Quiz Night

In strange surroundings
surrounded by unfamiliar people
wracking my brains for answers
to familiar dumb questions
called by the bingo caller
in a criss cross quiz
you pressed your thigh up close to mine
and shot me a silent smile
that spoke volumes
a moment of covert tenderness
in a public place
that made me want you
even more than usual
there and then.
You won me a T shirt
and re-captured my heart
for the umpteenth time.
We dropped off your ex-lover
at his cozy flat
because it was too cold to walk
I remembered you told me once
that you wanted to make love in the open air
because you'd never done that
"let's go to the park" I suggested
"and make love on the back seat"
"I still haven`t made love outside"
you said after saying "No"
It`s strange how we often think alike.....
