small building to get their balls, scorecard, and
putters. She turned to cliff.
    "This
I'll let you pay for," she said, as she grabbed her stuff and
walked toward the first hole.
    "So,
this is a serious game then?" he asked.
    "Oh
yes," she answered. "It's very serious."
    By
the time he walked up behind her at the first hole she had to fight
back her own laughter. They played fair and kept the seriousness of
the game the entire time. It took all she had not to break out into a
giggle so many times. Rachel kept score on every single hole. Cliff
hit his ball into the windmill several times. He looked back at her
and she shook her head, making sure to call off the number each time
he tapped the ball.
    "You
think this is funny?" he asked. "Are you teasing me,
Rachel? I must be wrong."
    "Oh,"
she said. "I think it's hilarious. I most definitely am teasing
you, Cliff. Is there something you'd like to do about it out here?"
    She
gave him a wink and shook her butt as she lined up her ball at the
next hole.
    "I
would definitely like to do something about it out here," he
said, as he walked toward her.
    She
laughed and took off running. He was right on her heels.
    "Okay,"
she yelled. "Stop. Do you know how crazy we look out here? I
don't think it would be good for business to find your way into the
paper like that."
    "Please
get back to the game," he said with a smirk. "I don't think
you've beat me yet."
    "Do
you want to take another swing at the windmill?" she asked.
    He
reached out and pulled her into his arms. They were both laughing
hysterically.
    "I
haven't had this much fun," he said, as he thought. "Ever."
    "Neither
have I," she said, as she wrapped her arms around his neck and
hugged him. "Thank you so much."
    "No,"
he said. "Thank you. You have no idea."
    They
finished golfing. She beat him by ten strokes, and there was no way
she planned to let him live it down. There was an ice cream place
across the street. Cliff motioned over to it.
    "Come
on," he said, as he grabbed her hand and pulled her behind him.
"We should do it up right."
    They
both ordered sundaes and sat down in the sun on a bench.
    "Now
you're going golfing with me," he said. "We can see who's
better at the real game."
    "I
thought we just played the real game," she said with a smirk.
    "I
don't think so," he said. "Three Fridays from now you're
golfing with me."
    "Why
three Fridays from now? Is that the day you know you'll beat me?"
she asked.
    "No,"
he said. "I want you on my team at the golf outing."
    "What
gold outing?" she asked.
    "The
company golf outing," he said with a smile, as he held the
cherry from his sundae out for her to bite it.
    "No,
no, no," she said. "That's not happening."
    "Are
you turning me down?" he asked.
    "You
have a golf outing for your company?" she asked.
    He
shook his head.
    "Who
all goes?" she asked.
    "Anyone
in the company that wants to," he answered.
    "How
many people go?" she asked.
    "About
fifty people," he answered. "You're the golf champion. I
want you on my team."
    "That
was just a joke," she said. "I've never golfed for real
before. I most definitely am not golfing on your team at a company
function. You're the damn owner of the firm. You need to find people
that really know how to play. I can't believe you even joke about me
being on your team."
    "I'm
not joking. I really want you there with me," he said.
    "Why?"
she asked. "Why would you want me there?"
    Rachel
couldn't believe how worried she was at the thought of being at a
function for his company. What would people think, she wondered?
Would they think she wasn't pretty enough? Would they think she
wasn't good enough for him? Would any of them know who she was? Her
mind was spinning out of control.
    "Stop,"
he snapped, pulling her from her thoughts.
    She
looked over at him shocked.
    "Why
wouldn't I want you there? I want you beside me at the outing because
I care about you and want to share the day with you. It's always a
lot of fun. I can't imagine how much fun it would
