In return she got a quick squeeze in the side. ‘Don’t mock Crackergate.’
‘Right. We ready, ladies?’
‘As ever,’ Holly replied, making sure her skirt was positioned right and her top was nice and straight.
‘It’s just quick,’ Annie said, sliding a whiteboard and pen from Chloe’s side to in front of Jen. ‘You write on that. Holly, you say your answers out loud.’
‘Got it,’ Holly said, ready for action.
Jen twisted to the side, holding the whiteboard close to her chest, out of Holly’s sight. ‘No cheating, Miss Taylor.’
‘As if I would.’
Isaac pointed, signalling action.
‘Okay, Holly and Jen, welcome to Lovefest’s Couple’s Quiz,’ Annie said, off-screen. ‘Question number one. Holly, what size feet does Jen have?’
Holly’s cheeks burst with a snort before pulling a face, revealing she didn’t have a clue. ‘Crikey.’ She looked to her own black boots then to Jen’s trainers. She was a five; Jen’s looked slightly bigger. Her hands were bigger than Holly’s. Just.
‘Going to have to rush you for an answer,’ Annie said.
‘Fii. . . siiii—’ Holly started, her eyes narrowed as she tried in vain to read Jen’s face.
‘Hey, no cheating,’ Chloe shouted with a laugh.
‘Seven. I’m going with seven.’
‘Final answer?’ Annie asked.
Holly considered it. ‘Yeah, as good a shot as any.’
‘Okay. Jen, please reveal your answer.’
Jen sucked on her bottom lip, looking at the camera as she turned her board around, whipping it to face Holly. ‘Sorry, Hols.’
‘Seven, yass,’ Holly exclaimed with a fist pump.
‘And I thought that was the easy one,’ Annie said with a chuckle. ‘Nicely played, Holly. Right, question number two: What was Holly’s first impression of you, Jen?’
Holly grinned, hiding a grimace and made a show of biting on her thumbnail. ‘Am I to be honest?’
‘Depends how you think Jen will answer.’
Chloe pulled a face, her eyebrows wiggling as she read Jen’s answer over her shoulder. ‘Seems about right.’
Holly thought.How honest is too honest? How would Jen word this?‘Okay,’ she said, still thinking. ‘Jen, the first time we met, and I mean this in the nicest way possible,’ she continued, a hand over her heart as she exaggerated a cringing face. ‘I thought you were a rude moany cow.’
Chloe snorted, having to put a hand over her mouth to control further giggles.
‘Pfft, don’t hold back, babes,’ Jen replied, fighting her own laughter.
‘I’m interested to see this one. Jen, reveal your board,’ Annie requested.
Jen turned it, to reveal the wordRude.
‘I’m so sorry,’ Holly said, cringing again as she put a hand on Jen’s waist. ‘Like, you really were, though.’
Jen spoke over her shoulder to Chloe, ‘Who said romance was dead?’
