Chapter One
Mandy had just stepped out of the shower when she heard the doorbell ring. Usually she would have let Allie or Lily answer it but seeing they were out it was left up to her. So she grabbed a towel and rapped it around her body before walking over to the door. As she opened it she was shocked to see Adam standing in front of her with an arm hold of goodies.
"Hey Adam. I wasn't expecting o see you here tonight," Mandy said
"Yeah I can tell" Adam said pointed to the towel Mandy was wearing. Up until this moment Mandy had totally forgotten that she was only wearing a towel. She started to feel quite naked and embarrassed when her thoughts were interrupted by a smirking Adam, who said,
"Well are you going to invite me in or not?" To this Mandy replied
"Yeah sorry ... please come in. I really don't know where my manners are tonight."
Mandy led Adam through to the lounge room and gestured for him to sit down, which he did before Mandy asked
"So what brings you here tonight?"
"Well two little birds told me that you were going to be home alone tonight and that you might like the company."
"These birds wouldn't have been Allie and Lily would they?"
"Maybe..."
"Well anyway, please make yourself comfy while I go and get dressed."
"Gee I was starting to think you were going to stay like that all night," Adam said with one of his great smiles and with a little wink.
"Very funny" Mandy said before turning and going to her room.
While in her room she couldn't help but wonder why Adam was really over. Sure they had talked at work and parties but never had she thought he would be interested in her. After all he could have any girl that he wanted.... She just couldn't understand. She pulled on a pair of black jeans and singlet top before walking back to the lounge room.
As she entered the room she noticed that the coffee table was covered with food which Adam had brought with him.
"I hope you're hungry. I didn't know what to get so I got a huge selection" Adam said
"Yeah I'm starved actually. It's just been one of those days ... you know? ... So what did you buy?"
"Ok well there's some Indian, mild of course coz I hate really spicy food, salad, bread, pasta and of course the most important of all desert. What do you think?"
"Sounds good to me. I'll just go over to the kitchen and get some crockery"
"Here let me help you" Adam said standing up and following her to the kitchen.
Once they had the crockery needed they both started to serve themselves dinner. Mandy turned on the television just in time to see the start of RAW, at which both of them got slightly excited.
"Gee I've been waiting for this all day." Mandy said
"What ... even though you saw it being recorded yesterday?"
"Yeah well it's always different seeing it on TV you have to admit. Like the different atmosphere and all. Also I really want to see a tall blonde's match again because he did so
well." At this Mandy smiled at Adam
"Yeah I guess the match was pretty good but I would never have imagined you to be Y2J fan." Adam said winking at her.
"What can I say? He just oozes sex appeal" Mandy said and started to laugh. Adam then turned and said,
"Oh really? I never knew"
"That's because someone is always so busy with all the girls that follow him around." Mandy said looking at Adam with such intensity.
"Gee I never know that Chris was such a ladies man," Adam said winking at Mandy again.
"Shh ... this is the bit I've been waiting for all night. I am so excited," Mandy said watching the TV closely.
"You've been waiting for it all day? You're not the one who actually fought!" Adam said smiling back at Mandy.
After the show Mandy and Adam continued talking which turned out to be rather flirtatious by both parties. Mandy just could not stop laughing at everything that Adam said because she found he was funny but also she tendered to do so when she really liked a guy. And boy did she like Adam. She had secretly liked him since arriving in America some 6 months ago but he hadn't noticed her ... well at least that's what she thought anyway.
Adam then asked Mandy where the bathroom was. So she got up and showed him where it was. While he was gone she decided to start cleaning up. She carried the plates and food containers over to the kitchen and put them away before going back to the lounge room for another load of stuff. This time she carried two empty champagne bottles ... well non alcoholic champagne anyway ... when she tripped over something and bashed her head on the corner of the bench before she went crashing to the floor. The bottles in her hand had smashed and the glass was everywhere. She had cuts all over her body from the glass. Adam heard the crashing sound and came running over to her. He started to get worried because she was drifting in and out of consciousness and because she was bleeding quite a lot from the cuts. So he picked her up and drove her to the nearest hospital.
