Wild Child - parts 26 - 30

- 26 -1

When Angie woke up the following morning, she wasn’t quite sure where she was, she turned over and looked straight into Bruce’s smiling face, “Good morning beautiful, how did you sleep?”2

“Good morning,” she replied as she stretched, “I slept very well thank you, and you?”3

“Never better.”4

“I just want to thank you for a lovely evening, but I really must be off.”5

“Why?”6

“I wouldn’t want to start a rumour.”7

“Like what?”8

“Look there she’s the one who slept with the owner.”9

“Who cares?  The patrons don’t know who I am other than Number fifteen, and the personnel get paid enough not to talk!”10

‘I suppose you’re right, but I still have to get back to the chalet and Shanz.”11

“I told you last night, don’t worry about her, she’ll be fine.”12

“I know what you told me, I would still like to get back there, even if it is only to change.  Anyway, how would you know how she is?”13

“I make it my business to know everything about everyone that comes here.”14

“Okay, let’s test your knowledge.”15

“Great, now what do I get if I get the answers right?”16

“We’ll have to see.  First question.”17

“Hold on a second, how many questions are there?”18

“Never mind how many, I’ll decide as we go along.”19

“First, what’s mine and Shanz’s star signs?”20

“That actually two questions in one, but I’ll let it pass.  Your star sign is Sagittarius, your birth date is the third of December and the year is . . .”21

“Never mind the year!”  Angie snapped, “that’s privileged information.  What about Shanz?”22

“She is Leo, born the nineteenth of August, I’ll give the year a skip.”23

“Okay so you’ve proven your point.”24

“Now all that remains is the matter of what do I get in return for knowing such intimate details?”25

“Well that would depend entirely on what you like, dislike, and what you want to do.”26

“I see I have met a woman who manages to switch the responsibility of what to do over to a man, how original.”27

“It’s commonly known as reverse psychology!”28

“And she changes the subject.  Now what I want is for you to move into the main house for the duration of your stay here.”29

“Thanks for the offer, I am however going to have to decline.  Try something else.”30

“How about something completely different?”31

“Different, how?”  Angie asked dubiously.32

“The carnival is in town . . .”33

“The carnival?  I’d love to go but if you remember I am here with Shanz.”34

“Bring her with.”35

“Are you sure, you won’t mind having my friend along?”36

“Would I offer if I wasn’t?”37

“Good point.  What time shall we be ready?”38

“Six?”39

“Make it seven and you have a date.”  Angie commented as she draped the discarded robe around her body and made her way back to Chanette and the chalet.  40

The door was opened before she had managed to raise her hand to knock.41

“And where the fuck have you been?  I was worried sick about you.  Do you have any idea what the time is?”42

“Un-knot your knickers for a second will ya.  I was told that you would be informed as to where I was.” Angie defended herself as she walked over the threshold.43

“I was told that you would be having dinner with someone and that I shouldn’t worry, and I can order anything I want from room service.”44

“So what’s so bad about that?”45

“Perhaps I wanted to spend some time with you!  Did that even cross your mind?”46

“Shanz, it wasn’t my idea okay.”  Angie said as she wandered into the bathroom and was confronted by a strange woman.47

“Hi I’m Caitlin.”48

“Angie, this is Caitlin.  Caitlin, this is Angie, my inconsiderate friend.”49

“Bitch!”  Was all that Angie spat out.50

“I can see why Bruce wanted to spend time with you.”  Caitlin added her say into the conversation.51

“Who the fuck is Bruce?”  Chanette asked.52

“The owner,” Angie explained.53

“Bruce owns the resort,” Caitlin confirmed.54

“You really know how to pick them don’t you?”  Chanette commented.55

“It’s not like that,” Angie defended herself once again.  “He arranged the whole thing last night, not me, and he'll be here at seven tonight to pick us up for the carnival.”56

“What up with this ‘us’ story?  I’ve already made other plans for tonight.  I thought two can play your game.”57

“What plans?” Angie asked trying to hide the jealously in her voice.58

“She’s spending another night with me,” Caitlin answered sheepishly.59

“Another night?”  Angie was confused.60

“Bruce tends to take care of his patrons, especially those he takes a personal interest in.”61

