After a while, when Billy still hadn't shown up, Gemma began to start getting ready to leave, annoyed.
"Gemma".
She looked up to the person who had called her name - a pretty young woman, blue eyed with long blonde hair and even longer legs. She took in the woman's short skirt - or belt, as some may call it - and barely there top and narrowed her eyes, thinking where she could possibly know her from. She didn't recognise her, but somehow the woman knew her. She didn't look like a Live Youth or Rebel Uprising fan.
"Hi..." she said, unsure of what else she could say. There was a moment of silence.
"I heard yours and Billy's news", the girl said - not as quietly as she would have liked.
"You... what? How?" Gemma asked, shocked, her mouth falling open.
"It doesn't matter how. I would say congratulations, except that I know you and Billy will never work", she sneered, her american accent suddenly thick, an ugly look crossing her face. Gemma sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Look, I don't know who you are, or why this would be any of your business. But you're wrong. Very wrong. You don't know a thing about Billy and I!"
"Oh, really?" the girl laughed. "I know Billy a lot more than you realise. In fact, it was he who told me about it. Yesterday."
Gemma shook her head and smiled.
"Billy wasn't even out yesterday. Look, I've had enough of this. I'm going", Gemma said, standing.
"Billy was here yesterday. With me. Ask the barman. Why look so shocked? Was he meant to have plans with you or something?"
Gemma tried to hide her surprise, turning quickly and walking out of TDB, tears stinging her eyes. Billy did have plans with her last night. But told her he was at home with a "headache". What was he doing here with her?! She couldn't believe this was happening again - not this soon!
Back inside TDB, the blonde laughed out loud, then licked her lips. She would savour this moment. Yes, Billy was coming home, once Gemma told him it just wouldn't work. That was a certainty. Abbi flicked her long blonde hair out of her face and swept out of the place, her smile unable to leave her lips.
