eyebrows wiggle and Susie slaps his arm playfully.
    ‘Or you could take me home Cameron, and
leave Simon here to entertain her,’ Simon hugs Susie, ‘you have only seen her
from across the bar anyway,’ she states to her boyfriend.
    ‘Believe me, there is no other woman for
me, Suze,’ he nuzzles her neck playfully and she grins, despite herself.

    Lucy texts Susie as the cab drives into
the golf club grounds.
    Hi, I am outside!
     As she is paying the driver the text
pings a reply,
    Great! I am on my way out.
     I exit the car and nervously run my
hands down my dress.  I chose a powder blue short dress plain but stylish
scooping at the neck reaching mid-thigh.  I team it with my silver heels and
bag and straighten my hair down my back.
    ‘Hi!’ Susie screeches as she hugs me,
‘wow, you look great!’ she gushes.
    ‘So do you!’ I reply genuinely, Susie has
dressed in a short, black number, her blonde hair swept up into an up do, she looks fantastic!
    ‘Thank you, come on let’s get a drink!’
she insists, moving us inside the huge building.
    We move directly to the bar and order our
drinks.  When they arrive we chink glasses, ‘cheers!’ I call.
    ‘Cheers!’ Susie repeats and we stand for
a moment sipping our drinks, ‘come on, let’s find the guys,’ Susie instructs,
collecting her belongings from the bar.
    ‘Erm, just to recap Suze.  I thought we
had agreed, I would just accompany you and you were not going to set me up,’ I
scold gently, as I take another sip of my wine.
    ‘Well, I couldn’t have agreed more until
right now. Lucy good to see you again,’ a deep voice shudders through me
sending me spluttering, as I choke on my wine.
    ‘Shit!’ I curse, as I attempt to regain
my composure wiping the dribble of wine off of my chin in a most unladylike
manner.
    ‘You two know each other?’ Susie
questions, surprise etching from her pretty face.
    ‘We do.’ Cameron confirms, his voice
filled with amusement, ‘in fact we are quite intimate Lucy, wouldn’t you say?’
    I gather my wits and turn to Cameron,
placing a polite smile on my face, ‘good to see you again, Cameron.’ I soothe,
as calmly as possible, as I glance up into his handsome face.
    ‘You are looking as delicious as the
first time I met you, Lucy,’ his mouth turns up slightly, his eyes alight with
amusement, ‘no strike that, you don’t - although you do look stunning,’ he
bends and kisses my cheek.
    I flush several shades of red before Susie
rescues me, ‘stop teasing Cam, how do you two know each other?’
    ‘We literally bumped into each other as
he was leaving my housemates bedroom, one morning.’ I announce, sweetly.
    ‘Ah,’ Susie grimaces, but I throw her a
reassuring smile.
    ‘Hmmm,’ Cameron hums, as if the memory is
providing an unforgettable flashback and I frown at him.
    ‘Well, I am sure that Sam would be
willing to partake in a rerun if it was that pleasurable,’ I offer smoothly.
    ‘No thank you, the pleasurable event took
place as I was leaving her bedroom,’ he mutters unaffected by my cattiness.
    He looks sexy as hell in a blue suit, and
white shirt, his chin slightly shadowed by his stubble.  His blue eyes,
penetrate mine and my insides flutter at the eye contact.  I once again feel my
face flush as I avert my gaze and take another gulp of the wine.
    ‘So……’ Susie calls, ‘Lucy, you are obviously
acquainted with Cameron, this is my other half Simon,’ she gestures towards a
tall man, with brown hair and friendly brown eyes that appears beside her.
    ‘Hi Lucy, I have heard a lot about you,’
he takes my hand and places a kiss on my cheek.
    ‘Hi Simon, likewise,’ I smile genuinely,
‘it’s lovely to meet you.’
    The event is a presentation evening and
buffet, followed by a local band.   We are standing chatting, well Susie and
Simon are doing most of the talking, I am smiling and recovering from the shock
that Cameron is once again in my company.  I have
