The Finest Line
good.”
    “Honey, I don’t think you’re
going to see any of them in the Olympics.” Miranda laughed and
pondered. “Pole dancing in the Olympics... I believe that could
catch on.”
    Mairead was sure she had
sabotaged any hope of Olympic glory. If there was still any chance
she would certainly try but nothing could be achieved until she
knew where she stood with James.
    As if Kylie had read her
thoughts she took Miranda’s hand. “Miranda, the girl is dying here.
Where is her man?”
    Miranda smiled weakly and
indicated a booth near the front of the stage. The high back kept
its occupants hidden from them. “They’ve been there for a while.”
She reached across and grasped Mairead’s hands. “Honey, are you
sure that’s not his girlfriend. She’s a bit of a sensation
herself.”
    Mairead felt a little uneasy.
“How do you mean?”
    Miranda shot a concerned look to
Kylie before turning back to Mairead. “Look, I’m going to take you
down the front there on the other side. You’ll be able to see them
clearly then without being noticed.”
    Mairead and Kylie followed
Miranda through the crowd on the far side that preferred to lurk in
a much darker area. Whilst navigating through tables, chairs and
people, Mairead glanced at the booth that was becoming angled for a
better view. When they were finally at the front, she pushed gently
through some people and looked across the room.
    James was sitting with his arm
around the most stunning woman Mairead had ever seen.

CHAPTER TEN

    Kylie and Miranda watched
Mairead drain another glass of scotch before Kylie grasped her
hand. “Let’s just go home Mairead. Or get out of here at
least.”
    Mairead grinned and shook her
head. “I love it here. Those girls are fucking amazing.” She swayed
along to the music as she watched the dancers and then turned to
Miranda. “What time do you go on?”
    “In about half an hour,” Miranda
looked at her sadly. “I’m so sorry Mairead.”
    Mairead laughed and shook her
head. “I’m great Miranda. I achieved something tonight. In fact I
achieved a few things tonight. I now know James doesn’t love me so
that saves me making a complete douche bag of myself. I also know
that he’s a fucking liar and a complete arsehole. Never would have
thought he was into the whole blonde with big tits thing but what’s
there not to be in to? She’s fucking hot.”
    Even from a distance there was
no denying that the woman with James was beautiful. The lights had
reflected off her white blonde hair and showed clearly the olive
skin of a flawless face. Her large breasts were cleaved together by
a tight dark brown dress that narrowed to a silver belt around a
small waist. The rest of her was hidden under a low table but with
her head resting against James’ shoulder it was easy to see that
she matched his height.
    Mairead continued. “I also made
a startling discovery about myself tonight. I want to be a pole
dancer.”
    Her friends laughed and Mairead
frowned at them. “I would thank you ladies to take me seriously.
I’ve been studying those girls up there and while I’m totally
amazed at their talent, I believe there are a couple of moves I
could add to their choreography.”
    Miranda laughed and clapped her
hands. “I would give my entire night’s wages to see that. Mairead
Kavanagh, champion gymnast turned pole dancer.”
    Mairead grinned wickedly.
“You’re on, but not the wages thingy. I’ll do it for free.”
    Kylie could see where this was
leading. “Mairead Kavanagh, you stop this right now. One journalist
in this place and you would be on the front page of every paper in
this country.”
    “She could wear a mask.” Miranda
was caught up in the fun.
    “I could wear a mask,” Mairead
giggled.
    Miranda started bouncing up and
down in her seat. “Oh my god, you could wear my brand new costume.
Haven’t even taken it out of the plastic yet but it’s fucking
stunning.”
    Kylie was furious. “Fuck up
Miranda. She is