“So what does that make me, another notch on his headboard?”62

“No not at all.  In all the years I’ve been here, I’ve never know him to get involved with anyone outside the restaurant.”63

“Hello!  Does anyone here remember me?”  Chanette was whining.  “Who is he?”64

“Chanette darling, I hate to do a hit and run on you, but I really must get going, I have a shit load to do today.” Caitlin said, giving Chanette a kiss on the lips and dashing out the door.65

“Okay sweetie, see you later,” Chanette said behind her.  66

Turning to Angie, placing her hands on her hips and doing her best angry Principal impression she demanded, “Okay Missy! Now it’s you and me!  Who the hell is Bruce and where did you manage to meet him?”67

“Remember yesterday at the restaurant?”68

“What about it?”69

“Do you remember Number Fifteen?”70

“Donut boy?”71

“Yes him.  Well Bruce is exactly like him.”72

“Meaning?”73

“Shanz, sometimes you are so dense!  Bruce is number fifteen.”74

“So let me see if I understand this, not only does he own the place but he works here to?”75

“Now you’ve got it.”76

“Strange.”77

“I could say the same about Caitlin.”78

“I must admit I don’t know who was more shocked, when I answered the door all in the nude.  I was expecting to open for you and instead Caitlin was standing there.”79

“What did she say?”80

“She told me that you had been invited for a private dinner, and that she was sent to distract me for a while.”81

“And you believed her?”82

“Angie, I was standing here in my birthday suite, and this drop dead gorgeous bird tells me she’s been sent to distract me.  What do you think?”83

“True.  So tell me, did she distract you?”84

“What do you think?”85

“Never mind, I can see we’ll end up playing cat and mouse games like this.”86

“What have you got planned for the rest of the day?”87

“We could go to the pool, or the gym, or whatever blows your hair wild.”88

“How about sleep?  I didn’t get any last night.”89

“Worrying about me I suppose?”  Angie asked facetiously.90

“Well . . .”91

“Sleep if you want to sleep.  I’m going to the gym.”  92

- 27 -93

Angie was on her way to the gym when she heard footsteps behind her, followed by a whisper.94

“Hey lover.”95

“Hi,” Angie answered.96

“Where are you off to?”97

“You know everything about everyone, so you tell me.”98

“Just guessing, but by the way you are dressed I would assume the gym.”99

“My aren’t we clever?”100

“Are we still on for tonight?”101

“Uh-huh, but Shanz wont be joining us, she has other plans.”102

“In other words Caitlin has done her job perfectly.”103

“Meaning?”104

“Cat is in head of P.R.”105

“Is she now?  And what exactly was her job description with Shanz?”106

“To relay my message and see that she was well taken care of in your absence.”107

“And I’m meant to believe that?  When I got to the chalet Cat was still there, and you want me to believe she was meant to deliver an innocent message?”108

“All I did was ask her to deliver my message, with all good intentions.  What she does over and above that is entirely up to her, and by the sounds of it there are no complaints from Chanette.”109

“Fine.  I’ll see you later.  You probably have some entertaining of you own to do.”  Angie cut him off and went off in another direction.  110

She was more than a little irate that Bruce would use Caitlin to seduce her friend.  She was in the second round on the circuit in the gym when she heard her name being called out.  She turned around and was faced by Caitlin.111

“Angie, I couldn’t help overhear you and Bruce arguing earlier.”112

“So does P.R. cover eavesdropping as well?”113

“No.  I happened to be walking behind you when you were discussing Nett.”114

“Nett?  I’m impressed, absolutely no body is allowed to call her Nett.  You must be great at what you do.”115

“Will you bite you tongue and listen to me for a minute?  Bruce sent me to the chalet to relay the message.  When I got there Nett, Chanette, answered the door obviously expecting to see you, and got highly embarrassed when it turned out to be me instead.  I apologised for the mistake and gave her the message as requested.  She invited me in for a drink, and seeing that she had the opportunity to order what she wanted from room service, she invited me to dinner.  Things just developed from there and, the rest as they say is history.”116

“History?  To the point of no sleep?”117

“Yes to the point of no sleep.  She’s one amazing woman, It’s been a long time since I was in the company of some one I could talk to so freely.  I didn’t realise I was imposing.”118

