    Betsy pivoted around, wipeing her face, and hugged her.

    32

    Betsy printed out Martha's Email and a list of FBI offices around the country.

    33

    Betsy screamed, It's like if The Lord Jesus was standing here, writing a mother's day card to the Virgin Mary, you'd be sitting around on your asses discussing if it was really the month of May!

    34

    Betsy was alone on the porch but as we approached, Martha opened the screen door, her arm around a frail looking man, about five-seven, who wore an off-center toupee and a fragile smile.

    35

    Betsy was in the kitchen, baking scones for a mid-morning snack, while the rest of us were lounging around the main room vetoing each other's suggestions.

    41

    Bring my car around.

    42

    But when I do, whatever I am, I can't get far without terrifying the people around me.

    44

    Can Howard have an hour off to show me around Keene before I leave?

    45

    Can't you just picture them swimming around on that pond, ducking their heads gracefully to feed.

    46

    Cassie gazed around at the ranch.

    47

    Cautiously her fingers felt the ground around her and touched the cold steel barrel.

    48

    Cautiously, she crept up to the door and peered around it, jerking her head back instinctively when she spotted Yancey unlocking a door to an inner office.

    49

    Checking to see if anyone was around, she exited her room.

    50

    Claudette glanced around the room.

    51

    Coldness, then the sound of the storm beating the building around him.

    52

    Come on and I'll show you around a little before I turn in.

    53

    Cynthia jerked her head around and stared at Claudette.

    54

    Cynthia looped the coils of the telephone cord around her finger.

    55

    Cynthia was careful not to flirt with Cade again, putting on a professional front when he was around.

    56

    Darian's power had grown; the air of the room shimmered, and light and dark alike warped in the space around Darian.

    57

    Darian's voice came as if across a great distance and echoed around the room.

    58

    Deciding to use the sun to orient herself, she detoured around several dense patches of blackberry bushes.

    59

    Despite her fear, she wrapped her arms around him.

    60

    Do they have a kitchen around here?

    61

    Don't you girls know how dangerous it is to be walking at night around here?

    62

    Dusty felt the slow change in the air around him and tensed.

    63

    Dusty looked around the gym, sensing it was beyond time for him to admit he couldn't prevent what was coming.

    64

    Dusty looked around them, gaze settling on the only car on the streets that didn't belong to him and wasn't on blocks.

    65

    Dusty released her, strapped in the last weapon, and looked around.

    66

    Dusty said around a mouth full of vegetables.

    67

    Dusty turned around and kept walking.

    68

    Dusty wondered what the hell was wrong with everyone around him and rubbed the back of his neck.

    Eat out in style as you tour around this great city.

    70

    Economically, we understand the world around us in terms of scarcity.

    71

    Even the way she wore her hair, with those braids wrapped around the top of her head like a crown and the long shiny blond curls falling around her shoulders and down her back – she wasn't simply beautiful.

    72

    Ever since Michael discovered that Brandon lives here, he's followed me around like a puppy.

    73

    Everyone and everything around them had frozen in mid-movement, like an eerie sculpture garden.

    74

    Everything around her started to spin and then went black.

    75

    For the first time, Cassie realized what a target they had been around the fire at night.

    76

    For the most part, the facial expressions of those sitting around the table were sympathetic, but Dulce looked as if she was ready to break into tears.

    77

    From now on, I think it's best you stay around the house.

    78

    Giddon closed the door, and Lisa waved to Connie as he walked around the front of the car.

    79

    Giddon paid no attention to the three at the pool, patting Diablo's nose and talking softly to him as if no one was around.

    80

    Glancing around to see if Yancey was gone, she spotted him disappearing around the bend, on his way to the house.

    81

    Goose bumps rose all over her body, and he dried her as quickly as he could before draping a bathrobe around her.

    82

    Grabbing an armful of the hay they had packed around the supplies in each wagon, she dropped it on the sand and the mules eagerly began devouring it.

    83

    Half dozen people were huddled around several monitors.

    84

    Hands shaking, she looked around the car's interior for a cell.

    85

    Hard life is a short life, for most folks around here.

    86

    Have you got folks around here?

    87

    He always was riding around on his bicycle.

    88

    He can't stand to sit around and do nothing.

    89

    He clamped a hand around the back of her neck and yanked her to her feet.

    90

    He didn't stick around the campground much; always off at weird hours.

