We found him. Chance that is.
Eventually.
Brooding about a bit and reminded him that he is halfway through the dates. And raiding the fridge for snacks. He looked at us and gave us a wry grin.
"Yeah," he replied, "that's the good news. And now for the bad news.... I'm halfway through my dates!"
Curious, we asked him his honest opinions so far and all he would say was this....
"Well, I've been enlightened with each and every female .... so far."
That didn't tell us much. We're guessing that he's waiting until the vote off, before he'll say anything. Either that, or he's got something up his sleeve. He doesn't actually tell us much, keeping mainly to himself.
But that's all about to change.
So, we remind him that it's Averyelle's turn today.
"And where are you taking us... ahem, her?"
That's when his eyes lit up.
"Ahhh.... now THAT would be telling!!!
He taps the side of his nose secretively, before picking up the phone and dialling a number. We try to listen in, but he's talking in some secret code or something.... So we give in.
"Oh, so another childhood venue is out of the question then?"
His face darkens slightly.
Ouchies! We hit a sore spot there.
"Well, I'll have you know, this is by 'special request'."
Our curiosity piqued, we go searching Averyelle out and find her sitting with Bailey, quietly reading.... or at least in the pretense of reading. She's really jittery with nerves and puts her book down, sighing deeply.
"Nervous?"
"Um.... no.."
Straightening her dress, she walks to the piano and tinkers with the keys, a discordant plink plink sound echoing in the spacious library.
"Ready?"
She nearly jumps out of her skin as she hears Chance's voice through the archway.
"Any idea where we're going?" she whispers.
"None, nope, sorry. But he did say this was by 'special request'.
"Oooohhh, I like the sound of that!"
"Coming!"
She bounces out of the room, waving to Bailey who'd joined her earlier and was reading about Couples Counselling, and putting on what she hopes is her cheeriest smile, even though she's as nervous as heck underneath.
"See ya later!"
"Have fun," Bailey replies smiling her usual serene smile.
With that, both Averyelle and Chance take a walk outside.
"Um, not taking the car?"
"No, not tonight, it's just a short walk away."
"Oh, okay."
"Don't worry, you'll feel the benefit when you get there."
"Oh right."
He was right. It WAS a short walk. They stopped in front of a 5* star hotel, the Golden Sun Resort and Health Spa, and Averyelle's eyes gleamed wickedly.
"Ooh, this doesn't look like a date to me," she pointed out, "more like a dirty weekend!"
That's exactly what we were thinking. Chance shook his head and walked around the front entrance.
"What I've got planned," he said calmly, "is much better than that."
As we turned the corner, realization dawned upon us.
He was taking Averyelle to the Spa!!!
Not just ANY Spa, this one was an exclusive Platinum Plumbob Members Only Spa!!! And luckily for us, Chance was a full paying member thanks to his influences around the place. And he'd gotten special dispensation, to use the Spa, as seeing fit!!!
Now how about that for pulling a few strings?
The only down side was that some of the complex was still under refurbishment, and the walls were still the bare plasterboard. But Chance wasn't to be phased. He was determined to make sure that Averyelle had the best possible service.
That 'secret code'? It appears that Chance is fluent in SimMandarin!
Also, he explained that it's much quieter during the early hours of the day here, so they'll virtually have the place to themselves.
How nice to have that amount of influence!!!
"Now what shall we do first?" he asked Averyelle, as she gaped about the place.
"Um, well...."
She slipped off one of her shoes and rubbed it gingerly.
"That's it then..... we're going for a Swedish massage!"
Averyelle blushed a little.
"Oh, don't worry, they're in separate rooms and you get to choose your masseuse."
"Ah, right."
With that, choosing their own personal masseuse, a guy for Averyelle....
... a gal for Chance....
..... the two of them popped into the adjoining rooms to enjoy a full 5* massage from the hotel's best masseuses, whilst we, the film crew sat around waiting.
When they finally came out, Averyelle's face was on of absolute bliss.
"Enjoyed that?"
"Yep."
They kissed, tenderly, which was really sweet, just as the sun was beginning to rise over the horizon, casting a lovely amber glow across this star-crossed pair.
"Good."
"What do you fancy next?"
Averyelle's eyes fell upon the sauna's opposite and glittered wickedly.
"I've always fancied one of those."
"Okay, sauna it is!"
Whipping out of their clothes and wrapping towels around themselves, they step into the steaming vortex that is the sauna room, and relax.
If Averyelle thought she was getting a little woohoo in there, she was sadly mistaken. It was far too hot and she had to come out before her auburn hair started to frizz. But still, rosy cheeked and beaming, she looked refreshed and happy.
"Nice?"
"Ohh, lovely."
It was then that these two decided to drop their politeness and start being themselves. We've noticed that for a while, Averyelle has been dying to have some 'alone time' with Chance, but noted that he was always following Sera everywhere.
Now that they were on their own (apart from us, the camera crew), she had her opportunity.
And boy, did Chance enjoy it too as they had some fun together.
She thought he was 'hot', and he returned the sentiments too.
We thought Chance was a quiet, secretive kind of guy. But here, he feels so secure in Averyelle's presence that he can't help gossiping about one of the locals!!!
Naughty boy!!!!
Trust us.... these two were like a pair of naughty kids, gossiping and being devious together.
But that fun was soon to end though. Laughing so hard at some of her dirty jokes, Chance nearly wet himself. So he went to the 'boys' room, whilst Averyelle waited outside.
Espying the vending machines, she felt peckish and slipped in a couple of simoleans.
And then sat her rump down in the deserted coffee shop to munch happily on a gigantic bag of chocolate.
We could only gape at her as she shovelled the food down. She looked up at us and grinned.
"Never diet," she explained, "have one of those bodies that can take any junk food without showing anywhere."
Lucky gal.
Well, Chance came back out and smiled when he saw her polishing off the last few crumbs.
"Sorry, was hungry."
"Hey, no problem, I like a girl with a healthy appetite."
Then they started flirting again with Averyelle on full charm offensive, with Chance sucking it up BIG TIME!
She was determined to force Sera out of Chance's mind and to concentrate fully on her instead!
And it worked!
Sadly, eventually, the date had to come to an end.
"That was awesome!" Averyelle declared, "what a hell of a dream date that was, thanks Chance!"
In her excitement, she planted one hell of a kiss on his lips, just to let him know that firstly, she'd thoroughly enjoyed her date....
.... and secondly, to give him something really unforgettable!!!!
What a gal!!!!
And so ended a really good and pleasant date for all.
Next on the list is ....
