‘It didn’t.’

‘Shame.’

‘I forgot my bag, I’m just going to get it…’ she offered by way of explanation, but as the lift door started to close she pressed it open. There was a pang, a twinge, almost a snapping.

‘No—up…’ he grinned. ‘To the roof. Do you want to join me?’

‘I’m sure another job will come along…’ she said, watching a slow smile spread on his face as he got her dry humour.

‘I’m actually going to Paris.’

‘Lovely.’

‘Helipad’s on the roof.’

‘They usually are.’
