“You’re a stupid prick at times, but you’re not a cheat, Eli. Anyway, where’s the lovely Mia now?”

“Taking a shower.”

“A couple of nights a week, usually at the weekend.”

“You stay there?”

“Not often, she’s got a flatmate who smells like farts because of the bloody awful vegetarian curries that she insists on eating for almost every meal.”

“Maybe Mia should move in here.” He looked at me with a smirk that said everything about the shit stirring dick he was at times.

“Yeah maybe,” I replied, calling his bluff to shut his antics down. “I think Mia moving in here would be a great idea.”

“Oh my God, really?”
