Heidi
It’s Tuesday the twenty-sixth of July, the first week of the English
school summer holidays, and I’m in the kitchen making bread when my
phone vibrates in the back pocket of my jeans, announcing the arrival of a
message.
Assuming it’s another unwanted text, my heart sinks as I take the phone
out with floury fingers. I do a comical double-take when I see it’s a Facebook
message from Lawrence Oates.
I feel a wave of relief, then a flutter of pleasure deep inside. My heart
racing, I go over to the sink and wash my hands, then pick up the phone and
bring up the message. It’s short but sweet.
Your Royal Highness! Don’t suppose you’d be around for a Zoom call
at 8 p.m.?
I laugh at his greeting. My full name is Heidi Rose Huxley, and the first
time we met, he commented that my initials were HRH.
Still smiling, I sit on the kitchen chair, bring up his Facebook profile,
and study his picture.
His real name is Lawrence, but everyone calls him Titus. He got the
nickname from the Antarctic explorer of the same name who sacrificed
himself for his teammates in 1912 by going out into a blizzard. That
Lawrence Oates was nicknamed Titus after the English priest who invented a
conspiracy to kill the English king, Charles II, in 1678.
How do I know all this? Because when I was sixteen, tipsy on one glass
of sparkling wine at my brother Oliver’s twenty-first birthday party, I asked
his gorgeous mate for a kiss. Instead of getting exasperated with the irritating
young teen who was trying to pretend she was sassy and sophisticated, he
proceeded to kiss the living daylights out of me. Shy and innocent, I’d never
even had a boy kiss me on the cheek before, so to be French kissed by a
gorgeous older guy completely blew me away.
After the kiss, I found out everything I could about him, convinced I’d
found my Prince Charming and that we were destined for a happily ever
after.
We weren’t, of course, and unsurprisingly after the party he didn’t
contact me and declare his undying love. We did see each other relatively
frequently over the years, either at Oliver’s business club or at my parents’
house. Every time our gazes met with a mischievous smile as we both clearly
recalled that kiss, although we never spoke of it openly.