    91

    He ducked a fist and maneuvered around a kick, snatching the intruder's body and shoving it into the wall.

    92

    He felt panic bubble within him as he looked around.

    93

    He glanced around sharply.

    94

    He glanced around the pool and lifted his upper lip in disdain.

    95

    He glanced around the room and his troubled gaze halted on her.

    96

    He glanced up as she entered and turned the photo around so that she could see the picture.

    97

    He grabbed her arm and turned her around to face him.

    98

    He grinned, the expression creating little lines around his sparkling blue eyes.

    99

    He had a feeling she wasn't sticking around and wondered what had alerted her.

    100

    He had Papaw's face, with wrinkles around his eyes and a kind smile.

    101

    He has these god-awful nightmares and wakes me up thrashing around.

    102

    He held her gaze, struck by the aura of power around her.

    103

    He hesitated then wrapped his arms around her, resting his cheek against her head.

    104

    He jerked her around and grabbed her shoulders roughly.

    105

    He jerked his head around and stared at her.

    106

    He led the horse around and they left the ravine, traveling at right angles to the path the Indians had taken.

    107

    He left, and she gazed at the plates full of cookies around the kitchen.

    108

    He locked it and looked around.

    109

    He looked around, at once irritated.

    110

    He maneuvered the car around the sharp turn.

    111

    He maneuvered the team around a big stump.

    112

    He needed a written map to perform simple chores like finding a grocery store or getting around Boston.

    113

    He needs you to bring him around from robot-mode.

    114

    He never got around to the guy who tried to enter Ethel Reagan's apartment.

    115

    He put an arm around her shoulders, his gaze warm and admiring.

    116

    He put an arm around her shoulders.

    117

    He put an arm around her waist and kissed her cheek.

    118

    He reached into his pocket to wrap his hand around the orb.

    119

    He released her and pulled free the necklace around his neck.

    120

    He sat and looked around.

    121

    He sat, surprising Bianca, who wrapped her arms around him.

    122

    He scowled at their tracks, visible all the way back around the dune.

    123

    He secured the back of the van, looked around, and actually smiled back at the camera.

    124

    He slammed the door and strode purposefully around to the other side, jerking the driver's side door open.

    125

    He sorted around through the sand and finally motioned for her to follow.

    126

    He stared down at his cup and swirled the coffee around absently.

    127

    He started the engine and she clamped her arms around him, clinging to him as he spun the tires in a spray of pebbles and rocks.

    128

    He stepped around her and remained silent all the way to the ATV.

    129

    He stepped closer, slipping his other hand around her waist, and pulled her gently against him.

    130

    He strode around to her side of the car and opened the door for her.

    131

    He studied his cup of coffee, swishing the liquid around in it absently.

    132

    He swept her around.

    133

    He thinks it is beneath his dignity to help around the house and watch the kids.

    134

    He thought that a wonderful light was shining around him.

    135

    He Transported himself into Yully's room and looked around briefly before stepping into the quiet hallway.

    136

    He turned around and hugged her hard.

    137

    He turned his horse around.

    138

    He turned to Cynthia, awkwardly shifting him around so she could take him.

    139

    He turned to one of the men standing around the stage office and indicated Darcie with a wave of his hand.

    140

    He walked around it and then leaned down to look in the window.

    141

    He was no more expressive around Mary than anyone else, but he often asked her opinion on things.

    142

    He wasn't happy to be left out of the loop but at least he believed me and came around.

    143

    He waved as he turned it around to leave.

    144

    He won't talk to me, but he isn't slamming anything around.

    145

    He wrapped her arm around her throat as he pulled her into his body and held her there with an arm across her chest.

    146

    He wrapped one arm around her tightly.

    147

    He wrapped the reins around the break and stepped over to greet Darcie.

    148

    He'd messed around with Jenn only a few hours earlier and already felt the need to unwind again.

    149

    He'll limp around for a week or so and then he'll be fine.

    150

    He's registered but I wouldn't be afraid to spend the night around him.

    151

    Heat waves blurred the dunes around them.

    152

    Her arms slid around his neck of their own volition and she pressed close to him passionately returning his affection.

    153

    Her arms stole around his neck and she ran trembling fingers through the soft hair on the back of his head.

    154

    Her cheeks were streaked with tears, her green eyes showing her torment and her magic like a halo around her.

