Andy opened the door the second Lou knocked. He had seen her as she bounded to the door and he had been so excited he couldn't restrain himself to wait five seconds.
"Lou," he said and embraced her quickly. "Thank Merlin you're here. What's your Mum doing here, I thought we agreed we didn't want her to meet my father," he hissed softly so only she could hear. Andy had been terrified of Kittias meeting his father. God, what would she think? She'd probably assume Andy was exactly the same and she'd hate him and convince Lou to never speak to him again!
"Hello Ma'am," he said politely, holding out his hand to shake. "May I take your hat or coat?" He was so excited about Lou being here he didn't actually look to see if Kittias was wearing either.

Andy blushed at the nickname. It sounded so odd having a grown-up say it. His own parents didn't even call him 'Andy', always Andrew, Boy or Son. "Yes Ma'am,' he replied although he definitely didn't think things were better this way.
He blushed even further as Kittias revealed she wasn't wearing anything that Andy could graciously take and hang, like his father had taught him. He laughed though, although glanced nervously at the lounge room door, hoping his father hadn't heard. His father would remmeber that and th emoment Andy returned hom next year, his father would grill him on it until he was satisfied with the answer. Why did that woman offer you a coat, boy, are you some kind of nancy fairy boy?"Andrew," called his father, disturbing Andy from his thoughts
