Chapter Thirty-Three
Debs called them down to dinner.
"Jason this is Debs, my step-mum, Jenny my little sister and Kat my big sister."
"And what a fine sister you have" said Jason, eyeing up Kat. Kat looked away shyly but then looked back.
"Hey!" said Lincoln.
Jason grinned.
Even the half a spliff they'd had inspired their appetites, so there wasn't much talking for the first few minutes.
When they came up for air, Kat spoke.
"So Jason, how did you meet Lincoln?"
"We went to school together. Though I am a year older and wiser" he added, winking at her. "We played in the school football team. How old were we?"
"I was 7 and you were 8. And I was better than you" added Lincoln.
"Yeah right" said Jason.
They laughed.
"I'd love to see pictures of you at the age" said Kat.
"I've got some priceless ones of him. I will Facebook them to you" said Jason, smiling serenely at Kat. Lincoln kicked his foot under the table.
"So Jason," said Sam, "It is quite far to get back to London tonight. Do you want to stay over?"
"Thanks, but I have to drive up north for work later on."
"So you aren't in school anymore?" asked Sam.
Jason shook his head as he gulped his drink.
"Oh that is your car out front?" said Sam.
"Yeah, borrowed" said Jason.
"What do you do for work?"
"Sales" said Jason, shovelling another mouthful.
Sam opened his mouth to ask another question but Lincoln silenced him.
"Enough of the twenty questions, hey?" said Lincoln. "Let's go for a spin in the car."
Lincoln stood up and Jason followed.
"Oh, ok, not late though. School tomorrow" he interjected.
"Sure Sam" said Lincoln, leading Jason out.