    155

    Her conversation with Jenn made the world around her more concrete.

    156

    Her father returned around noon, his agitation apparent the moment he stepped in the door.

    157

    Her gaze went to the lawn around her.

    158

    Her heart pounding, she turned the car around and drove back towards the dueling men.

    159

    Her skin was caramel, her long brown hair falling in fat ringlets around her elfin features.

    160

    Her whispered calls for Bordeaux received no response so she felt around in the darkness.

    161

    Her words lit his blood on fire, and he eased her back against the couch, their magics swirling around them.

    162

    His brother, Darian, however, tended to follow her around like a lost puppy.

    163

    His eyes seemed to swirl, around and around, changing from the color of her mother's tulips to a color almost as dark as the night.

    164

    His fingers closed around her arm and he firmly pulled her back.

    165

    His hand grazed her as he reached around her for a set of keys she hadn't noticed on the counter.

    166

    His hands touched her waist and then he slipped his arms around her from behind and drew her back against his chest.

    167

    His strong arms wrapped around her and he kissed her forehead.

    168

    His tingling senses awoke him, but he was too weak to do more than look around the room.

    169

    His warm hands slid around her waist, pulling her back against him.

    170

    Horses were moving around on the ledge above, their hooves clicking against the rocks.

    171

    How can you eat around that thing, boss?

    172

    Howie kept us in suspense until we assumed our seats around the table.

    173

    I cleaned up a few paper details and left the office for home, driving around town the long way, just to clear my head.

    174

    I crossed my fingers, at least mentally, and asked, "Was he around when Annie was abducted?"

    175

    I cursed myself for not bringing a flashlight as I felt around the walls for a light switch.

    176

    I didn't grow up around here like you, and I don't intend to spend the rest of my life working at the diner.

    177

    I drove slowly around the circle to make sure the site previously occupied by the California motor home was indeed vacant.

    178

    I felt like a zombie, being led around aimlessly.

    179

    I fished around in the kitchen for matches.

    180

    I guess we could say he hasn't been around much.

    181

    I have to mull it around in my head a bit more if you don't mind.

    182

    I immediately knew where I was; on the carousel because I was spinning slowly around while blue and red lights revolved around the room.

    183

    I just found out my father's running around killing people, and you expect me to trust a stranger when I don't even know if I can trust him anymore?

    184

    I know it's him; he was riding around on his electric bike.

    185

    I listened, as tight as a bow string as Howie narrated in a whispered voice as he was patrolling around the house.

    186

    I looked around for Betsy.

    187

    I made myself comfortable on the sofa, my arm around Betsy, as we all waited for him to continue.

    188

    I miss that and I'm not going to be held back simply because you're afraid to have me wandering around on my own.

    189

    I missed him when he wasn't around.

    190

    I must have cried out as everyone crowded around the single viewing unit.

    191

    I need a larger house for my family and I can't afford the prices around here.

    192

    I put my arm around her and walked her to the bedroom.

    193

    I put my arm around her.

    194

    I put my arms around her but I didn't know what to say.

    195

    I really am the only one with sense around here.

    196

    I staggered back to my room, away from the contented people playing around the pool, not wanting them to see me in tears.

    197

    I started asking around, but no one would tell me, so I-- " "Jonny!" he barked.

    198

    I think I'll prowl around town on such a nice night.

    199

    I think most people around the world will seek personal excellence.

    200

    I thought about asking Martha; she was around some when I was growing up.

    201

    I thought about what my wife said as I looked around our beautiful property.

    202

    I thought everybody around here knew about the Cade's.

    203

    I was awoken by the gunshot and both of us drove the roads around the perimeter of the property but neither heard nor saw his vehicle.

    204

    I was in a small town, on the main street with cars and people all around.

    205

    I went around back because Howie said the key he left with us fit the back door.

    206

    I'd like you or your people to check every medical facility in and around Cleveland.

    207

    I'll do a little prowling around to sort out the players before I strike.

    208

    I'll stick around here and telephone Howie.

    209

    I'm just learning my way around the internet at this level but Brennan's people could do it in a minute.

    210

    I'm mayor now, until we get around to having an election.

    211

    I'm not from around here.

    212

    I'm not sure I have enough chores around here to keep her busy.

    213

    I'm not sure who started that story, but it floated around here for my last two years of high school.

