For fifteen minutes I watch my phone while I wait for her reply, but it doesn’t come. What is she doing?
“What if that chick goes and sees Natasha and tells her about the movies?” Cameron remarks over his drink.
I frown and stand in a rush. “Let’s go downstairs,” I stammer.
Adrian smiles broadly as he stands. He nods and signals to Ben.
We start to make our way over to the staircase. “What’s doing with Tash?” Cam smirks over his shoulder as he takes the first step down.
I shrug as I follow. “Nothing, why do you say that?”
He turns back to look at me. “Well, if you were finished with her you wouldn’t care what that chick has to show her.” He smirks at me.
My eyes meet his.
“Would you?” He breaks into a broad smile as he raises his eyebrows.
I roll my eyes.
“He’s right.” Adrian laughs. “Inspector Morse doesn’t miss a trick.”
I shake my head and we get to the bottom of the stairs where I am greeted by the sight of Abbie kissing a guy to the side of the bar.
Cameron smirks again as he turns back to me. “Figures,” he mouths at me and I raise a brow.
My eyes instinctively search the space. I don’t see her anywhere. Bridget comes through the crowd.
“Hi.” She kisses me on the cheek and I put my arm around her affectionately. She hasn’t taken sides; I really do love Didge. Abbie on the other hand is a bad influence. I haven’t forgotten the ‘Natasha needs to have a threesome’ remark from that tape that night. I can just imagine her constantly setting Tash up with guys, pushing her into it. It’s been haunting me for six fucking months. My eyes search for her again. I am still reeling from the info that Natasha hasn’t slept with anyone else.
She’s still mine.
“She’s dancing,” Bridget smiles.
I frown at her. “Huh?”
“You’re looking for Tash?” she questions.
“No,” I answer. Actually if the girls are here, who is she dancing with?
Then I see her, she’s laughing and talking up close to some guy in his ear. He has his arm around her and I find myself clenching my jaw in anger. I look away in a rush. I need a drink so I head straight to the bar as jealousy starts to pump through my veins. What am I doing? She shouldn’t affect me this way. I order three shots and drink them in succession. I need to loosen the hell up. I get the rest of the drinks for everybody and head back to the group and there she is … with Cyril? I put my head down so I don’t make a scene and strangle him on the spot.
What’s his name again? I troll my brain. Fuck he’s so … geeky.
Cameron leans over to talk in my ear. “Who’s the bozo?”
I shrug in annoyance.
Natasha walks over and grabs my arm affectionately. “Joshua, baby, you remember Simon?” She slurs into my ear.
I nod and put my hand out to shake his. I really want to break this fucker’s fingers right now. Work friend, work friend, work friend, I remind myself. Cameron smirks as he goes up on his toes in cheek and puts his hand out to shake hands.
“Simon.”
“Cameron.” Cameron smiles. He and Adrian smile broadly at each other. Why do they love it when I sweat like this?
“Adrian.” Adrian holds out his hand to shake the loser’s hand.
