The ball had been an absolute success. Those not coming had paid, those coming had paid. In the end they'd raised plenty of money - which meant that their work was going to be at least a little bit easier in the future.
It was strange that Miles had turned up though - with a wife, no less!!! He was quite amused by that in fact. A wife, and a kid - Merlin that man got himself in trouble. Maybe that was why he'd acted so...well he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Not that it mattered.
What mattered now tough, was getting back to Susan, and seeing how she was. It had not failed him that she'd left early, or that she'd looked highly uncomfortable being there, in spite of being absolutely beautiful. He only hoped she was feeling well.
It didn't take long to reach her, and to knock on the door before letting himself in.
'Susan?' he called out, hoping she hadn't fallen asleep already.
