Tall and elegant in a close fitting blue dress that showed off the gym-honed curves of her figure to great advantage (“body-con” Charlie muttered in appreciation. The guy really did look pathetic, all alone, while people sneaked peeks at him from every corner of the room and gossiped about what a disappointment he’d turned out to be. Among the white and gold of the function room, Dean wondered if Sam had the right idea when he’d put on a suit (much to Dean’s amusement.The idea that she’s helping him now makes him smile, as he scrapes the squares into a large glass bowl. Dean watches wide-eyed as the bowl teeters on the edge and he knows there is nothing he can do to stop it.

It was beautiful in its way, but they might as well have just cut to the chase and papered the walls in hundred dollar bills. We’ll cover all your travel costs and only the very best accommodation will be good enough for my cast.

Her head tilts to the side, pointedly, silently telling him what he needs to know, directing him towards the person who can help keep him in the game.
