Oh well, at least he is going to do something productive today! Devon said to himself, thinking about the fundraiser that afternoon.

Devon smiled slightly, remembering how Michael had reacted to the news. After he had ever so kindly, reminded Michael about it, Michael had hastily dashed off, saying he had to pick up his tux.

Devon was just about to take a sip of his steaming hot tea, when a secretary interrupted him, causing him to spill his tea all over his neatly pressed suit.

"Oh I'm so sorry Mr. Miles!" the secretary said, rushing over to help him.

"That's quite all right, it should come clean," Devon reassured her. "What is it you wanted?"

"The caterers just called. Their stove caught on fire so they will be unable to come this afternoon. They said that they are very sorry and will refund your money," she replied. "Also..." The secretary continued, giving Devon more bad news.

Devon sighed, setting the phone down. Weeks of work down the drain! Devon thought, frustrated.

He had just called and canceled with one of the last people who were still able to come. After the caterers had canceled, things had gone down hill from there. One of the guests had gotten sick, another, their plane was rerouted because of poor landing conditions. A couple of other guests canceled because of the heavy traffic, and that was to name a few!

Now the only person left to call was Michael. He opened the link to Kitt. After a moment, Devon could hear the sound of horns blasting with classical music mixed in. I guess Kitt is getting his turn! Devon thought.

"Michael, I just wanted...." Devon stopped, staring at the hideous red tuxedo Michael was wearing. "What are you wearing?"

"It's a long story," Michael sighed. "What did you want?"

"I just wanted to let you know, the fundraiser has been canceled," Devon replied.

"It has? That's great!" Michael responded.

Devon smiled slightly, an idea coming to him. "Yes, I knew you would like that. Well, I'll see you this afternoon then," Devon said, shutting off the link. If Michael wasn't going to have the fundraiser to attend, then he was going to get caught up on all his paper work!

He might as well do something productive! Devon though, glad something good was going to come of this day. Although Michael might not agree with that assessment! Devon got up and grabbed Michael's paperwork, getting everything ready for Michael to start as soon as he arrived.