    214

    I'm sure there's some lighter fluid around here but your grill is gas so you don't need it.

    215

    If you don't like the weather, hang around until this afternoon.

    216

    Iggy found a temporary solution to stop the spread, and I sealed the area around the town.

    217

    Iggy looked around, dismayed.

    218

    In a city that never sleeps, with a melting pot of every culture in the world, it is easy to find food from around the planet.

    219

    In another flash of lightning, she saw a form dart from the hallway, around the stunned crowd, towards her.

    220

    In any case, Bordeaux slipped a comforting arm around her shoulders.

    221

    In the hall beyond, most of the murmured conversation was taking place as feet tromped around the house.

    222

    Inside, she closed the door and looked around.

    223

    Instantly a strong arm gripped her around the waist.

    224

    Instantly his hands came up to her elbows, forcing her arms around his neck.

    225

    Instead, he wrapped his arms around her in a tight hug.

    226

    Is he still around?

    227

    It all appeared innocent until her feet touched the ground, and then he pulled her close, wrapping his arms around her as his lips sought hers hungrily.

    228

    It can't be any more dangerous than driving around in Tulsa.

    229

    It flipped her hair and swirled around her.

    230

    It gets kinda crazy around here, doesn't it?

    231

    It is almost no effort for me to row around the lake, no matter how heavy the load may be.

    232

    It took some getting used to moving around.

    233

    It was a subtle shift, an undercurrent of cool energy that brushed by him, like when Sofi used her voodoo fortune-telling powers around him.

    234

    It was as if I hadn't had time to come to grips with that tragedy with the world wind swirling around me.

    235

    It was fun having Molly around.

    236

    It was of small dimensions, with a peaked cottage roof, and not much else to be seen, the dirt being raised five feet all around as if it were a compost heap.

    237

    It was simple enough to wander around outside, as if she were looking for something.

    238

    It was wandering around, getting close to Destiny.

    239

    It's the same old wolf that has been skulking around here all winter.

    240

    Jonny glanced around the room, his hesitation giving more than one vamp confidence to draw their weapons openly.

    241

    Jonny opened his eyes, and the red ring around his irises was gone.

    242

    Jonny's form disappeared around a corner as she emerged, and she trotted after him.

    243

    Jule looked around the cozy house.

    244

    Jule looked around Yully's room, trying to digest everything he was learning about himself.

    245

    Jule positioned them around his body.

    246

    Jule wrapped his arms around her.

    247

    Jule, whose soul had somehow lingered in her body when she'd touched him, and who had become the only man she'd ever felt safe around.

    248

    Jule's eyes glinted with the magic in his body, and the air around him shimmered in a different power than that of her father.

    249

    Julie swung around and glared at Rachel.

    250

    Kids fooling around with Ouija on a rainy day.

    251

    Kissing his chin, she worked her way around to his cheek.

    252

    Lake Erie sits north of Ohio for a long stretch so to get into Canada going east; he'd enter in New York State, around Niagara Falls.

    253

    Light and dark seemed to bend to avoid him, leaving a haze around his body.

    254

    Lightning flashed around them and thunder rumbled.

    255

    Lisa jerked her head around and glared at him, but his attention was fully absorbed by the destruction.

    256

    Lisa swung around and stared at Connie.

    257

    Look, I was only fooling around.

    258

    Looking around, she realized why the tiny living room was so familiar.

    259

    Lots of dangerous trails look inviting around here.

    260

    Maneuvering the car around skillfully, he started back up the road.

    261

    Martha asked as she passed around butter and syrup.

    262

    Martha had a plate full of pancakes ready so we all sat around the large table.

    263

    Martha shouted, throwing her arms around my neck and kissing me on the lips while I still clung on to my steering wheel.

    264

    Maybe you'd like to stick around here for a while to see if they show up.

    265

    Melvyn's also boasts two world-class wine cellars with premium vintages from around the world.

    266

    Michael turned around and came back to her.

    267

    Molly appeared less shy around Howie than us, acting more casual toward him as if he was a member of her family.

    268

    Molly is fun to be around, chatty and inquisitive and far less reserved than at our first meeting.

    269

    Moonlight and darkness alike bent and danced around him, surrounding him in a hazy metallic shimmer.

    270

    Mrs. Marsh burst into a fresh bout of tears, and Brandon put an arm around her, his own eyes growing misty.

