The Scotland Sweetheart

One : Welcome to the Show

Elsie smiled and excitedly waved as she crossed the stage to the high movie like chairs as she sat beside Kelly and Ryan. She shook their hands before gracefully hopping up into the chair. She couldn't help but notice how sweaty her hands were and how her mouth was full of cotton. It was her first tv appearance and she was beyond nervous. Kelly smiled as she looked to Elsie and said,"Welcome to the show! I must say you look absolutely stunning!" Elsie couldn't help but blush slightly as she looked over her new favorite outfit. Elsie placed a hand over her heart and said," Oh, thank you! I don't even compare when it comes to you, Kelly." Kelly waved her off with a big smile as Ryan leaned. He gave her his award winning smile and said," I don't know about you guys but I wanna cut to the chase. Now I dont usually read romance books-." Kelly cut him off with a snicker as she gently slapped his chest with Elsie's latest book. Kelly rolled her eyes and said," You don't usually read is more like it." Ryan let out a playfully, irritated sigh before rolling his eyes. Ryan regained his composure and said,"Anyways, moving on. I don't usually read romance books but I absolutely adore yours. They're not too chic-flicky, just right." Elsie gave him big smile before blushing even more. This sexy man just told her he loved her book! Elsie placed her hand on her lap and said," Thank you, it means the world coming from you. I never really liked chic-flicks myself and I actually started writing horror and sci-fi. But I fell in love with romance several years ago and it's been an amazing journey." Kelly piped up as she straightened in her seat giving the camera a large smile. Elsie looked to her as she said," Speaking of journey's I hear that you are taking a sabbatical to Score to finish the next book!" Elsie nodded as she nervously scratched her palms. Elsie smiled as Ryan gasped. He put a hand on his chest and said," I'm so jealous. You'll have to send me like tons of post cards." Elsie nodded again as adjusted in her seat. She took a sip of her glass of water before she said," I know I'm so excited. It will just be me, my type writer and my tooth brush in a small Scottish cottage with this beautiful scenery. I pinky swear that there will be post cards." She held out her pinky making the audience laugh. Ryan enthusiastically wrapped his pinky around hers giving her his big white smile again, making her cheeks blush a dark crimson. Kelly giggled and said,"Ryan stop flirting with the poor girl. If she blushes anymore she'll be redder than a cherry tomatoe." Ryan rolled his eyes as he slipped his pinky away. He made a fake pouty face before giving them both a onry look. He shrugged and said," Now I've read some her sexy scenes she's wrote. She shouldn't blushing too awful hard at my shameless flirting." Once again Kelly smacked his chest with her book, as the audience laughed once again. This time Elsie face turned a cherry tomatoe color as she playfully his her cheeks. Elsie gave the a guilty smile as she said,"Those scenes can be a little naughty. I highly suggest a age limit of sixteen and up. Those scene are why mom and grandma isn't allowed to buy my books. I get the publishers to screen some books for her and my grandma." Kelly held over Elsie's book to her as she pointed to the bright yellow marker in the middle. Elsie gently opened the book as Kelly said," Were about out of time with our fabulous guest, Elsie Jar. But Elsie has agreed to read an exert from her newest book, Cookies and Cowboys." Elsie smiled as she looked over the highlighted paragraph before she read," Grace couldn't help salivate as she took a big bite of the warm ginger bread cookie. She couldn't help but moan out in delight as the cinnamon and nutmeg hit her tongue in magical harmony. One of the things she loved about the holidays was gingerbread and mistletoe. She looked out onto the snow covered ranch as she thought of boss, Joe Montana. How she wouldn't like to grab him under the mistletoe and taste gingerbread on his tongue. But those were simply dreams and never would become a reality. Or so she thought till felt two callused hands grab her hips, pulling back against a hard body. She audibly gulped as he hotly whispered in her ear,' Keep moaning like that, Gracey girl, and I'll have to shove you up under that dang mistletoe you just had to have hung in the den.' Grace couldn't help but gasp as she shot awake looking around her bedroom. Grace held a hand to head before she whispered,' No more wine before bed.'" Elsie shut her book making the audience cheer and clap as the three of them stood. Elsie hugged the two before they led her off stage, waving to audience as she went. Elsie couldn't help but do a mental happy dance. Her first TV appearance, perfect success. She hoped.
