The Lucky 7 Meme

Thanks to the awesome Rachel Pudelek over at A Rainy Day Writer In the Evergreen State as well as Colin Smith who is also full of awesome (If you're not following them, what are you waiting for? You just have to click the link and follow the awesomeness.)  

I was tagged in the Lucky 7 Meme. I've been seeing so many people participate and have really enjoyed reading all the excerpts. And now I get my turn *claps to myself* *looks around to make sure no one saw that*

The rules are: 

1) Go to page 77 or your current MS
2) Go to line 7
3) Copy down the next 7 lines as they're written--no  cheating
4) Tag 7 other writers
5) Let them know


Because I have a gajillion (Is that a word? It should be) WIP's I decided to go with Discovering the Real Millie. Of course it's the part right before sh*t hits the fan. Happy reading. (I wish I could put 77 lines instead of 7, but rules are rules.)

For a little setup: Millie is in 1925 mistaken for her great grandmother and is having a discussion with her great-great grandfather. (Confused yet?)

"...So I need you to understand that everything I do is because I love you.” He pulled at the collar of his shirt. Millie could see the beads of sweat forming on his brow.

“Yes and I love you for that,” Millie said, feeling those would be the words her great-grandmother would have chosen.

With a slight curve of his lip he nodded. “Great things are about to happen for us. Great things. Now let’s get back to the party. We wouldn’t want to keep them waiting now would we?” He straightened his tie, took the handkerchief out of his pocket, wiped his forehead and stood up from the chair.

It gets really crazy after this....Anywho...My turn to tag 7 people. (I know this has been making the rounds. If you already have been tagged sorry, my memory sucks)
