Surprisingly enough for a Friday night, they found a parking place not too far from the Bucket. By the time they approached the crowd outside, Anna had gone completely giddy with anticipation of seeing Sergei.

"Look! There he is! No! Don't look!" Anna was almost apoplectic now and she couldn't help laughing.

Liudmilla's eyes scanned the group of people watching the fight for sign of the object of Anna's affection, but it wasn't Sergei who caught her eye. It was someone new. Someone she didn't know, had never seen before.

"Who is that?" she whispered into Anna's ear without taking her eyes from him.

"Who?"

"Him. That one over there." She indicated with a slight tilt of her chin.

Anna followed Liudmilla's gaze toward the man who was standing with, yet apart from, the rest of the Bucket's patrons. "Oooh... I don't know but he is delicious!"

The newcomer chose that minute to turn, meeting Liudmilla's light blue eyes with his own dark ones. Blushing furiously, she ducked her head and hissed. "Hush, Anna!" Had he heard her? God, she hoped he had not.

"Let's go in. Please?" Liudmilla pleaded, practically dragging her friend inside. Perhaps they wouldn't stay long. Perhaps. She hadn't dared to look back up at him, but something told her that his eyes were still on her.
