Chapter 1
"Bloody Hell! Did you see that pass?" cried Dom to Orlando, half out of his seat as he and a few of their friends watched the All Blacks game below.
Orlando managed a slight smile, he wasn't really into the game today, instead, he prefered to keep Elijah company with his silence.
"Whats the deal with you guys?" Lij turned and looked him in the eye, "I thought it was like an original sin to support ANY rugby team but your own Wilksys?"
"Aye yes," piped in Billy, "But we're a smart bunch of lads we are. If we were even caught dead cheerin' fer anyone but the Aussies or Kiwi's down in this part of the world, well; they don't pull prime rib from the netherlands in this country!"
Elijah looked deep in thought and Billy and Dom suddenly jumped out of their seats screaming in joy;
"That'll'do Douggy, me boy! Excellent job lads! My Bloomin' Aunty, did Thorne run like a horse or what?" exclaimed Billy.
"Aye, but did you see the backrheel by Spencer? That rheel made his haka look like fairydust!" added Dom.
Orlando placed his fingers against his temples, his headache seemed only to be getting worse. Perhaps he was just nervous about the meeting with PJ and Fran this evening. He hadn't had a 'one on one' meeting with them for a while, and usually, he was the one organizing it. But not this time. Maybe he just needed some rest.
"Look fellas, if ya don't mind, Im gonna go."
Elijah's expression turned from one of boredom to one of relief, "Great can I get a ride?"
The keys jingled out of Orlando's pocket and came before Elijah's face, "Here, you drive."
With a grin like the grinch, Elijah snatched them away greedily and let out a mischevious chuckle, "You won't ever regret it my dear boy! Mwhaahahahaa!"
"Yeah run along you bug-eyed Yank, I'll meet you there in a moment, IM goin' to the loo," Orlando smirked.
They said their goodbyes to the crew and made headway through the crowded hall where they seperated and each went their own way.
It took only a few moments for Orlando to spot the men's dunny sign and he hurridly pushed his way through the sea of black, green and gold clad people to get there.
"Cripes! To all buggery!"
Orlando heard the woman's voice and knew he was the target of his curses. Sighing his defeat and holding his urge to pee, he turned around and headed back to the woman who was now quickly trying to swipe hot coffee from down the front of her jacket.
"Look, Im sorry, really, truely very sorry. It was an accident. Look can I help you with that? Sorry..." he said, trying to pry the half empty foam cup from her hands.
"Yes I know your flippin' sorry, you've said it more than enough. Now please, please, go about your business. I shouldn't have been wandering carelessly about. It was partially my fault," the woman said, looking up at Orlando with her fiercley green eyes. The hardness in her tone softened quite dramatically when her eyes connected with his, and for a moment, they were both completely silent.
Then she turned away.
"Please, let me make it up to you. Can I buy you a new coat?"
The woman scoffed and smiled, "Are you joking? Of course not! I don't even know you!"
Orlando sighed and tried to make another approach, "It's nice to see your mother's taught you never to accept gifts from strangers."
The woman threw her head back and laughed, then turned to face him once more. She stuck out her hand, "I'm Huia."
With a sigh of relief, his guilt vanished and he clasped her gloved hand in his and bent over, kissing it dramatically, "'Tis a pleasure, M'Lady. I am Lord Orlando. Huia is such a lovely name, I've never heard it before."
"It's a Maori name my dear, Lord Orlando?" she said smirking and raising an eyebrow, "A little full of yourself there aren't you Sir?"
"Quite," Orlando smiled back cheekily, "Did your mother say anything about having coffee with strangers?"
"I don't believe she did," laughed Huia.
It was then brought to Orlando's attention that he still needed to pee and that Elijah was waiting at the car, "Would you excuse me for a moment, I need to use the gents."
Huia shrugged her shoulders casually and placed her scarf around her neck, "By all means go, we can't have you wettin' the floor can we?"
Shaking with chuckles, Orlando nodded his agreement, "I'll meet you over there... by the window at that cafe."
Huia just shook her head in amusement, "Don't hurry Sir, take your time."
Orlando grinned over his shoulder and quickly made an exit to the toilets. Once inside he quickly pulled out.... (no naughty thinking readers!)... his mobile phone and texted Elijah.
'Will be delayed. Take car home. I'll get a taxi.'
Within' minutes, he was finished and back out into the hall. It appeared the game had completely finished as it seemed to be more crowded than seconds ago.
Peering through the crowd, he looked for Huia. He should easily be able to pick her out, for he could remember what she was wearing. A long fawny beige over-coat with a cream coloured scarf, and a chocolate brown berae sat upon her wildly black curls.
Finally, he reached the designated cafe and searched for the company he was to enjoy. But to his surprise, he couldn't see her anywhere. He rubbed his eyes and double checked, but it was hopeless. The girl had disapeared.
