kate's 365 days of female characters:

No one would ever really describe Carmen as 'the shy girl' but certainly what was playing on her mind was bold even for herself. She had been watching them for a moment, seeing how they engaged with their surroundings. She took a deep breath as she watched them standing over at the bar. Rolling her shoulders back she made her way over to stand beside them.

It was a beautiful day, the chef had decided to take the day off due to his son Nanny not being able to make it. Ben did not have much going on today and so he decided to go to the park with Erik. Benjamin could not believed how fast time moved. It was already January and it felt like the first of December was only yesterday and in a few months his sleeping son would be a year old. He smiled as he pushed the stroller, adjusting the blanket when he looked up with a smile and saw Carmen.

Asher: I wore one of the outfits you picked out for me to work the other day and it was way cooler than I ever could have expected.

"thank you," she blushed and kissed him on the cheek, "you look good too." Carmen followed Tanner up to this room, though she knew how to get there on her own. As soon as they were in the room she began trying to unzip the dress, wanting to no longer have yards of fabric holding her back.

"Woah,” Tanner set his drink down on his desk before reaching his hands out to touch her hips. With the slow shake of his head, he spoke with a titled smile on his face. “I mean— woah. But you know I didn’t, like, bring you up here just for that, right?” His eyebrows dug together. His mind flicked back to Fitz. To the horrible way he’d spoke about her.
