I reached into my backpack and pulled out my iPad. The club had WiFi so I looked up some of the older exams and began studying them. I tuned out the m...sic and turned up the brightness on my iPad to compensate for the darkness.I was about a half hour into my studying when I sensed a presence in front of me. In the dim light I could make out a pair of long tanned legs that only ended at a very short frilly skirt. Definitely enough to break my concentration.“Hi”, came a voice from from the. "Hey! It wasn't my idea – I would've let them come; the more girls to play with, the more ... you know ... fun." She looked helplessly at the others as they stared at her, feeling more and more guilty that she'd done something terribly wrong. The problem was, she couldn't imagine what it might be."I didn't do anything!" she exclaimed, proclaiming her innocence in the disappearance of the twin Phoenix girls. "I'm not responsible for Phoenix girls more advanced than me! They're the ones who're. She seemed nervous and embarrassed but also thoroughly determined. I got the impression she had rehearsed and rehearsed what she was going to say when she saw me and she was going through with it no matter what. I also realised that she was the first FUCK victim (apart from Wendy, of course) to use the "L" word. And then she put the cap on it with the "M" word."James, darling, I love you and I want to marry you." Having got this off her chest she let out a relieved breath and looked more. She crossed her legs, pulling at the skirt's hem. One of the doctor's warm hands rested on her hip; the other held a glass of brandy. Blue smoke hung in the air; she could smell the acrid perfume of cigars.The blonde sitting with the unknown man seemed as nervous as she was. She wore a pale blue mini dress that showed a lot of thigh. The brunette sitting with Fleming had her arms around his neck, whispering into his ear and giggling. She was in black, her dress cut low enough to show generous.
