Also on that
morning Doctors Woodward and Cameron took
advantage of the fine day and the fact that they were both off work on the same
day.
When Deborah
knocked for Stuart, he had his binoculars around his neck and when she saw
them, she said
“I hope you’re
not going be saying “Oh what a beauty” every five
minutes”
“I don’t say that”
he said, and she laughed
“Or “Cor look at
that lovely pair”“
“I don’t say that
either” he said indignantly “People only say that in “Carry On” Films”
Deborah was
chuckling loudly
“I would only say
“Oh what a beauty” if I was looking at you” he said
“Oh!” she
exclaimed and they both blushed
It was wet
underfoot as they walked through Bellevue Woods following all the rain from the
past week and with the wet leaves
beneath his feet, he suddenly lost his footing.
“Wha…” he
exclaimed, followed by “oh shit” and the sound of breaking branches and a thud.
She pushed her
way through some bushes and found Stuart getting to his feet and rubbing his
hip.
“You didn’t see
that coming with your binoculars?” she said, and laughed
“You’re mean” he
replied and rubbed his hip again as if he had just remembered he had hurt it.
“Are you ok?” she
asked, and they both giggled and then he replied
“I’m fine”
“Are you alright
to continue?”
“Yes” he said “but
somewhere more stable underfoot”
“Ok” she said, “What
about up by the river?”
“Ok the river it
is” she replied
When they got back to Manor
Row Stuart was feeling the effects of his fall so, she offered to apply some
Voltarol gel on his hip and lower back and when she had finished, without any
warning she kissed him and he kissed her back and then almost telepathically they
communicated that they had made a big mistake, and without speaking she left
the house.
“You are a stupid, stupid
woman” she said out loud as she marched towards her the house “what on earth
were you thinking”
She went through the front
door still berating herself.
“Well that’s the end of the
friendship now, and he’ll never trust you again” she said and went into the
bathroom and slammed the door behind her.
As Deborah was stomping her
way to number 6, Stuart was doing much the same thing in his own house.
“My God man, have you no
self-control?” he muttered
“Just because she’s a
beautiful woman, you think it ok to go and kiss her”
He ran the bath still
muttering
“Just because she’s funny and
has an infectious laugh and has a pretty smile, and smells divine, you cannot
go around kissing her, her….” and as he struggled to complete the sentence he
plopped down on the toilet and concluded.
“… beautiful soft lips”