“You’re not imposing, I’m just very protective over her.”119

“Angie, she’s a big girl and can take care of herself.”120

“I know she’s a big girl, I’m just warning you, she’s like a sister to me. Hurt her and you hurt me, and trust me I don’t have a high pain threshold.” Angie warned.121

“I don’t intend hurting anyone, we just had a really good time together, and I hope to have a good time again tonight.  By the way, what time is Bruce supposed to pick you up?”122

“Not that it has anything to do with you.  At this point in time, I’m not even sure that I’m going with tonight.”123

“I’m only asking, because as he makes it his business to know everything about his patrons.  I have to make it my business to know what he is up to, and the reason I’m asking what time he is to pick you up is so that I can make a note in his diary.”124

“Theoretically at seven, or didn’t you hear me tell Shanz?”125

“I told you I don’t make it my business to eavesdrop on other people’s conversations.  May I suggest something for tonight?”126

“What?”  Angie’s patience was wearing thin.127

“Have you got anything to wear to the carnival tonight?”128

“Meaning?”129

“You do know that you have to dress up?”130

“No.”131

“If you want I can organise a costume for you.”132

“If it would make you feel better.”133

“Angie, I’m not trying to win your friendship or your approval to spend time with Chanette, I’m just doing my job right now.  And if that means getting you a costume to go to the carnival with Bruce, then so be it.”134

“Whatever.”135

“I’ve got the perfect outfits for both you and Bruce.  I’ll drop yours off at about six, if that’s okay with you.”136

“That will be fine.”  Angie could hardly muster the energy to talk to Caitlin, let alone be in her company later on that evening.  137

The rest of her day seemed dull and uneventful in comparison to her earlier encounters with Bruce and Caitlin.  It was late afternoon when Angie made her way back to the chalet, she bent down and kissed Chanette on the lips as she waked in.  Chanette opened her eyes, parted her lips and kissed Angie back.  Reaching behind Angie’s neck she drew her closer.  Angie sat on the bed next to Chanette and felt her way down Chanette’s body.  Down her cleavage, over her stomach through her pussy curls and located the soft wetness of her cunt.  Angie inserted her fingers making Chanette whimper.  Chanette pulled Angie’s hand away and brought it to her mouth.  She sucked the juices from the probing fingers.  Angie just sat there.138

“What’s up Angie?”139

“Oh nothing.”140

“Don’t talk crap to me, now what’s bugging you?”141

“Why would there be anything bugging me?”142

“Because it’s not like you to start something and then leave me hanging!”143

“I was thinking about tonight.  Please come with us.”144

“No Caitlin is coming round.”145

“So cancel with her and come out with me instead.”146

“No.  I’m not going to cancel I enjoyed spending time with her and want to see her again, and please stop being jealous it doesn’t suit you.”147

“I’m not jealous, I just don’t trust her.”148

“Now you are being neurotic.”149

“Am I?”  Angie asked.150

“Are you going to join me?”151

“Huh?”152

“Bath? Do you wan to join me in the bath?”153

“Okay, I suppose I have to start getting ready for tonight.”154

“Isn’t it a little early to start getting ready?”155

“A woman can never have enough time to get ready for a fucking good date.”156

“A fucking good date?”157

“Indeed my friend, indeed.”158

“So you plan on getting laid?”159

“Who said anything about laying?  Standing, sitting, bending, anyhow will do.”160

“Is it a full moon that you feeling so horny?”161

“Perhaps.”162

“You can be such a slut sometimes Angie.”163

“I’ve never heard you complain.”164

“Touché.”  They stepped into the bathroom and began to undress.  165

Chanette raised her hands and gently tugged Angie’s gym top over her head baring her perfectly rounded breasts.  Couching down in front of Angie while she removed her socks and shoes, massaging each foot as she did so.  166

Standing up she sliding her hands down Angie’s back she hooked her thumbs into Angie’s shorts, tugging them slowly she lured them to the floor.  Angie stepped out of the bundle of lycra that had gathered at her feet.  Chanette buried her face in Angie’s crotch, teasing her clit with her tongue.  “Angie, you’re prickly, I think you need a shave.”  167

