Chapter 2
He looked quickly up the road, and then down the other way; before turning to follow her.
He took three quick strides, but then stopped for a second, when he began to move again he forced himself to go slower, reining in his impatient desire to catch up with her ... he walked slowly down that shadowed alleyway, feeling the coolness washing over him, as he stepped out of the oppressive heat of that sunny afternoon.
He could smell the faint odour of rotting food, and stale beer, and guessed that this place was often the habitat of some vagrant or other; at the moment though it seemed deserted, and silent as the grave.
He saw the little flash of her rain coat as she disappeared out of sight about half way down.
He followed her down that abandoned alleyway, keeping his strides short and casual, not wanting to seem anxious or eager.
As he reached that dip, he saw that it was a slight alcove, and she was stood back against the far wall, as far back as she could get – she seemed to be waiting ... for him?
He stopped in front of her, his eyebrow lifted as if in query, and her pansy blue eyes narrowed uncertainly.
"I just wanted to say..." she began huskily, and he gave a little shudder as her velvety voice seemed to caress his overheated skin. "I just wanted to ... thank you ... for your help..."
He nodded his head in acknowledgement, and then waited silently ... expectantly.
She licked her lips seductively, although he didn't quite know if she had meant it to be seductive, or if she was just nervous.
"Thank you..." she whispered as the silence dragged out a little too long.
