‘Maybe you should just talk to her.’

It had gone midnight, and near throwing-out time at the Union bar. Except to go to the toilet with ever-increasing regularity, Athelstan had not moved from his sprawled position, watching the object of his desire serve from behind the bar, she laughing all the while, her skin glistening with sweat. Daniel had been served by her several times. Athelstan had not been to the bar all evening.

‘No. I must move slowly, one step at a time, until the anticipation is almost unbearable, before our love is consummated.’ Besides a slurring of the speech, Athelstan was otherwise seemingly unimpaired.

‘But she doesn’t love you. She doesn’t even know who you are.’

‘She will. It’s inevitable. It said so in my horoscope this morning, I expect.’

A bell sounded.

‘We should leave,’ said Daniel.

‘Not until she does.’

‘She’s got to clear up. They won’t let us stay for that.’

‘Then we shall wait outside, in secret, hiding in the dark of an alleyway, and then follow her.’

‘We are not doing that. It’s generally creepy and very illegal.’

‘Oh, don’t be such a weakling, Daniel.’

‘We’re not doing it.’

‘Fine. Fine. I shall find out her address by another means.’

‘Your source?’

‘Got it in one.’

‘Are you done with those?’

It was her. Standing before them, towers of pint glasses nursed in her arms, pressed into her chest.

‘Yes, thanks,’ said Daniel. She scooped up their near-finished pints and added them to the towers. Athelstan stared, his face drained of expression.

‘Your friend OK?’ she said. ‘He looks a bit poorly.’

‘Yeah, he’s OK. Just a bit tired, that’s all. He’s had a long day drinking.’

‘Don’t blame yer, chuck. Don’t blame yer.’

She winked over her shoulder as she walked away. Daniel couldn’t help but see the crevice of her bottom peeking out over her belt.

‘It’s all so enormous,’ he could hear Athelstan whispering, the bar eerily quiet now the jukebox had turned off. ‘All so big… I could die inside of her… a cavern of flesh…’

Daniel wanted to be disgusted at Athelstan, but could not hide from himself that he too wouldn’t be so unhappy doing something similar, with somebody.
