for them at the airport in the morning. He would very much like to see Lt. Reed again, under different circumstances, and would hate to put her in danger because of him. On the other hand, a 9 to 10 hour drive during the night didn't exactly ring out to him as a desirable option either. He had worked long hours all week so far, and had been at work today since about 7:00am. Between Reed and himself, he was sure they could make the drive, and maybe both of them could catch some sleep, but he still wished there was another option. After some consideration, he spoke up. "Lietuenant, as much as I would like to go back to the apartment for our drink, I am thinking it would be safer for us to continue our drive north to SJ AFB. Although I know it is your duty, I would very much like to avoid putting you in any danger because of me, and I am afraid that if what you say is true, there may be trouble waiting for us at the airport in the morning. Yes, I think it would be safer if we just drive through the night. Perhaps, then, when I return we can have our drink. When you are off duty." Before she pulled back onto the road, he got out of the back seat and joined her in the front of the car. "Now, since we have a little time on our hands, you could tell me a little more about yourself. Oh, and do let me know if you will need me to drive for a few hours." [/QUOTE]
