Enoch rolled his eyes to the heavens and, had he been a religious man, he might have sent up prayers to his maker to see his through this troubling time with one of the most awkward individuals he had ever encountered. As it was, he was not, so he did the next best thing and the one thing he knew would always make his predicament feel better.

“For fuck’s sake woman!” He shouted to the air, knowing full well they were alone and, if anything, his bellow was just as likely to draw help rather than condemnation for his language. He didn’t much care either way. Using the brief silence that followed he took several long strides towards her and before she could resist, before she could even think of doing so, he drew her face to his and leant down to press his lips to hers.

It sent a thrill through him but he had pulled away before he quite realised and then he was looking into her eyes, much closer than he has been before.

“I think that counts as success.”
