"DREAM DATE"
The Scientist woke up in a cold sweat... The bees needed a Victory, not a 'draw' (tie).
"Damn... These test results are all negative. Well, we'll try-try-try again on the morrow!"
He later thought about the latest effects of Global Warming (Man's 'War on the Planet'? So insane...)
He was glad that he had not had any children. What a harsh, wild world to bring them into, right now.
His career left no time for a family, as yet. But an eruption and fire of passion was brewing inside.

That night...
"So, how do you like the salad? And the prawns? I raised them myself, in a tank in my Lab"
said Russell Davison. His guest was Gemma Andreesen. A stunning blonde beauty indeed!
"The dinner is delicious, Russ. And I assume that there is a sweet 'promise'... Later?"
He did not say it, but his smile and 'Aw Shucks' expression said a definite... Oh, Yes!

After the meal, they did make Love, after they took a few minutes to roller skate.
Good exercise of all kinds was a plus. His work in the Lab was all simply mental...
The full moon in the skylight up above the bed shone in a soft, ivory light.
The pale moonbeams reflected onto Gemma's lightly tanned & velvety skin.
They took 'precautions' as She did not want kids. Not ever. No, never ever.

The next day...
The Lunch Date went bad. He was very late, engrossed in his work.
He was so close... So very close to solving the dilemma of saving bees!
He later went to the back area of the Lab, and fell fast asleep onto his cot.
"Hello, Gemma... Sorry I was late. But I'm here... Now!"
(THE END)
