"Thank you," I said, smiling up at him. His blue eyes glittered as he stared at me, and I could feel my body heating. His look was intense. If I was made of ice, I would've melted to the ground right then and there.

"And this is Molly. She's a new friend of ours."

"Hi," Molly said, holding out her hand and almost purring. "I'm Molly Malone. Nice to meet you."

Travis took her hand and kissed it. I felt slightly jealous that she got a kiss on the hand, but I didn't care that much because I was much more into Foster.

"Molly Malone," Travis said. "Why does that name sound familiar?"

"Maybe because there's an Irish folk song called Molly Malone." She giggled.

"Is there?" he said, staring at her.

"Yeah, it starts, 'In Dublin's fair city where girls are so pretty.'"

"Oh yes." He grinned. "I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone."

"Well, that's me," she said, giving a little curtsy.

Rosalie and I exchanged glances and smiles.

"Well, very nice to meet you, sweet Molly Malone." Travis looked her over in her flimsy white dress, and she purred up at him like a kitty cat. It was obvious to all of us there that they had some crazy sexual chemistry, but then Travis's eyes turned back to me. "Alice, I hear you're interested in the associate program."

"I am. I'm really into finance," I said quickly. "I'd love to have an interview with you."

"Don't need an interview. You can start next week."

"Actually, sir," Foster added, "Molly's interested as well. I told her that we might have another spot available for her."

Travis looked over at Molly in surprise, a half smile on his face. "You're interested in finance, are you?"

"Oh yes. I love all things money." She laughed. "Don't you?"

"Well, that's why I run a finance company," he said. "Follow me, everyone. Let's go to our table, and we can get some drinks."

"Sounds good." Foster nodded. "You ready, Alice?"

"Yeah." I smiled at him. He nodded and turned away from me, and I was slightly deflated at that. He walked ahead with Travis, and Molly and I followed, with Rosalie and Oliver behind us.

"Oh my gosh. Foster's boss is hot as hell."

"He is really hot," I said.

"You're right. I totally want to do him, like tonight," she said, looking at me with a glint in her eyes.

"What?" I said.

"Girl, he is sex on legs, and I need some sex. Do you know how long it’s been?"

"But you can't have sex here. This is a charity event."

"It's not like we're at the charity," she said, laughing. "Plus, he was totally into me."

"I mean, he did seem like he was into you." I nodded.

"He also seemed like he could be into you." She looked over at me. "Are you into him?"

"What?" I said, blinking at her. "What do you mean?"
