Coming down off their high, they said their goodnights and hung up. Stephanie rolled over, reposition her broken leg and dreamed of Norman, wondering when they would finally have a chance to have a real life encounter. The talks continued daily and the feelings between them were getting stronger. One Wednesday morning, Stephanie found a note scribbled in her principal handwriting. "Come to my office as soon as you get this. I need to see you Principal Boisvenue ." Oh hell, now what? she thought as she made her way slowly on her crutches careful not to step on her casted leg to the principal office. She knocked lightly on his door and peered inside. He motioned for her to sit down while he was on the phone. She sat, rested her crutches beside her and crossed her left leg over her cast while she waited. She looked at her watch and silently pleaded with him to hurry up since her class was starting in 30 minutes. Teaching on crutches was fantastic but a little bit more difficult then she expected. Norman often suggested that she used a wheelchair. The idea of a woman wearing a plaster cast using a wheelchair is very erotic for some people. While the principal was on the phone, he rustled through papers on his desk until he found what he was looking for and set it aside. After hanging up, he looked up at Stephanie. Stephanie moved on the chair trying to get her broken leg more comfortable. "How is your leg Miss Robinson" "Much better, thank you. I will still be on crutches for months but the pain is disappearing." Stephanie loved to talk abut her broken leg. She knew she looked good in the cast and after all those years of waiting, dreaming and fantasizing... "The reason why I asked you to come in here, is because something suddenly came up, actually 2 things to be accurate and I want to know if you have any plans for this weekend." Oh God! He's not asking me out is he?? she pondered as she studied the principal's face for any type of clue as to why he would be asking her such a personal question. "Umm," she stammered in an unsure voice, "I just planned on staying in and resting my broken leg. Why, why do you ask?" "Well, there is an international symposium in Florida on Friday that I was suppose to attend If you wanted to go, we'd pay for your transportation and your hotel room for the whole weekend. It would be a good way to rest your broken leg in sunny Florida" She stared at him in disbelief. "Did I just hear you say Florida?" she inquired, making sure she wasn't hearing things. The principal scanned the brochure and another piece of paper that he had on his desk before handing both to her, "Yeah, it says Ft Lauderdale Florida on here and the other one said Yes...Im a female caster. Look at them for yourself." He said while staring at her cast and smiling Stephanie stared at her story that she wrote about a year ago and carefully examined it. Sure enough, he had to be the one to find out about her website. "I'll go!" she said without any hesitation. "Are you sure?" he asked, "I wouldn't want to impose on a weekend of staying in and resting your broken leg in that...beautiful cast." Stephanie's eyes lit up as she use her crutches to get up from her seat, "Just tell me what time I need to leave and I will be ready sir." "Great. Thanks Stephanie. I really appreciate you going on such short notice. I will have Trudy sign you up and have all of the information on your desk by this afternoon and please Stephanie call me David At the door, she stopped and turned around on her crutches, giving him a great view of her casted leg. "You did say that the school board is paying for my hotel for the whole weekend, right?" "Yes. Is that a problem?" he asked lightly, looking up from her cast for the first time in minutes. He realized for the first time since he found Stephanies double life on the web, how sexy she this woman is. So desirable on her crutches with this long plaster cast. "Ohhhhh no," she said through a smile, "It won't be a problem at all." She closed the door behind her. At her desk, waiting for the kids, using both hands she put her heavy cast on a chair. A red light flashed on her phone indicating she had a message. She typed in her PIN number and listened as Norman's voice told her that he was sorry he missed her and to call him when she could. She dialed his number and waited for him to answer. "Hello?" "You are not going to believe what just happened!" Stephanie gushed into the telephone. "What? Is it bad? Talk to me," his voice dripping with concern. "Well, first off, what do you have planned for this weekend?" she asked in her most nonchalant voice while rubbing her plaster cast. "Nothing really. Now are you going to tell me what happened or not?" "Ohhhh, I was just wondering. I just got back from the principal's office and I have a workshop that I have to go to this weekend. That's all." "That sucks. You were planning on resting your broken leg?" "Well," it's actually this weekend and the school board is paying for my whole weekend -- hotel included, perfect cover story love." "Is anyone going with you?" "No, I'm going by myself," she replied. "So where is the symposium?" "Well," she said as her voice trailed off, "that is why I asked what you are doing this weekend. The symposium is in Florida" "You're kidding, right?" he asked, desperate to believe her, but not wanting to get his hopes up. "Norman. I am really going to be there for the weekend. I have to go to the workshop. I promised I would go, but the rest of the weekend is ours. That is, if you want it to be ours." Part 4 to come
