“If it’s no problem with you, I’ll come round and grab you in... say about an hour’s time? My parents have left me their car while they’re over in Europe,” you tell Katherine.
“Sure that sounds great. Also if you want, bring and pair of bathers. We’ve just had our spa changed over to a heat one. Could be nice to have a soak after dancing for a few hours,” she tells you. The thought of relaxing in a nice hot spa with Kat is an offer too good to refuse. You almost wish this dance was over and done with already.
“Not to worry, ill bring something to change into. Was there anything you wanted me to bring? I could stop of at the shops on my way over.’’
“Umm,” Katherine takes a few moments to ponder the offer before replying. “If it’s not to much of a hassle, could you pick up something for us to drink. My parents don’t keep anything alcoholic in the house.”
You say your good-byes and agree to stop off for some drinks. You bum around the house for half an hour or so, listen to some music and check the score on the game, before heading out.
You follow the direction Katherine gave you on the phone and are almost there when you decide to get something to eat, having not eaten since breakfast. You pull into a Burger King drive through and order a meal deal from the menu. You quickly polish off the burger and are well into the fries when you spot a liquor store across the street from the drive through. You make your way into the shop and have a think of what to get. A couple of beers will do you and you decide to get a few of the premixed drinks that ladies seem to like. You’re about to pay the cashier when you decide lash out on a little something special. With the money from the Korn ticket you can also afford a reasonable bottle of champagne for Katherine and yourself. All purchases complete you leave and drive the rest of the distance to Kat’s house.
You find the front door open and slightly ajar. You knock loudly and call out to see if anyone is at home. “I’m here,” you hear Katherine’s voice call out from the depths of the house. “Just let yourself in and I’ll be ready in a couple of minuets.”
You walk into the front room of the house and have a bit of a look around. Katherine’s parents are reasonable well off, like yours, so the room is very well appointed and tastefully decorated. A couple of minuets pass and you hear Katherine once again call out, “Do you think you could give me a hand? I’m upstairs in the bathroom.”
You place the drinks on the table by the entrance and follow the direction of her voice. You think you have found which door is the bathroom and knock. “Come in,” is the reply and you open the door. |
