Ellie jumped a little in her seat as they landed and the wheels of the Lear Jet screeched as they touched the runway.
"My goodness, I must have fallen asleep", she thought…and stretcher her arms and legs, opening her big eyes and long legs, to steady herself, a little more wide as she got used to the light that was blinding in through the plane window.
Her heart started to race a little now that she knew that her meeting with the Prince was now closer than ever. Earlier it has still all seemed a long way off but now she was very close and her dream and his first misplaced phone called seemed a very long way off.
"Where was Crazy Kid?"...she thought to herself…the last time she had seen him he was guzzling on his thirdbucket of cocktail that Sugar had made for him.
“We are here”, said Sugar…in her usual smiling calm voice that Ellie was now getting used to hearing.
Ellie said “fantastic”….in a half excited and half pensive voice.
“Kim will be here soon”…Sugar said…“she will take you to the good old spank”…
”The good old spank?”… asked Ellie…”Yes, HMS Spank-At-Sea, we all call the boat Spank, for short”…said Ellie.
Ellie smiled, wondering why anyone would call a boat, or ship Spank-At-Sea. Anyway, that appeared to be its name.
The plane came to a stop and Ellie got up and went to the plane bathroom to freshen-up. Whilst she was putting on her lipstick, she heard a rumble in the plane’s floor, a lot of giggling and then, as the rumble disappeared, the sound of a new voice.
“EELLLIIIIEEEE”…she heard being shouted, in a superbly loud but calm way and then, again… ”EELLLIIIEEE”…
Ellie appeared from the bathroom, looking radiant and dazzling in the lemon dress. “This is Kim” said Sugar…and Kim and Ellie didn’t say a word, just gave each other a hug, as girls do on these occasions.
Then Kim stood back and admired Ellie and her lemon dress and said “Everyone says HI!....now come with me, follow and keep up…we must go and get to Spank”.
Everyone says "HI"…thought Ellie…I wonder who everyone is?…as she strutted after Kim to the plane door, both of them showing ample amounts of long legs and trying to balance on their high heels.
What a picture they both were as they exited the plane down the shining steps…the sunlight surrounding them and…Ellie’s dress seeming to totally disappear…(As the song lyrics had said in Chapter 4; “she wore lemon, see-through in the sunlight”)
The girls got into the pearl white Range Rover that awaited them and off they went, Kim passing Ellie a glass of chilled champagne that was waiting for her on a silver tray handed over to them by the well-dressed chauffeur.
"What a difference this was to the trip to the airport with Kramer the Creamer", thought Ellie…Although, she still held in her heart a certain admiration and desire for him.
Ellie sipped on the champagne in measured gulps and asked for another. She wanted to soothe her nerves. Kim giggled and laughed aloud, in equal measure and poured another glass for them both.
As Kim chatted about the pleasures of her friend Victoria’s secret, who designed many items of luxurious clothing, Ellie seemed to disappear into a white cloud of happiness …. Drifting like an angel into what looked like, from the outside at least, like a drowsy, woozy, tipsy, dozing snooze.
Ellie could hear Loner barking quietly and there was a gorgeous aroma of coffee in the air that seemed to fill all of Ellie’s senses. The sunlight pierced through the windows and warmed the cheeks of her already blushed face…Ellie had felt this feeling before.
Her mind was filled with thoughts of Denny, Tuyen, Me-Me, Ashley, Kramer, the Sun Seller shop, Mr Weathers and all of her other friends from the village…Ellie’s eyes opened and she was in her bed waking for another fantastic day…
It’s all been a dream, thought Ellie, slowly coming to her senses….and then there were a number of “thumps” against her front door, in quick succession. She didn’t have time to think too much.
Ellie reached for her white robe and in a little bit of a blur, went downstairs across the highly polished wooden hallway floor to open the bright blue front door, ignoring the continual barks and moans of Loner, who she thought was playing with himself on the lawn. Loner often played with himself.
Ellie opened the door and saw Crazy Kid and all her friend’s smiling and waving at her….”everyone says Hi”…shouted Kramer…and as Loner appeared with his big thumping bass guitar, which he often played… They all said together “Hi Ellie…Happy Birthday!”
Smiling to herself, Ellie realized, there would be no spank for her today…
To be continued on further books.
