Newly single.

chapter 15

Next thing I knew I was on the back of a Yamaha YBR125 heading towards town. The speed at which the bike was accelerating at was about as scary as how fast the road markings were moving. I couldn't concentrate on what Dominic was jabbering on about with his bike, I just held tight, with my arms wrapped around Dominic's waist. I could feel his stone hard muscles and the way the flexed as the bike moved side to side... apart from being on the bike this was heaven!

As we pulled up into town I was ordered to stay on the bike as Dominic whipped around the corner. So i sat and did as I was told and sat on the bike. People walked past and got on with their jubilee celebrations but then I spotted Eli, Fiona and Megan... Oh shit, Megan has the biggest gob ever and this will not stay quiet for long at all. As much as I love them, they aren't half loud and a bunch of gossip monsters! 

'HEY ELISE! OVER HERE! HEY!'

A chorus of my name echoed across the street. I couldn't help it; I can't ignore my friends, so I turned round and waved... Big mistake.

'Isn't this Dominic Green's motorbike?'

'Yeh I think it is... OMG he is mega hot!'

'Even I would go for him'

Eli was completely over gay, the sort of gay that you just have to love because of who they are, you could laugh, cry and make a fool of yourself with Eli and he'd just join in, because he could.

But then they turned to me... I knew this was coming...

'So if this is Dominic's motorbike then...'

'Why are you sat on it?'

My reply could have been better but it was the best I could think of at the time.

'Funny you should ask that... I was just asking myself the same question...'

But then to my great pleasure Dominic walked out of the Pizza takeaway carrying 3 pizza boxes. There were 3 reasons why i was glad to see him. 1, we could get away. 2, I was Hungary and 3, he hadn't just left me alone in middle earth, he came back for me.

'Hello ladies... And of course Eli'

In unison they replied...

'Hi Dominic'

'If you'll kindly excuse us... We have a date'

And with a cheeky wink he handed me the pizza boxes, put his helmet on, hopped on the bike, revved the engine and away we went.

A DATE! WHAT! ARE YOU MAD! YOU JUST TOLD THE BIGGEST GOSSIPS THAT WE ARE ON A DATE! Bloody brill. As much as I'd love it to be a date, I don't think it is... But my friends were stunned that he called it a date, they knew that he had walked me home and that we chatted and he was pleasant but never have I said a date was on the cards! Geez...

I watched the my friends stand in shock as we whizzed away, what could i do, they understood as much as i did and that was nothing... God I'm stupid!

The countryside scenery flew by and 5 minutes later we found ourselves on top of a might big hill that over looked the whole valley. Absolutely beautiful.

Dominic pulled a picnic mat out from the storage compartment on the back of the bike and laid it down on some soft poo free grass as I gazed into the distance, completely mesmerised!

'Eh uhmmm...'

Dominic cleared his throat... Clearly I was paying too much attention to the wrong scenery...

'Oh sorry.'

'I'm fading away over here... need... some... pizza..'

'Don't be so dramatic'

I replied with a touch of bitterness as i was enjoying the view, probably more than he had wanted.

'Touchy touchy... now give me the pizza or do I have to tickle you for it?'

Tickle me?! What! This is new...

'Fine then here you go sir'

As we tucked in to the surprisingly good pizza I couldn't help but think about why he told them we were on a date, and when i asked his simple reply was...

'Because I wish we were'
