think that we've been worshipping your work for the past few years!"  Micah said.
                "See, this is why I never tell people what I do for a living."  Willow said, frustrated.  "Brody, talk to me."
                "I'm just a little shocked, sorry.  It was bad enough that your mom is my boss, now you're a better architect than me?  That takes a little getting used to."  Brody said slowly, not looking at Willow.
                "No, don't even think like that.  It’s not about who is better at what.  Your house is awesome!  I was jealous the moment I looked at it thinking that whoever designed it was a genius!  I am still the same Willow that you met before.  My job doesn't define who I am, it’s just what I do.  You aren't going to take that out on me, are you?"  Willow asked.
                "I guess you're right.  I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be an ass, it’s just a little weird to be sleeping with someone you idolize, especially after finding out that the idol you thought was a man is a woman."  Brody half laughed.
                "Well, now you can idolize my body and my work at the same time."  Willow joked, hoping to break the tension.  It worked and everyone laughed.  "So, we're good again?"  Willow asked Brody.
                "Yeah, we are."  He said and pulled her in for a kiss.  "Can I have your autograph?"  Brody asked.
                "You're funny Country Boy."  Willow said and finished eating her breakfast.  "Seriously, you aren't going to treat me differently now, are you?"
                "No, I promise I won't.  But next time we go out to dinner, you're paying.  You must be loaded!"  Brody laughed.
                "Yeah, I am, but so are you!"  She replied as the phone rang and Sierra answered it.
                "Willow, it’s your mom."  She said when she handed the phone to Willow.
                "Hey mom, were your ears ringing or something?  We were just talking about you.  Well, actually two of your architects were talking about you.  Brody Harris and Micah Knowles.  You remember the guys we met while we were down there, that's them."  Willow said and then listened to her mother for a little while.  "I agree.  Have you seen Brody's house?  He's the one who designed it."  She nodded a few times as if her mom could see her.  "No mom, I don't think he rivals me, I think he is far better than me, he just hasn't had the kind of exposure I've had.  I know that you know how to get him the attention he deserves."  Her mother talked for a while, then they hung up.
                "Sorry, that was the first time we've gotten to talk since we left there.  She seems to have high praise for both of you.  She said there are a few idiots in the office, but both of you have very bright futures ahead of you.  She hopes that you will stick it out and keep working with her."  Willow said.
                "So our jobs aren't in jeopardy then?"  Micah asked and Willow shook her head as if to say no way.  "Yeehaw!"  Micah yelled.
                "You know, that's the first country thing I've heard come out of your mouth Micah!"  Willow laughed.
                Micah grabbed Sierra and hugged her, swinging her around in circles.  "Oh, the stress has been lifted!"  He cheered as everyone laughed at him.
                "Well, I hate to break up this little party, but we need to get you guys to the airport soon."  Sierra said sadly.
                "What?  Already?  But I feel like you guys just got here.  Maybe I should call my mom and have her give you guys the next couple of days off."  Willow offered, feeling so disappointed that they were leaving already.
                "No, don't do that.  We don't want to look like we're using ya'll to get time off from work.  Besides, ya'll have to work this week too, so