Chanette held Angie’s hand and helped her step into the bath, “Sit there on the edge,” Chanette insisted.  Chanette climbed into the bath between Angie’s legs.  Chanette felt her way up Angie’s sides making her lift her arms and grab hold of the towel rail above her head.  Chanette looked around for something to tie Angie’s hands with and found the belt of a bathrobe.  After she had tied Angie’s hands to the rail she strategically placed Angie’s legs on the rim of the bath.  Angie was wet with anticipation, she closed her eyes and waited for Chanette’s next move.  When she opened her eyes, Chanette had lathered up the cake of soap and was soaping Angie’s pubis.  Chanette then took a cutthroat from her toiletry bag and began shaving Angie’s offending stubble.  She carefully scrapped the blade down Angie’s mound and over her lips, being especially careful not to nick her friend’s tender bits.  When she had accomplished her mission, she rinsed off the remaining soap with warm water before burying her face in Angie’s soft shaven mound.  Chanette parted Angie’s pussy lips and embedded her tongue in the warm wetness.  Angie squirmed.  Reaching up Chanette cupped Angie’s breast, feeling her nipple harden under her fingertips.  Angie could feel the gradual build up of an orgasm beginning in the tips of her feet.  She opened her legs to better accommodate Chanette’s penetrating tongue.  Chanette went faster and deeper, thrusting her tongue further into Angie’s cunt, sucking the juices out her ripe tunnel as Angie clenched her thighs around Chanette’s ears.  Once Angie relaxed her grip around Chanette, she was able to loosen the ties that restricted her friend and let Angie slide into the warm water.  They were lingering in the bath when they heard the doorbell chime, “Sit, I’ll get it,” Angie said as she stood up, “I have to get ready anyhow.168

“Are you sure?”169

“I am capable of answering the door,” Angie remarked.170

- 28 -171

When Angie opened the door, she did not expect to find Bruce standing in front of her dressed as a mouse.172

“Do you always answer the door dressed like that or is it only because I’m here?” he asked.173

“Would you like to come in?” she ignored his question.174

“Yes thank you.”175

“You’re early, very early, and I was in the bath.  Make yourself at home while I get ready.”176

“Sure,” was all he replied.177

Angie was on her way back to the room when the door chimed again.178

“I’ll get it,” Bruce called out.  “Hello Caitlin,” he said when he saw her standing on the other side of the open door.179

“Bruce?  Aren’t you a little early?  I’m sure that I put down six-forty-five in your diary.”180

“You did, I just wanted to get here early.  What are you doing here?”181

“I came to drop this off for Angie,” she said holding up a package, “and Chanette is spending the night with me.”182

“Can I see that?” he asked pointing to the package.183

“No.  You’ll have to wait.”184

“Spoil sport.”185

Caitlin was on her way to the bedroom when Bruce called her back.186

“Cat.”187

“Yes?”188

“Thanks or organising the costume, I appreciate it.”189

“It’s a pleasure Bruce, anyway, I’m only doing my job.”  She answered and left him alone in the lounge.  Caitlin handed the package to Angie who took it apprehensively.190

“What is this and how am I ever going to get into it?”191

“Let me help.” Caitlin offered.  She laid the outfit on the bed and unzipped the zipper, which went almost entirely down the front of the outfit, through the legs and up the back.  “Now you climb in this end and I’ll help zip you up.”  Caitlin said.  Angie did as she was told.  Caitlin went up to her, and pulled the zip down the back and through Angie’s crotch, before slipping her hand between Angie’s flat stomach and the figure hugging rubber straight to her wet spot.  Chanette came up behind them and ran her hands up and down Caitlin’s back.  She then pulled Caitlin’s shirt out of her pants and put her cold hand on Caitlin’s braless tits.  Caitlin removed her hand from Angie’s crotch, turned around and kissed Chanette while putting her fingers into their kissing mouths.192

“A N G I E,” Bruce yelled from the lounge, “are you coming?”193

All three girls burst out laughing, “Yes!”  Angie walked into the lounge dressed in a black rubber cat suit, tail and all.194

“How long before we get there?”  Angie asked climbing into the passenger seat of the convertible.195

