A universal effect, it seems.
“Not just your Land Rover, Steve. I want your barn as well.”
“You’re a cheap date, Redfern. Battered old jeep and a hay shed? Money’s wasted on you.”
I breathed in the cool breeze, zipping my training top a little bit higher. “Did a parcel arrive for me?”
“Aye.” He gestured to a box in the corner. “Gift for the redhead by any chance?”
“Gift for meandthe redhead,” I smirked. “I’m not sure who’ll enjoy it more.”
I felt the weight of his stare, a strange half-smile on his face. “I don’t bloody believe it. You’ve only gone and got feelings for her.”
“Don’t be ridiculous. I hardly know her.”
“Iknowyou, Jason Redfern, and it’s all over your bloody face. Never seen you smile so much as you have over this chick.”
“That’s what a good lay does for you. You’ll find out soon enough.”
“Ain’t no lay that’s put that spring in your step, mate. Chick’s crawled into your brain.” He lit up a cigarette. “You’ve gone soft for her.”
“I’ve only seen the girl twice.”
“Twice is all it’s taken.”
“Whatever, Steve. You just wait til you’ve had a go. My cock’s never felt so good.”
He threw me his keys. “Bring her out here real soon, or my balls are gonna explode.”
“It’ll be soon.”

April:Dinner party at ours. Kate and Reece, and VERONICA ASHDOWN! I’ve invited Trevor Loveridge too, thought it would do your chances next season some good. Seven sharp. Don’t be fucking late, Jason, don’t you dare. xxx
This was fucking news.
Steve appeared at my shoulder. “Megabitch calling?”
“Texting.”
“What’s she want? You look like you’ve seen a ghost, mate.”
“She wants me to play happy fucking families at her shitty little dinner party.”
“Christ.”
“Tonight.” My sky clouded over, a torrential fucking rainstorm.
“Fuck her off,” Steve shrugged. “Tell her to get stuffed.”
“She’s invited Trevor...”
“She’s a devious fucking cow, that one,” Steve said. “She really is.”
“Yes, she is.”
