"What so you're telling me you wouldn't shag her then?" Keith asks as he jogs down the station steps.

"Who, Kate Moss?" Swill laughs loudly, grinning from ear to ear at the thought of shagging a supermodel with loads of dosh.

"Nah, she's too skinny, plus she's on all the gear that's going, don't know what she's got, where she's been, do I?" Ike laughs.

"What about that Natasha bird from Atomic Kitten?" Keith chips in, looking at Ike with a raised eyebrow.

"Something about her I don't like." Ike shakes his head

"I think you're a bit gay mate." Dave teases as they reach the platform.

When the train comes they all settle down, beer cans still in hand, at this time of night the tube was empty, and they were only a few stop's away from home.

"So you really think he's that good looking?"
Lu looks at Caroline who was in deep thought.

"Yeah?" She shrugs, cigarette between her fingers, offering it to Lu who makes a face and shakes her head.

"No thanks, I've been surrounded by them all night and I don't smoke anyways."

"Neither do I." Caroline laughs as she takes a drag of her cigarette.

"Oh yeah, I forgot, you're a 'social' smoker." Lu laughs, knowing that was a load of bullshit and Caroline didn't want to admit she had fallen back into a pack a day habit

Lu and Caroline made their way down to the platform, yawning. Caroline being a few years older had been a raver back in the 90's, and used to roll into work at 9, straight from the night before, it was evident that those days were coming to an end.

"At least i haven't got to go to that fucking hell hole until Monday." Lu yawns again, flipping her phone up to look at the time, it was only 2.30, but she had been up since 7 the previous day, and she was feeling it now.
Her heel clad feet were killing, her back was sore from work, her voice was getting croaky from the shouting and singing, and she could just about keep her eyes open.
Plus, she had been picking Caroline up off the floor all night, once she gets a drink in her, all spacial awareness and coordination goes out the window with her, and to think everyone thought Lu was clumsy.

"Finally." Caroline mutters as the train pulls in and she straightens herself up, clambering into the carriage, Lu getting on behind her.

A chorus of wolf whistles echo through the carriage and Lu looks at Caroline, men were so animalistic at times, sometimes she swore something had to be in a skirt and barely breathing and they would want to fuck it.

"Pricks" Caroline mutters under her breath, taking Lu's hand and they make their way in to the next carriage, taking a seat and sighing once more as they rested their aching feet.

"I don't care, the shoes are coming off, I don't give a fuck any more" Caroline whines, stomping her heel into the train floor as she lifts the other foot up so she can reach the ridiculously tiny buckle.

"No you're not" Lu smacks her hands away. "You've come this far, we are like four stops from home, something stupid like that, you are no quitter." Lu winks.

Caroline emits another heavy sigh, putting her foot back on the floor.
"Fine...I suppose I would rather have sore blistered feet, than pick out grit and glass from them."

After a couple of stops, Lu stands up, holding onto the pole as she hauls Caroline to her feet, hearing a bunch of lads chanting West Ham till I die.

Lu laughs, shaking her head as the chanting gets quieter and quieter until it fades away completely.

"Wasn't your Dave a West Ham fan?" Caroline quizzes as they walk along the platform.

"I wish you wouldn't call him that, we broke up a good few years back now. He's like a brother now, we grew up together Caz."

Lu links arms with Caroline to keep her steady as they walk up the steps.

"It's fucking bitter." Caroline groans as they get to the top of the tube steps,

"Stop moaning" Lu retorts. "It's a fifteen minute walk home, we'll survive and then we can get into bed and you can piss me off with your snoring"

Out of nowhere, whistles erupt again and they look over to a group of lads, leaning against some railings.

Lu laughs and shakes her head, seriously, what is it with blokes?

"Lu?" One of the guys calls out, and Lu's head snaps back.

"Dave?"

Pete's eyes raked up and down the taller girls body, clad in a jumpsuit that coupled with her heels, made her legs look like they went on for miles, her breasts jiggled as she laughed and she had strawberry blonde hair that skimmed the bottom of her shoulder blades, with creamy skin peeking out from the back of her halter neck.

"Lu?" Dave pipes up, his eyes narrowing as he fully focuses on the two girls.

"Dave?" Her head snaps back and she looks at Dave in shock.

"What the...fancy seeing you here?" Dave puts his beer can down on the wall, making his way over, Swill, Ike and Keith staring in awe.

"Tell me about it." Lu replies, looking up at Dave.

Dave was her childhood sweetheart, she was 14 when they got together, he was a friend of a friend and they went to school together, they were smitten with each other.
Dave was Lu's first kiss, her first love, her first sexual experience.
Things ended when Dave went to uni, they grew up and apart, although they didn't end on a sour note, it hurt too much for Lu to keep in regular contact, but they were like siblings after it, having grown up together in their teenage years.

"You're looking good." Dave smiles, realising how that sounded he coughed." Older I mean, not the 17 year old I knew."

"Yeah...you look older to, but I heard jet setting as an airline pilot did that to you." Lu smiles fondly teasing him, Dave was clever and she was glad he put it to use and followed his dreams.

"Oi, are we gonna get going or what, its brass monkeys out here." Keith shouts at Dave, who was taking way to long with this bird, no matter how fit she was.

Pete still had his eyes on her, he couldn't help it, she was beautiful, and she was different. Not like the girls he knew, who would moan and bitch, doing anything for a lad's attention.

"You heading home?" Dave asks, looking up so he could actually remember where he was, ignoring the hollers of his mates.

"Yeah, just going to walk there. Anyways, you best get going, don't want to get you in shit with your mates."

"Hurry the fuck up mate." Swill shouts, getting more impatient by the second.

"You go on ahead, I'm gonna walk 'em home" Dave shakes his head.

"Dave, I'm a big girl now, it's alright." Lu laughs softly, taking Caroline's arm. "I'll see you around, Alright?"

"Yeah...Ok..." Dave nods, trying to remember she was a grown woman now.

"Bye" She waves , Caroline giving him a wave and a quick 'Bye dave'

"Bye Caz" he smiles slightly at her, walking back over to his mates who are firing questions at him left right and centre

"You soppy piece of shit." Swill grins, laughing. "You got rejected mate."

"Leave it Out, She's an old friend." Dave laughs. "I was being nice, which is more than what you wankers can say."

Swill and Keith launch into another West Ham song, and Pete starts to crack up when up the road they hear a girl yell back "West Ham 'til I die! I'm West Ham until I die!"
