I knew she could eat as she was able to drink, so I asked if she wanted to eat here, or elsewhere.  Beth suggested that we eat where we were.  I caught the waiter's eye and asked for the menu and wine list when he walked over.  A couple of minutes later we were choosing what to eat and drink.  When the waiter returned, we had already made our choice and selected a bottle of wine.  He left with our order, leaving us to talk.  She asked about my day, and informed me I was lazy, to which I raised an eyebrow.  I asked about her day and she told me about her work, which had taken me by surprise.  I enquired about her previous night’s take away.  Her eyes sparkled and said “Thank you.”

Our meal arrived, but the conversation washed back and forth, like old friends who had not seen each other for a while.  It was surprising for both of us how much we did have in common, giving us opportunity to laugh and be relaxed.  At the end of our meal, it was 9pm, so I paid the bill and asked the waiter to get a taxi for us.  Beth looked questioningly at me.  I told the driver to take us to Convent Garden, Drury Lane to take in a show (Oliver), which she thoroughly enjoyed.  After the show, another taxi ride to the Archduke in Waterloo for a drink and a dance.

While we were dancing, she said, “Thank you.”  I placed my finger to her lips to quiet her, then I placed my finger under her chin and lifted.  Beth’s face angled up towards me, so beautiful, my face tilted down towards hers.  Our lips brushed, although slightly cooler, very pleasant.

“My pleasure,” I said.  I then stroked the side of her face and her lips turned to my hand and kissed it.  I brought her face back towards mine and kissed her on the lips, nibbling them at the same time.  Her arm snaked up towards my face and her hand held me there to return the kiss.

We broke for air, her eyes dark and sultry; she let out a sigh. “I haven’t done this, like this, since I turned.  It feels so right, but please be gentle with me, you naughty man,” breathed Beth. 

I just kissed her again, and then smiled at her and said, “But you're older than me, you’re the seductress,” and then kissed her again.  When we broke for air again, her eyes seemed even darker and yet more sultry. 

With a smile on her lips she said that “For such a young boy, you’re incredibly talented,” and kissed me again.  This time Beth opened her mouth and our tongues entwined for the first time.  The difference in temperature was electric for us both.  I could also feel her sharp canines, even though they were retracted. 

We broke again for air.  We needed to get off the dance floor before we attracted too much attention and became the floor show, as we were starting to eat each other.  I took her by the hand and guided her back to the secluded seats at the back of the dance floor.  We sat there for what seemed like minutes holding
