The Channing family
owned and operated a number of “Burger Vans” one of which was on the
Shallowfield road on the Childean side of Forestdean.
During the Summer,
eldest daughter Georgina ran it with the help of David Wythe, who were both
university students, and although they both attended Abbottsford University,
they were doing different degrees and had never met before that summer.
They got on very well
despite his being quite shy and fancying the pants off her and being unable to
do anything about it.
Which he may have done
had he realised Georgina really had the hots for him as well, but he didn’t and
so nothing happeaned.
She knew he liked her
though, she’d caught him looking at her on more than one occasion, but despite
her dropping very unsuble hints he never asked her out.
Georgie was an old
fashioned girl though and didn’t believe in asking a boy out, she preferred to
be more subtle and use her allure.
Which of course didn’t
work on him, even though she’d given him all the signals, green lights and all
the bells and whistles, he just wasn’t getting the message.
So after having worked
together for a month she decided that she obviously had to make the signal
clearer.
So one rainy afternoon
when they hadn’t had a customer for an hour she said
“We might as well shut
up for the day”
“ok” he agreed
“You put the shutters
down and pack awy the tables and chairs while I clear up in here” she suggested
“No problem” David
said and went outside.
By the time he had
finished securing the shutters and stowing away the furniture David opened the
door and Georgina was standing there wearing a green figure hugging dress,
black stockings and stillettoes.
Her flowing red curly
hair tumbled over her alabaster shoulders and her lips wore some freshly applied
lippy.
David looked at her
and could see everything he’d ever desired in front of him and she looked back
at him and asked.
“Do you see any thing
you like?”
“Yes everything” he
replied but he was
“Then come and give me
a kiss” she said invitingly
“We’re not being
picked up for an hour”
He stepped inside and
closed the door behind him but before she let him kiss her she said as she
stood close up to him.
“Before we go any
further I have to know something, are you going to ask me out?”
“Only if the answer is
yes” he replied
“I’m standing here wearing
my best dress looking drop dead gorgeous so do you really think I might say no?”
“Well its obvious when
you put it like that” he remarked
“So?” she teased
“So will you go out
with me Georgie?”
“I knew you fancied me”
she said smugly and kissed him
“So?” he asked holding
her off
“So why didn’t you ask
me out before?” she asked
“I was working up to
it” he replied
“Working up to it?”
she retorted
“We’d have graduated
Uni by the time you got round to it”
“You still havent
answered my question” he reminded her
“Which was?”
“Which was, will you
go out with me Georgie?”
“Ha ha I made you ask
again” she giggled
“Shut up and kiss me”
he said and took her in his arms
