A/N: Just a quick little something I threw together. Will be 2/3 chapters maximum and is based around the discussions on WFCTGIO that took place today. Nothing groundbreaking :p Enjoy! x

I waved briefly to Roxy as she greeted me from her salon.
Turning around, I almost bumped into my dad. I looked up in surprise not sure if I should say something to him.
"Hi".
"There's something you need to see".
-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
"What ARE you doing"?
Stepping back, I addressed the tall, dark man standing in front me.
"Oh come on. No one's around".
"I have a boyfriend. Someone that I love very much".
"He's not here right now".
I scoffed.
"Sorry love – not in this lifetime. Now either you stop coming onto me or I'll stop this induction right now and you can find yourself another trainer".
"Alright, alright! Jheeze, you can't blame me for trying".
"In that case, take 2 and we'll start again".
I walked over to the railings and picked up a bottle of water. Unscrewing the lid, I chugged down the water, gratefully quenching my thirst. I looked around unable to find Ray, my new client. I'd known him for less than 20 minutes and he'd already tried to come onto me. I was flattered, of course I was, but did he really think I'd cheat especially AFTER I'd told him that I was with someone. Maybe a couple of years ago, I might have had a quick shag with this masculine, rugged guy and forgotten about it but I'd have to be high on drugs and had downed at least 15 bottles of Tequila to even consider looking at another guy now.
Screwing the lid back on, I heard running and turned in time to see Ray jogging up to me.
"Where did you disappear to"?
"Just saw someone I know. Anyways, sorry about earlier - let's forget about it".

"I knew it. Your mother and I we TOLD you he'd do this to you but you made us out to be the people in the wrong"?
"I still have no idea what you're talking about dad. Can you just tell me please. You're scaring me now".
We stopped and I looked at him, waiting for some kind of explanation.
"Christian".
I tensed up, eyeing up my dad.
"What about him"?
"He doesn't do commitment".
"And what on EARTH possessed you to think that"?
"He's cheating on you".
I laughed mirthlessly. Christian. He'd never do that to me.
"I don't believe you".
"Your mother has a very good judgement of character Syed. You know that better than anyone else. She told you time and time again that he'd only hurt you but NO you wanted to go along with this reckless infatuation didn't you? And now look, he's sleeping with other men".
"I don't have to listen to this".
Why couldn't they just leave us alone? "I don't have to listen to this". Marching past my father, I stopped in my tracks a moment later as his words halted me.
"Why not see for yourself"?

Hearing the door shut quietly behind me, I smiled to myself without bothering to turn around
"Back already, are you? Couldn't stay away, could you? I've got a client downstairs but just give me a few minutes and I'm all yours babe".
I felt two arms slip around my waist and a moment later I realised it wasn't Syed. I turned in the embrace as two hands locked themselves firmly around me. A pair of lips planted themselves onto mine, taking me momentarily by surprise. I then became aware of two things simultaneously. Firstly, one hand was squeezing my butt cheek and secondly the front door was wide open.