    271

    No need to play around with stupid 1930 history.

    272

    No one was around, so she decided to explore the path.

    273

    No, I'm afraid I didn't get around to it yet.

    274

    No. I just hedged around his questions.

    275

    No. We have to stick around and run Econ.

    276

    Nobody following you or creeping around?

    277

    Nothing existed around her during that time but numbness.

    278

    Of course, what goes on between you two in this big lonely house when no one else is around is between the two of you.

    279

    Oh yeah, you weren't around here then.

    280

    Ohio holds hiking trails, campgrounds and ski hills traversed by travelers from around the world.

    281

    Once she was settled in the seat, he shut the door and walked around the car to the driver's side.

    282

    One arm tightened around her in a light hug, and then he released her, striding away after a screwdriver.

    283

    One evening, close to suppertime, Lisa, Tammy and Sarah were lounging around the pool.

    284

    One hand on her waist, the other holding hers lightly, he gracefully swept her around.

    285

    Otto goes to every bar around that has trivia night and drinks for free.

    286

    Our cases were scattered around the country with most jurisdictions receiving our tip for the first time.

    287

    Our GPS guided us up and down and around and around for the next hour and a half.

    288

    Outside, she stood on the porch a few minutes, studying the mountains around them.

    289

    Overjoyed at her response, he sat cross-legged, hunched over the only lifeline the thousands of innocent people around him had.

    290

    People gathered around them to ask questions.

    291

    Put your name in for a reservation at the restaurant and then take a walk around the neighboring historic buildings and woods.

    292

    Quinn could poke around with his experiments on his own time as he'd done all summer.

    293

    Quinn made me listen to the details of each unsuccessful attempt before he finally, got around to the facts.

    294

    Quinn sits around knowing what we're doing, and the world is treating him like some minor failed unemployed scientist.

    295

    Recovering in an ungraceful manner, she marched to her room, glad he wasn't around to laugh.

    296

    Sailing, swimming, jet skiing, parasailing and hiking are all available activities around the city.

    297

    She ached for him, and the magic thrummed around her, echoing her loneliness.

    298

    She blushed and glanced around the table.

    299

    She breathed in nothing but water and panicked, clawing at the arm wrapped around her.

    300

    She carefully drew the outline of a truck around the words on the top.

    301

    She clamped her arms around his waist again.

    302

    She closed her eyes and said another prayer before she clamped a sweaty hand around the cold door handle.

    303

    She could now feel everything around her, and she assumed whatever her father unlocked was the cause.

    304

    She couldn't explain the sense that she didn't belong despite the pictures of her and Jonny on the walls and all her things sprinkled around the room.

    305

    She darted around him and ran for the door, but he caught her half way.

    306

    She darted to the Other and threw her arms around him.

    307

    She felt his breath on the back of her neck and stiffened as one arm slipped around her waist.

    308

    She fingered the coin around her neck as she lay before the fire.

    309

    She fled around him and into the car, locking the doors and speeding away from the cottage.

    310

    She flung her arms around him, the sweet smell of innocence and softness of her body making him melt.

    311

    She flung her arms around him.

    312

    She found herself hurrying around him to the couch at his low growl and suspected he wasn't someone who ever repeated anything.

    313

    She glanced around at the arid camp, taking in the dusty tents and scraggly cacti..

    314

    She glanced around at the rock outcroppings.

    315

    She glanced around for some kind of weapon as they walked, and soon came up with a walking stick.

    316

    She glanced around nervously.

    317

    She glanced around the dimly lit room, desperately searching for a way out.

    318

    She glanced around the kitchen, knowing she should familiarize herself before breakfast, but feeling uncomfortable about exploring so soon after her arrival.

    319

    She glanced around the room again and did a double take when she saw the man in a dark brown suit.

    320

    She glanced around the room anxiously.

    321

    She glanced around, a little disoriented.

    322

    She glanced around, counting mules.

    323

    She glanced around, noting several objects covered with cloths, as well as a box that sat on a table beside the door.

    324

    She glanced down at the towel tucked around his midsection and gasped.

    325

    She gripped him around the waist, wishing she could crush the breath from him.

    326

    She had a wild urge to throw her arms around his neck and kiss the worry from his face.

    327

    She helped Betsy in the kitchen and hovered around Bumpus like a hen with chicks.