“Not too long.”196

“I love the vagueness in the reply,” she muttered under her breath.  After what seemed like hours in the car Bruce was parking it in a secluded alley.  He climbed out of the car, walked round and opened Angie’s door for her.  As she climbed out, he closed the door and sat her on the edge of the car.  He clamped his mouth over hers and gave her a long deep kiss.  “I’ve been wanting to do that since you opened the door of the chalet for me,” he told her.  He teased her by trailing his hand down her back, across her thigh and rubbing his thumb against her clit through the rubber cat suit.197

“Does this mouse not know how dangerous it is to tease a cat?”  She whispered in his ear.198

“He knows only too well.”199

“Can you finish what you’re starting?”200

“Time will only tell,” he said as he grabbed her hand and pulled her towards a low buzz.  There were a few thousand people all dressed up and down, walking around all over in various stages of consciousness. Bruce handed Angie a vial, “Drink up.”  Angie took a swig from the silver container and gasped for breath, “What the fuck is in here?” she coughed.201

“A little something I concocted before we left.”202

“What’s in it?” she asked feeling dizzy.203

“Something I manufactured,” he answered.  Angie stared vacantly at him.  “A little more relaxed?” He asked.204

Hmm, oh yes.”205

- 29 -206

Angie could feel herself being shaken and tugged, slowly she came round, “Where am I?” she asked.207

“You’re okay, don’t worry.”  She heard a woman’s voice tell her.208

“Excuse me?”  She asked trying to open her eyes, but could not.  “You tell me not to worry.  I can’t seem to open my eyes, I’m in a strange bed in a strange place, so don’t tell me not to worry.”  Angie yelled manically.209

“You’re not in a strange place.  And if you relax for a minute you’ll be able to open your eyes.” She was informed.210

“Who the fuck are you and where is your place?”211

“I was getting to that, now if you will just shut up long enough to me to talk, you’ll find out!”212

“So talk, I’m waiting,” Angie said trying again to open her eyes.213

“You had something last night that seems to have a weird effect on you, and that is why you can’t open your eyes properly.  The doctor said it should wear off soon, you seem to have had an allergic reaction to something.”214

Angie tried to stand up and found that her head was a little too heavy for her body, she fell back onto the bed.215

“Steady now, just lay down for a while.”216

“Don’t tell me what to do, and where are you anyway?  And what doctor?”  Angie had managed to open one eye, squinted and looked around to find the owner of the voice.217

“Shut up already.”218

Angie was silent as she waited for the stranger to show herself and explain what was going on.  It seemed as if the wall opposite her was moving closer to her.  Angie backed up the bed when she saw someone step out behind the ‘moving’ wall.219

“Hi, feeling a little better?  I see you’ve managed to open an eye.”220

“Who are you? And why can’t I open my eyes?”  Angie was getting furious.221

“Are you always so grumpy when you wake up? Relax girl.”222

“Don’t tell me what to do, who are you and what am I doing here?”’223

“Jeez-Louise, if you would only relax for a minute or two I’ll tell you.”224

Angie glared at her, if her head was not so heavy she would have climbed off the bed and slapped the life out of the leggy brunette that was standing at the bottom of the bed.225

“Okay, before you split in two, I’m Suzanne, I brought you here last night, or was it the early hours of this morning? Anyway, time doesn’t matter.”226

“Why?”227

“Fuck but you are an impatient one!  I brought you here because you kinda picked me up and tried to do me on the stage.  I thought it might be a little more private here.”228

“Where’s Bruce?”  Angie butted in before Suzanne could say another word.229

“Who’s Bruce?” the brunette asked.230

“Bruce, the guy I was with.”231

“Listen honey, when you picked me up, you were most definitely not with any man, besides which if you were with a man, I wouldn’t have let you make a move.  I’m not into three-way scenes.”232

“Hold on.  I wasn’t with a guy?”233

“Are you deaf, or playing stupid?  I said NO.”234

“Now who’s the bitch?”235

Suzanne hissed at Angie under her breath.  Angie could see that the brunette’s patience was wearing very thin.  236

“Okay, I apologise for being the eternal bitch.  It’s just that I don’t remember much about last night.  The last thing I remember was having a sip of something that Bruce gave me.”237

