The tension was so thick in the air Penny felt like she could cut it with a knife. Her brandy was gone a moment later. Looking over, she saw that Jessica's was nearly gone too. Should she call Finny back?
Setting down her glass, she chuckled softly. "Well, if you think of anything else, be sure to send me an owl and I will be sure it is there. Bring something warm. There are a few nice walks to take. It is so beautiful there."
Gently, she reached for Jessica's glass. Taking it, she set it aside and stood. Demurely, she lifted the hem of her robe. Sliding into Jessica's lap, she set herself down lightly. Reaching for Jessica's hair, she played with it gently.
"You are so beautiful," Penny breathed. She knew she was being bad but she couldn't help it. She was so drawn to Jessica. Penny sat back so she could look at Jessica but also to create some distance so it wouldn't be so tempting to kiss her.
