Fifteen – Rebecca

The sky was clear and blue and despite the chill in the frosty air it was still a beautiful day. Even the usual chaos of London seemed to have dulled to a peculiar sense of calm this morning, although that was probably because everyone was sleeping off their New Years’ Eve excesses from last night. Standing tall I leant over to the right to stretch down my side in preparation for my run. The first run of the New Year and it was a perfect day, which somehow seemed to bode well for the future. This was the year that I would be getting married, I thought with a huge grin. How exciting was that!

Glancing at my watch I frowned. Stella was obviously running late today which wasn’t ideal because it was bloody freezing. Shrugging I carried on with my warm up, not wanting my muscles to stiffen up in the cold temperature. Planting my right leg before me I stepped back into a lunge and stretched out my rear Achilles. As I stretched I let my gaze wander over the sights of Green Park before me as the low winter sun cast its rays across the park, forming beautiful glimmering jewels in the frosty grass. I was getting quite into these runs now, they were part of my ‘lose weight to fit into my wedding dress’ fitness regime, but a month or so ago Stella had decided to join in to keep me company and so I now enjoyed them even more

‘I’m here!’ I heard Stella’s voice behind me and came out of my stretch to see her jogging towards me smiling. ‘Sorry I’m late!

‘Morning!’ Selecting our route on my phone’s running app I clicked ‘start’ and pocketed it before Stella and I started off on an easy jog down the long path that ran around the edge of Green Park. ‘Did you and Nathan go out to celebrate New Year then?’ I asked, wondering if her evening had been half as eventful as mine with Nicholas had been. A blush heated my cheeks as I remembered back to last night; after cooking a lovely dinner Nicholas had produced a set of challenge cards, a bottle of single malt whisky, and a bottle of amaretto before announcing that we were going to pass the remaining time until midnight playing drinking games.

Needless to say, the challenges in Nicholas’ version of the game weren’t your usual singing or dancing ones, no, most of the cards Nicholas had made involved something sexual, or intimate, and had certainly been a very pleasant way to bring in the New Year.

‘No, we stayed in. I just overslept,’ she explained with a rueful smile as a slight flush reddened her cheeks. Hmm … that blush looked very similar to the one I could feel heating my cheeks, and I’d almost place money on the fact that Nathaniel Jackson had also created a rather eventful way to spend their New Years’ Eve last night.