“Apology accepted.  I’ll fill in as much as I can.”238

“Now let me re-cap,” Angie began, “I picked you up?”239

“Kinda.”240

“Kinda?  I either did or I didn’t!”241

“Well you kinda picked me up after I had been watching you for a while and liked what I saw.  So I made sure to grab your attention and be noticed.”242

“And?” Angie waited.243

“I made my move hoping it would work, and it did.  You made a move right back.”244

“Where exactly?” Angie asked remembering something, “on a stage floor?”245

“Not exactly.”246

“Finding chicken teeth is easier than getting a straight answer from you.  What do you mean not exactly?”247

“I may have exaggerated a little,” Suzanne admitted shyly.248

“Oh you exaggerated a little.  Would you please be as kind as to tell me did actually happen?”249

“I thought we agreed, no more bitchiness.”250

“Whatever!  I don’t like playing cat and mouse games.”251

“That’s not the impression you gave last night.”252

Angie could feel her blood rising from her toes, up her legs, over her abdomen and chest, into her neck and straight over her cheeks.  Angie was sure that she was glowing red with embarrassment.253

“Ooh, she blushes, how cute.”254

Angie felt herself blushing more, “I think I had a small recollection of what went down!”255

It was Suzanne’s turn to blush, “It’s good to see you do have a sense of humour after all.”256

“Okay what happened after we picked each other up?” Angie asked, returning to the subject at hand.257

“After we managed to get together, we made our way back through the crowds, to your car, that’s where the mouse game came in.”258

“My Car?”259

“Yes the convertible, it’s parked downstairs.”260

“A black Z3?”261

“Yes.”262

“Oh my fuck!” Angie shrieked.263

“What now?”  Suzanne asked jumping with fright.264

“It’s not my car.  It’s Bruce’s”265

“So what exactly are you telling me?  You stole the car?  No you couldn’t have, because you had the keys to it.”266

“No I didn’t steal it, it’s Bruce’s, the guy I was with until we made off together.”267

“So what happened to him?”268

“Fucked if I know!  I’d better phone him and let him know what happened.  Where’s the phone?”269

“Here,” Suzanne said as she dropped the mobile on the bed, “this ought to be good.”270

- 30 -271

Angie realised that she had no idea how to get in touch with Bruce, so dialled the resort. 272

“Hello, Mandy speaking, how may I help you?”273

“Hello Mandy, this Ms. Erickson, I need to speak to Bruce Delaware urgently,”274

“Sorry ma’am, we don’t have anyone here by that name.”275

“Mandy, Bruce Delaware owns the resort, please may I speak with him.” Angie asked again persistently.276

“Ma’am, I’m afraid there is no body here by that name.”277

“Okay, then is Caitlin there?”278

“Hold a moment, I’ll see if she is in her office.”279

“Thank you.”  Angie was on hold.280

“Hello,” came the unmistakably annoying voice of Chanette.281

“Shanz?  Is that you?”282

“Yes, who’s that?  Angie?”283

“Shanz, is Caitlin there?”284

“No, she’s with Bruce,”285

“Oh fuck!  What are you doing in Caitlin’s office?”286

“I’m not in her office, what gave you that idea?  I’m in her bed.”287

“Never mind.  I need to get hold of Bruce urgently, and the receptionist says that there is no one there by that name.”288

“Hold on a sec Angie, Cat wrote the number down the number of her mobile here somewhere.”  Chanette scratched around on the bedside table.  “Oh here it is, got a pen and paper?”289

“Yes, I’m waiting.”290

“It is 090 186 9295.”291

“Got it, thanks Shanz, speak to you later.”  Angie said as she scratched the number on her arm.292

“This might work a little better,” Suzanne remarked as she handed her a piece of paper and a pen.293

“Thanks,” Angie re-wrote the number prior to dialling it.294

“Hello Caitlin speaking.”295

“Oh thank God, Caitlin it’s Angie, is Bruce with you?”296

“Angie. . “ Caitlin had hardly said her name when Bruce yanked the phone out her hand.297

“Where the fuck are you? And what did you do with my car?  I was just about to file a missing persons report as well as a car theft!”  Bruce bellowed into the phone.298

