'A Quarter For Your Shoe' (04/06)
Dec. 16th, 2008 02:10 pmYeah, the story grew by a part -- blame the voices :) Extra virtual Christmas cookies to anyone who who gets my little 'in joke' with one of the characters that appears. Thanks to everyone who has been leaving such lovely comments. It really does mean a great deal to me, and I appreciate each and every one!
Characters: Ezra Standish, Maude Standish, Original Characters
Notes: PG, Magnificent Seven, many thanks to
strangevisitor7 for the beta. Other Charlotte stories may be found here.
Summary: All Ezra wants for Christmas is his mother.
"Don't you trust Mr. Elbert?" Ezra asked curiously as they walked towards the business offices of Black Shipping. He had taken the case with her papers from her, insisting it was the gentlemanly thing to do and now held it in his arms, tight against his chest.
"Of course I do, Ezra. I wouldn't employ him as my business manager if I did not. But it behooves a business owner to be cognizant of all aspects of their operation. This is for the benefit of both me and those under my employ."
( Any further discussion was interrupted by the appearance of Mr. Elbert himself. )