    328

    She hopped down, oblivious to the attention channeled her way by the red-eyed men around her.

    329

    She knew better than to relax around her father, whose hand was likely to fly at the drop of a hat.

    330

    She leaned forward and draped her arms around the horse's shoulders.

    331

    She looked around at the quiet foyer of a massive house.

    332

    She looked around, curious as to why such a popular site was so quiet.

    333

    She looked around, disoriented.

    334

    She looked around, surprised not everyone shared her enthusiasm.

    335

    She looked unsettled at the idea of leaving her lab and looked around, as if trying to figure out what to take.

    336

    She looked up at Darian a short distance away, watching his dark-light power streak around the room.

    337

    She mounted the ATV behind him and hesitated before putting her arms around his waist.

    338

    She moved around him with the tray.

    339

    She moved between Adrienne and Brandon, and put an arm around each of their shoulders.

    340

    She moved past him and gingerly felt behind the stove until her fingers closed around the shaker.

    341

    She peeked around the door again just in time to see him walk into the office and close the door.

    342

    She placed the medallion around her neck and admired it in the mirror, vowing not to think of the man whose presence plagued her.

    343

    She pulled the blanket around her shoulders and curled into a shivering ball, staring through the window into the darkness.

    344

    She removed his Tux and shoes, rolling him around the bed in the process.

    345

    She rubbed her eyes and tilted her watch crystal around until the light reflected enough to read the dial.

    346

    She sat heavily, unable to fathom hundreds of people dying around her without her noticing.

    347

    She sat up and glanced around at the magnificent scenery.

    348

    She sat up, pulling the blanket around her nightgown and shivered.

    349

    She scooted closer to him, shifting the blanket so that she could drape the excess around his shoulders.

    350

    She searched around for a landmark that could be seen over the trees, but nothing was tall enough.

    351

    She slipped her arms around his neck and forced his lips down harder on her own.

    352

    She slipped her arms around his neck and whispered against his lips, "yes."

    353

    She slipped one arm around his neck and returned the kiss, answering his question.

    354

    She started down the path again, lifting her arms and spinning around.

    355

    She started to the table then stopped, unable to dismiss the feeling of the man's arms around her or what she'd felt when they touched.

    356

    She stayed around the house, propping her foot up whenever she sat down, and by evening it was only a little sore.

    357

    She stepped around him and headed for the house.

    358

    She stepped away from him, but he grabbed one arm, turning her around to face him.

    359

    She stood and glanced around the room again.

    360

    She stopped at a light and glanced at a shop to her right where some people were standing around talking.

    361

    She stretched and walked around, gradually gaining feeling in her legs.

    362

    She struggled, but he wrapped his arms around her in a hold she couldn't break.

    363

    She swished it around in her mouth to wash out the sand and then spit.

    364

    She swished the water around in the bottom, glancing at the water barrel.

    365

    She swung around and left the kitchen.

    366

    She swung around and stared at him.

    367

    She swung around to find Giddon watching Allen, his expression dark and brooding.

    368

    She swung her legs around and firmly planted her feet on the ground before accepting the hand he offered.

    369

    She threw her arms around his neck and pressed her cheek against him.

    370

    She tried to step around him, but he stopped her with an iron grip on her arm.

    371

    She turned around and picked up the lines.

    372

    She turned around and walked three steps before it hit her.

    373

    She wandered around the house with a foreboding that this was the last time she would see it.

    374

    She was just joking around, you know.

    375

    She was no stranger around the kitchen.

    376

    She was silently thanking the heavens for rescuing her, until one of the men in black entered the garage and began shooting the downed men a second time around.

    377

    She watched him tighten a strap around the horse's belly.

    378

    She whipped around, weapon pointed at Xander as he appeared through the doorway.

    379

    She whispered softly as she slipped her arms around his neck and returned his passionate kiss.

    380

    She wrapped her arms around her knees and closed her eyes for a brief rest.

    381

    She wrapped her arms around her knees and stared into the dusk.

    382

    She wrapped her hand around the doorknob and turned it from steel into a rag and pushed the door open.

    383

    She'd always felt comfortable around him.

    384

    She'd kept the flowers around Jonny's bed as fresh as the day they arrived last week.

    385

    She's been moping around every since you left.

    386

    So far she had never mentioned her excursions to the attic, but when things got too dull around the house, she went up to explore.

