They had known each other for years, but never been close, something was different tonight. Gerry had invited Colleen to be his plus one at a friend's wedding, with purely platonic intentions, his ex had left him shortly after he'd sent in the RSVP and he didn't want it to go to waste.
The wedding had gone as expected, the bride was fashionably late, best man suitably derogatory of the groom, they had eaten, drank, danced and enjoyed each other's company.
After the party they had sneaked a bottle of wine back to his room, and sat on the floor sharing it, as time had gone by they had moved closer and closer to each other. Until now, they were sat facing each other, her legs over his, but not quite around him.
He had never seen her dressed like this, normally she wore track bottoms around him, sure he'd seen photos of her dressed up for a night out or at formal dinners, but they didn't do her justice, she was stunning. She wore a simple black strapless black dress, seamed stockings, pointed, glossy black heels, with a red bottom.
Her dirty blonde hair was up, but with a few strands draping either side of her face, green eyes, she was slim, around 5ft4, and if he were to guess he'd say a 30B, and her ass, wow. He'd always known how amazing it was, since he had first glimpsed her in her athletics gear at the track years before.
Colleen looked at Gerry, had he noticed her slowly moving closer to him? She had never seen him like this, usually he was in his running clothes, simple tshirts and shorts, but tonight he was in a tailored charcoal grey suit and waist coat, white shirt, his tie had a floral pattern.
He had trimmed his beard neat, his hair was short and messy, and his eyes, had they always been so blue?
