"Happy birthday, Harry!" Selena kissed her friend on the cheek, "Not long 'til retirement now, eh?"
"Hey, I'm not that old!" he exclaimed, laughing.
"Tonight still on, is it?" asked Charlie, who was sat drinking a coffee.
"You bet! I've got a babysitter booked. Have you?" Harry smiled.
Charlie nodded. "Yep. Who's coming Selena?"
She reeled off some names, "Guppy, Josh, Maggie..."
Maggie walked in, and stopped upon hearing her name, "What about Maggie?"
Selena smiled, "You're coming tonight, aren't you? Harry's birthday?"
"Of course, happy birthday Harry."
"Thank you."
"Great." said Charlie, "Who else?"
"Er...Tess, Kelsey, Abs and Nina, oh, and er, Nathan..."
The four of them groaned at Nathan's name.
"That'll be fun." Maggie said, sarcastically.
"Ergh, I've heard enough, I'm off. See you all later." Harry walked out of the staff room, towards cubicles.
"I'd better get going too." said Selena, and she followed Harry out the door.
Charlie turned to Maggie, "Who invited Nathan?"
"Well, I didn't!"
"Perhaps he's different out of work."
"Not according to Selena."
"Great." Charlie rolled his eyes and they both grinned.

"I'll see you later love, when I finish my shift." Maggie said to Selena later that day.
"Alright, what time do you finish?"
"In a few hours, I might be a bit late, I'll get a taxi down there as soon as I can."
"Where's your car?"
"Garage."
"Ah. Do you want me to come and pick you up?"
"Don't be daft, I told you, I'll get a cab."
"Alright then, see you later."
"Bye."
