Chapter 23

I sent a text to Kevin asking him if he was at home and could I pop up and see him, he replied back straight away and said sure come on up. I dashed upstairs and knocked on his door.

“Hi Linds come on in”

Not sure what I was expecting when I entered his flat, which by the way I had never been inside his flat before, but his place was immaculate, I think I was partly expecting a real bachelor pad, you know with stuff everywhere, dishes piled up in the sink, clothing discarded here, there and everywhere, dust growing on everything, men are not particularly good at housekeeping at times, but instead I found everything neat and tidy, and no dust, as far as I could tell.

“you don’t have to look surprised Lindsay, I like to live cleanly, most of the time anyway”

“well it was not what I was expecting, looks real nice”

“well actually I picked up everything that was on the floor and threw it all in the cupboards” he said with a laugh.

“hey I am not here to judge, I am not exactly an expert housekeeper myself and anyway you should see the junk that is in my cupboards” I said with a laugh

“so I noticed especially the cabinet in the bathroom….just kidding” which we both laughed about.

I told Kevin how I was having problems trying to locate Thomas Caxton and that I had the brainwave tonight of going to Reading to go and have a chat with the owners of the current bicycle stores in the town and seeing if they remembered anything of Tom’s business, I know they may have been in competition with one another business wise but they still might of known one another.

“well that sounds like a good idea, when you going?”

“um I’m not sure, actually I was going to ask if you’d like to come with me, if you want to that is, you don’t have too, just that I thought….”

“yeah that would be nice, I know the town really well, what if we go on Saturday morning?”

“yeah that sounds good, I will treat you to lunch as well”

“we could have a pub lunch, have a lager or two, or you can treat me to something else” he said with a wink and a smile

“no we are not going to the pub, looked what happened last time” I said with a smile.

Kevin and I were seated on his sofa and he leaned towards me and put his arm around my shoulder and said, “and what exactly happened Miss Lindsay Harrison last time, um” he then winked at me.

My mind was racing with what could of happened, and to be honest I think I actually wanted something to happen, but my brain was telling me this is not right, I am too old for him, I need to be sensible.

“anyway we can head off about 9ish on Saturday morning then, I will meet you outside downstairs alright?” I said feeling somewhat
