Molly ran to catch up with the lads. She had said a hasty 'see you later' to Boss Man so she could eat with the rest of the section. She didn't want things to change. She had always eaten with them and didn't want to become separated from the rest of the group. She also knew she could hardly sit with the Boss. That would definitely be a big no no. He was meeting up with the Major later so she said she would catch up with him when he was finished for the day.

The lads were still goofing off and were obviously in good spirits. 'Hey. Wait up. Wait for me' she shouted as she ran up behind to catch up with the stragglers in the group.

'You slumming it Dawsey?' teased Mansfield Mike 'Do you really want to eat with us?' He said it with laughter in his voice as he put his arm round her shoulder.

'It's been a while since I saw feeding time at the zoo and I've got nothing better to do so I thought 'why not?'' Molly smartly replied digging him in the ribs with her elbow.

'Ha Ha Mansfield. That's you proper ripped' shouted up Fingers.

They joined the queue for food and then fought the usual battle to find a table for them all. They ended up being split across 2 adjacent tables with Molly sitting next to Kinders and opposite Fingers and Mansfield. Dinner was the usual madness. They were so loud. The teasing and banter across the two tables was never ending. Fingers and Mansfield were pinching food off each others plates and at one point Fingers ended up on his arse on the floor.

'You're quiet?' Kinders nudged Molly gently with his shoulder. She looked up.

'I'm fine. Sometimes they just do my head it. It really is like feeding time at the zoo' she replied with a rueful smile.

'They are fine with you and the Boss you know. I heard them talking earlier. They were joking on that they could completely understand what he saw in you, but they couldn't understand what you saw in him.'

'Really?' Molly replied in a surprised tone 'I….'

'I really don't want to know what you see in him Molls' Kinders laughed in reply. 'Just know they are made up for you. They will take the micky, but that's them. Don't worry about it and don't second guess everything they say. The time you need to worry is when they are not taking the mick.'
