When the women disappeared down the hallway, Joel slipped back around the corner and into the breakroom. He glanced around, and found what he needed. Kelsey had left her box of decorating supplies behind one of the counters. He grabbed a roll of tape, and pulled a chair over to the doorway.

He took his purchase from the flower shop from his pocket. And he couldn't help but grin as he tried to tape the mistletoe over the door. This was one of the best ideas he'd ever had. He didn't know why he hadn't come up with it sooner. Who cares that it wasn't Christmas till now. Mistletoe was mistletoe, regardless of the time of year. And he was going to use it to his advantage.
