The chocolates he had ordered from Paris, had finally arrived and Marcus couldn't contain his excitement. It took all his self control not to dig and stuff his face with them but he had heard Annie, was holding a garden party and he didn't want to go in there on a sugar high.

He made his way down to the party trying to appear casual but kept fidgeting in his suit. It wasn't often that he dressed up like this but he knew Annie, liked to dress up and so he thought he would make the effort.

Marcus entered the tent with a box of her favorite chocolates under his arm and weaved his way through the tables in search for her. He waved and smiled to the kids that were already there. Wow she had done a really good job decorating the place, but she was always good like that. Hmm...where was she?