    387

    Some of the containers had a thin wire running around but most were standing alone.

    388

    Some people around her know of her ability and assist her but she alone has the gift.

    389

    Spring is around the corner.

    390

    Strong arms slipped around her waist, drawing her back against him.

    391

    Talon stumbled, and Dusty froze rather than pounced, his head whipping around.

    392

    Tammy turned around and pointed at the cake.

    393

    Tammy wrapped an arm around Lisa's neck and laid a soft curly head on her shoulder.

    394

    Tears stung her eyes as she brought her hand around and struck his other cheek with a ringing blow.

    395

    Tesla was messing around with this stuff at the turn of the last century.

    396

    The air around him hummed with energy and command.

    397

    The air around him rippled, reminding her he was as powerful as Damian.

    398

    The air around him was cold like it was around an air conditioning vent.

    399

    The air around Jenn had stilled, and she searched her gaze.

    400

    The boy looked around him with wondering eyes.

    401

    The car spun around at the bottom of the hill, spraying gravel in a wild circle.

    402

    The collection of well-defined sites was tastefully arranged around a circular loop with about thirty camp sites on both the inside and outside of the narrow roadway.

    403

    The condo smelled of breakfast, and he looked around, satisfied to find it clean again.

    404

    The conversation between her father and the man who should've killed her rattled around in her thoughts as she returned to the door.

    405

    The count looked around him.

    406

    The darkening shadows sharpened his features and highlighted the crows' feet around his eyes.

    407

    The devil looked around.

    408

    The energies flowing around her responded eagerly, and she molded and released them.

    409

    The fellow worker promised to dig around and telephone back.

    410

    The flames threw eerie lights into the sand around the wagons, but nothing moved.

    411

    The frozen sea beneath her feet was the color of tar, the black clouds above paused mid-swirl around a pop of blue sky in the storm's center.

    412

    The grass around the creek was new, giving it a velvety look.

    413

    The heat settled around them like a hot breath.

    414

    The hum around the Other assured Jule there was only one person in the alley without any sort of otherworldly power.

    415

    The intensity around him faded, and the air released her.

    416

    The land around it was rugged, with only a few fields in the midst of a vast forest.

    417

    The landscape around them was bleak, almost as devoid of plant life as the white sands had been.

    418

    The last thing I want is a half-dozen little brats running around here tearing things up.

    419

    The long drive detoured around several large oak trees before it ended in a circle.

    420

    The Magician looked around, confused, before recognition crossed her features.

    421

    The market features eateries from around the world, souvenir vendors and street performers in a colonial-style setting.

    422

    The men around her were roused by the sensations.

    423

    The more she learned about the way he thought, the more she was convinced that people around him were the strange ones, not Cade.

    424

    The neighbor we woke up says he's been around and he drives a dark blue van.

    425

    The plump woman nodded and hurried away, like everyone save her father did around her.

    426

    The rain had stopped, and the landscape around the graveyard was dotted with reflective pools.

    427

    The ranchers around here say they can always count on him to help when they're in a bind.

    428

    The sand lay white around them like a blanket of snow.

    429

    The slow motion world around them snapped into real time, throwing them against a wall.

    430

    The small car fishtailed around a curve, but she kept up the pace until she no longer saw the man in her rearview mirror.

    431

    The spidey senses that warned him when a vamp was around calmed until he no longer sensed Jonny.

    432

    The stoical Russell Cade was stammering around like a school boy.

    433

    The storm raged on around them and finally began to abate.

    434

    The trouble is, my ranch has been a safe haven and even headquarters for the wolf population around here.

    435

    The vamp whose neck he held had a look of horror on its face, and the air around them buzzed with magic.

    436

    The white sand blowing around looked like a Texas blizzard.

    437

    The world around them stopped-- literally.

    438

    Then his face engaged in a smile that created little wrinkles around his eyes and grooves in his cheeks.

    439

    Then I saw a figure get out of the car and creep around toward the back of the house.

    440

    Then the saint stopped speaking and looked around him.

    441

    Then, on Christmas morning when everyone is awake, we lounge around in our night clothes while we open presents.

    442

    There are a zillion fast food restaurants around here.

    443

    There used to be houses around here long time ago.

    444

    There was a plate of cookies on the counter and the scent of dinner lingering around the oven.