“I’m fine thank you!  And I have no idea where I am.  Your car is parked downstairs, wherever that may be,” Angie said almost bursting into tears.299

“Okay just remain calm, and don’t start balling on me.  Where are you?”300

“I told you I don’t know.  Hold on I’ll find out quickly.”  Turning to Suzanne she asked, “Where exactly are we?”301

“The Opal Crescent,” Suzanne answered302

“Did you hear that?”303

“Yes I did, I’ll be there in an hour to fetch you, and my car.  What floor are you on?”304

“What floor?”  Angie asked looking at Suzanne.305

“Penthouse.”306

“I heard,” came the grumble down the phone.  307

“How did you manage to gain access to the penthouse?” he asked.308

“Quite frankly, I haven’t a clue, I’m still trying to figure out what happened.”309

“Be downstairs in the foyer when I get there and we’ll go back to the resort.”310

“Okay,” she said sounding unconvincing.311

“What did he say?”  Suzanne asked as she propped herself on the edge of the bed.312

“He’ll be here in an hour to fetch us.”313

“Us?”314

“The car and me.”315

“Interesting.  So I suppose you are going to want to get up, get dressed and leave?”  Suzanne seemed disappointed.316

“It seems that way.”317

“Here let me give you a hand,” Suzanne caught Angie as she stumbled off the bed, brushing against her breast as she did so.  “Oops, sorry about that.”318

Both Angie and Suzanne stopped dead as they touched, it felt as if they were both hit by a lightning bolt.  Angie went week at the knees and had to sit on the bed before she fell.319

“Are you alright?”  Suzanne asked concerned.320

“Yeah, I’ll be fine.  Point me in the direction of the bathroom and I’ll be out your hair shortly.”321

“Through there and to the left.”  She was directed.  Angie stood up again and passed out cold.322

“Wake up,” Suzanne was saying as she held the smelling salts under her nose.  Angie woke up with a jolt.323

“What happened?” she asked.324

“You passed out again, you’re beginning to make a habit of it,” Suzanne teased.  “I’ve called the doctor and he’ll be here shortly.”325

“Why did you call the doctor?”326

“Because you’ve been passing since before we got here.  You almost wrote off the car.”327

“So how did we get here then?”328

“I managed to get you into the passenger’s seat and drive us here.”  There was a knock at the door.  “Don’t move.”329

Suzanne entered the room with the doctor close behind.  “This is the doctor.”  Angie was informed.330

“Hi,” was all Angie said.331

“Morning,” he replied and sat down next to her.  “Has this happened before?” He asked.332

“No.” she replied.333

“Do you have any warning signs that you are going to pass out?”334

“No.”335

“I told Suzanne earlier that it seems as if you have had an allergic reaction, can you think of anything that you have eaten or had to drink in the last twenty-four hours, that you wouldn’t normally have?”336

“Not anything that I can think of.”337

“How about any narcotics?”338

“No.  I don’t need to be drugged up to enjoy myself.”339

“I have to ask.  If this continues to happen, I suggest you consult your doctor and sort it out.  Other than admitting you for observation, there is not much I can do from here.”  He admitted.340

“The only thing I am allergic to is rose water, and I haven’t had any.”341

“Well the good news is, if it is only an allergic reaction, it should work itself out over a couple of hours.  If it isn’t, then you will have to go hospital for testing.”342

“Thank you doctor,” Angie said as he stood up and walked with Suzanne out the room.  Angie stood up very slowly, careful not to pass out and made her way to the bathroom.  She turned on the faucets and climbed into the shower letting the water refresh her.  343

Once she had finished she wrapped a towel around her and went looking for Suzanne.  She found her on the balcony eating toast.344

“Care for a cup of tea and toast?”345

“Tea thanks.”  The atmosphere between them was electric.  Neither of them knowing what to do or say.  Suzanne poured the tea into a cup and handed it to Angie.346

“Thanks.”  Their hands touched briefly sending electric pulses to every nerve ending in their bodies.  “Did you feel that?”  Suzanne murmured.347

“Yes,” Angie nodded.  Without a second thought Suzanne leant forward and planted a kiss squarely on Angie’s lips.  Angie felt as though she would explode with excitement, although nothing had yet happened.348
