As she wandered round the car showroom her eyes were drawn to not only the vehicle she had visited to view but also to the young salesman looking in her direction as she traced her fingers over the contours of the chassis.
As he approached she smiled, realising it was her flirtatious grin are often used when in a bar, not a car showroom.
His confident strong voice took her by surprise. He was a young seemingly timid guy by appearance, but his voice and words suggested the confidence was hidden, subtly.
As they conversed about the car and it's additional features she explained that the price wasn't quite in keeping with her budget, much to her annoyance.
The young confident man looked about the showroom. She thought maybe he was looking for the next customer, put off by her rather lack lustre negotiation skills.
"Come into my office. We may be able to sort something out," he ordered. Turning as he headed towards a little room at the back of the office. Watching his shoes click on the tiled showroom floor, tracing up the creases in his suit trousers, over his jacket she found herself following his command.
Stepping into his office he closed the door. Her eyes looking at the handle then up at him. She felt herself still adorning the facial expressions of a night at a bar, teasing and flirting with men. Not those associated with negotiating in a car showroom on a Thursday afternoon.
"So, what's the shortfall?" His confidence tone filled the room. He sat on the edge of his desk as she perched on the edge of the chair placed in front of the desk.
"Well my budget is £26k. So, I make that one thousand pounds," she replied, as she said the words she realised there was a large gap between the figures.
"How badly do you want the car is the question?" He grinned. One leg draped over the desk, shoe placed on the floor as the other dangled over the edge of the desk.
"It is exactly what I've been looking for. The right additional extras as well."
"So you really want it? Like REALLY want it?" His grin turned into those looks you've seen in the bar, when teasing men playfully. The look of a man who can tell he has her hooked.
"I guess I do, I do.... REALLY want it," a giggle emerged from her mouth as she crossed her legs leaning back in the chair suddenly feeling not only very relaxed but also rather promiscuous.
