I ran up onto the stage and Craig gave me a really....sexy.....wink. I don't know if it was for my benefit, the audience or Ms Diamond but everyone saw it and it sent my pulse racing.

"And then there were four" she whispered huskily into the mike. "Who wants to go first?". I looked at Craig, who shook his head and neither of the other two volunteered either. "No commers?" she cackled at her own joke. "Well just have to toss for it then". The crowd were in stitches at her rude behaviour, egging her on.

Carl called heads as he was nearest to her and they chose to go second.

"Okey dokey, Blue Eyes. I'm going to ask you a question with multiple choice answers and you have to pick A, B or C and it match the answer Lover boy gives" she explained. Craig held the letter cards on his lap out of my view.

"If Lashes was a mode of transport, which would you describe him as....."

"A. A Motorbike....Fast, dangerous, bold and risky.

B. A horse and carriage....Romantic, whimsical, dreamy and likes to take his time.

C.A speed boat....Adventurous, breathtaking, rousing with an adrenalin rush?"

Ms Diamond waited expectantly as i weighed up the options. Definitely not A. Yes he was reliable but the other two answers summed up Craig much better. I couldn't decide between the other two. In my opinion he was very dreamy looking but i'm not sure he'd like being described that way. The question was obviously asked in relation to sex and i could picture Craig taking his time and enjoying the moment.

Then again i would also describe him as breathtaking. He certainly takes my breath away on a regular basis. Rousing, yep, i could tick that box for Craig also. In the end i made the decision on what i figured he would be most likely to put for himself.

"I'm gonna go with C" i answered. Candy passed Ms Diamond the card Craig was holding.

I let the breath i was holding out with a rush. Same answer, probably best i didn't go with the romantic answer then. He grinned giving me a thumbs up as we heard Carls question. Thank goodness i didn't have his question. He was asked which landmark Daniel was most like and most of the descriptions were pretty lewd to say the least, talking about towering erections and big ones.

Craig was trying his best to hold back the laughter and i could see Daniels shoulders shaking next to me. In the end they got it right, both agreeing that he was like The Blackpool Tower.

Ms Diamond turned to Craig.

"I don't know what you're finding so funny, it's your turn". He sat up straighter in his chair, like he did at school when the teacher asked a question.

"If Blue Eyes was described as a meal, which would he be". I listened as she gave the options.

A. A Haute cuisine starter....Sophisticated, sublime, tasty but leaves you wanting more.

B. Main course....A steak dinner....Hearty, satisfying, meaty and filling.

C. Dessert....Toffee Pavlova....Sweet, indulgent, mouthwatering and delicious".

Ms Diamond looked at him, a lascivious smile on her face. She folded her arms and tapped her foot as Craig and i contemplated our answers. F*ck it....i picked C for no other reason than Craig has a sweet tooth. It's not like he was going to pick an answer based on what i might be like in bed anyway.

PART FIFTY ONE

CRAIG

"I don't know what you're finding so funny, it's your turn". I made myself comfortable as i awaited the options. I'm not sure if we just got lucky with our answers for the first question or if John Paul really did picture me as being breathtaking and adventurous but either way, i wasn't going to complain. I listened as Ms Diamond started my question.

"If Blue Eyes was described as a meal, which would he be". I listened as she gave the options.

A. A Haute cuisine starter....Sophisticated, sublime, tasty but leaves you wanting more.

B. Main course....A steak dinner....Hearty, satisfying, meaty and filling

C. Dessert....Toffee Pavlova....Sweet, indulgent, mouthwatering and delicious".

I think the point of the question was to choose the option with the words that best described John Paul in bed but for the life of me i couldn't seem to get past the mental picture of him led there with toffee sauce, cream and meringue smeared all over his naked chest. Now correct me if i'm wrong but that is not something i should be thinking let alone be able to picture in the most vivid detail.

I took a deep breath and tried my best to focus on the task at hand. Okay so did i think John Paul was sophisticated....no, not in the least so that ruled that part out. Then i thought about the rest of the words and i could imagine that he could leave his lover wanting more.

Tasty....well that's the same as the kiss thing right, i mean....course he'd be tasty, you only had to look at his lips to want to dive right in. I couldn't help my mind wandering...i bet they taste like lager and strawberries and chocolate. Oh yeah, i could imagine that.

The steak dinner option was a bit below the belt, if you know what i mean so i didn't let my thoughts linger there for too long. Meaty....seriously....What the f*ck!

As for the dessert option, i was literally salivating at that one. Sweet....yep, i'd say he ticks that box. I certainly think he's cute....and i'm a bloke.

Indulgent....mmm, maybe, i think he'd be unselfish and attentive if that's what they meant.

Mouthwatering and delicious....I swallowed, my mouth suddenly dry. Yeah, tick for that one too.

So i answered C and we got it right. John Paul looked over, a massive smile on his face giving me a wink and the thumbs up as the others were asked their question.

I couldn't catch my breath as his blue eyes bore into me. My heart was racing at a hundred miles an hour and i was sitting there with the biggest f*ck off hard on i've ever experienced.

F*ck it.... i wasn't going to kid myself any longer that it was brought on by anything else but the thought of me....licking Toffee Pavlova....off my best friend, then kissing what had to be the fullest, lushest lips i had ever seen.

Yeah so, you can imagine the turmoil i'm going through at the moment. B*llocks!!!! I turned my head at the shout of triumph that was coming from Carls mouth. I take it they got their last question right then.

Ms Diamond explained that there was going to have to be another tie breaker to decide on the winning couple. We were each handed a board to write our answers on and each couples answers had to match. I looked at John Paul, who smiled his reassurance.

"What is your favourite position?". Her smile was wicked.

The wind was knocked from me again. This was what hell had to feel like. It was utter torture. Absof*ckinglutely unrelenting. Was it not bad enough thinking what i had been all night, without imagining what bloody sex positions he likes as well. My mind went blank, i couldn't even think of any.

I looked at Carl and Daniel who were scribbling away like ferrets. Not that ferrets scribble mind...

My eyes strayed over to John Paul, even though i was telling them not to. I was confused.

He seemed to be at as much of a loss at what to put as i was. He was clutching the piece of chalk so hard i was surprised it hadn't snapped and his jaw was clenched as he looked down at the black board in his hand. He licked his lips as he touched the chalk to the board, then he hesitated and drew his hand back again.

I was transfixed with his movements, his slim, long fingers holding me mesmerised and i got a sudden lump in my throat as i imagined them trailing over me, his touch, light as a feather, teasing over my skin. My breathing hitched in my chest and he looked up as if alerted by the sound.

His eyes narrowed as he saw i was staring back. His eyebrows furrowed and his eyes clouded over.

He wrote something down hastily and glanced away.

"If you want, i can give you two some privacy" Ms Diamond said sarcastically. I wasn't even aware she was speaking to me until i saw the glint in her eye, directed at me.

"Oh, sorry". I looked back down at the blank board, gulped and wrote my answer.

"Come on then lads...lets see what you're made of". We turned our boards round and i snorted with laughter as i saw how close John Pauls answer came to mine.

He'd put Centre Forward to my Goalie. He looked at my board and started laughing too, great minds think alike. Carl and Daniel had the same answer though, well kind of. Carl put me on top and Daniel had put me on bottom, so they won....but that was okay. This was one competition i was alright with losing.

Ms Diamond pursed her lips. She didn't seem overly impressed with our answers but congratulated us on second place. She handed us our goody bags and an envelope. We thanked her and did a jaunty little wave to the crowd as they cheered us on.

We did the gentlemanly thing and shook hands with Carl and Daniel before making our way off stage.