    445

    There was enough to do around here and she intended to earn her pay - without supervision.

    446

    There was no need to hold on to her, but his arm around her waist was welcome all the same.

    447

    There were a lot of tourists in town, probably for the autumn equinox, which drew people from around the world every year.

    448

    There were lots of businesses and folks came out of the hollows from miles around to shop.

    449

    There's a new term floating around; crystal ball search warrant.

    450

    These restaurants satisfy your hunger while allowing you to enjoy seafood dishes from around the world.

    451

    They all looked around, but the piglets had disappeared.

    452

    They are in little pockets all around the edge of this cavern.

    453

    They ate in silence then, enjoying the tranquility of mother natures' work around them.

    454

    They both tiptoed around the sexual attraction between them, and her face was flushed again.

    455

    They cautiously crept around the dune.

    456

    They won't expect us to go that way, and we can move around in the lava field without leaving tracks.

    457

    Things are unsettled around here.

    458

    This act he repeated until all of the nine tiny piglets were visible, and they were so glad to get out of his pocket that they ran around in a very lively manner.

    459

    This time she stretched her arms around his waist without hesitation.

    460

    This time they were on the balcony, gazing into the night, his arm around her waist.

    461

    This Volt-Wheel has been around a half dozen years.

    462

    Those around him moved away, and those on a path towards his side of the hall changed their minds and turned around.

    463

    Troubled, she toyed with the necklace around her throat.

    464

    Turning the truck around, he headed back down the drive.

    465

    Unable to find her voice, she hurried around him to the table where she'd left her coat.

    466

    Unhurt, she would have no fear of wandering around to find her way, but her injury prevented any exploration.

    467

    Until that point, eminent success lay just around the corner; now, absent any leads, a wave of despair descended over me like a blanket of morning fog.

    468

    We asked if there was anyone around who might still be living who would remember that far back.

    469

    We can't have a gang hanging around a phone booth.

    470

    We chatted amicably around the oak table, laughing at each other's stories.

    471

    We didn't get around to the other one; the newspaper lady.

    472

    We researched tip lines in an effort to spread around our contacts.

    473

    We showed his picture around but the best answer was he looked familiar.

    474

    We will discuss the molecular machines called nanites—tiny, molecular-sized robots that will swim around in your body fighting disease, repairing damage, and alerting you to problems (and will likely dramatically increase the human lifespan).

    475

    We've got patrols around-- " "Speck doesn't understand that if even a mosquito leaves the town, there's no way we can stop the spread!"

    476

    We've skated around saying nothing since Ben played us Mr. Cooms' conversation.

    477

    When I saw you standing there in the road, so beautiful, your hair flowing around you like morning mist, I couldn't let you walk away.

    478

    When Mary answered, Cynthia stammered around about the weather and every other subject she could think of.

    479

    When she decided Yancey wasn't around, she started down the path, keeping close to the trees without breaking her promise not to wander in the woods.

    480

    When the meal was over, I sought him out in the main room while the other crowded around the kitchen cleaning up.

    481

    While Molly looked troubled when she returned, Bumpus was just the opposite, hopping around like he'd just retrieved a ball and would win a reward.

    482

    Why did they have to sneak around?

    483

    Winding the reins around the saddle horn, he shook out his rope and tied it to the bridle.

    484

    Wrapping his arms around her in a bear hug, he all but dragged her down the hall.

    485

    Wrapping his arms around her, he sighed deeply.

    486

    Yancey didn't get out, but he did wait until she had her car started before he turned his car around and headed back to the house.

    487

    Yancey put his glass down and stood, moving around the table to take her by the arm.

    488

    Yancey swirled her around and leaned his head down, speaking in a low voice.

    489

    Yes. I just can't stand sitting around.

    490

    You don't do anything but sit around and stare.

    491

    You must be getting bored around here.

    492

    You reckon them Injuns knew we was around?

    493

    You start that and he'll hang around for sure.

    494

    You're in no condition to run around town.

    495

    You're the best friend I've ever had and things around here could never be the same without you.

    496

    You've been around that furry thing so long that you're beginning to look like him.

    497

    Yully eased away as he placed it around her neck.

    498

    Yully looked around curiously, not recognizing the sloping hill before them.

    499

    Yully opened the door and looked around wildly.

    500

    Yully watched him, alerted by the same sense of uneasiness she felt around her father lately.
