The big day had arrived and Chloe was up bright and early getting herself pampered for tonight. She had started the day off with a steaming hot shower making sure she was fully prepared for the big evening. She didn't want anything to ruin this evening, everything had to be perfect.

"I need a word with you..." Aaron said as a very smiley Chloe walked into the kitchen helping herself to some fruit juice.

"What now?" Chloe replied.

"Why do I get the feeling that you and Elly are hiding something?" Aaron asked.

"Keep your voice down will you?" Chloe immediately replied.

"Well is there?"

"No! We are just close friends, that is all we are and all we will ever be" Chloe replied.

"I don't believe you..."

"Think what you like but you are so wrong. We are simply going to a potential bar for the hen do... that is all" Chloe explained as she rolled her eyes.

"What's the bar called again? Elly did mention it but I've forgotten..." Aaron asked trying to catch them out.

"It's called the boutique, it's new and looks super funky" Chloe replied with confidence.

"Funky? Who even uses that word anymore?"

"Me... so are you done with the questions? Because I need to get on with things" Chloe replied.

"Fine but I don't trust you!" Aaron said.

"Morning Chlo" Elly said as Chloe walked past her.

"Morning... can't stop" Chloe replied. She thought it would be best if the two of them didn't spend too much time together around Aaron as he was already becoming a little bit suspect.

"She's in a hurry..." Elly said to Aaron as she sat down at one of the bar stools.

"She's getting ready for your night at the bar. What was it called again? My memory is awful".

"The boutique it's right in the centre of the city opposite that amazing tapas restaurant" Elly explained.

"I love that place" Aaron replied.

"Well like you said last night you'll have to take David there" Elly said.

"It's a shame he's working tonight otherwise we would have come along with you".

"Yeah it is a shame, another time though" Elly replied.

"For sure! I mean I could still come with you?"

"It's a girls night, sorry" Elly replied.

"That's discrimination".

"Aaron give it a break, you can't go on their night out" Mark said.

"Morning babe" Elly said giving Mark a kiss.

"Good morning! Fancy a bite to eat before you and Chlo head off?" Mark asked.

"I'd love to but we're going to head to the city early and get some shopping in" Elly replied.

"Ah that's a shame but you girls enjoy and we can have lunch another time" Mark said.

"Sounds perfect" Elly replied giving Mark a kiss on the cheek.

"I'm gunna head off for a run... Az you wanna join?" Mark asked.

"Yeah sure, give me two minutes" Aaron replied.

Elly's eyes lit up as she knew the two of them would have the house to themselves, maybe they could get some practice in before the real deal tonight.
