The items he'd chosen weren't particularly Ben's usual choice of attire for a woman, as he was a man who found a sexy, elegant dress, revealing just enough flesh to spark one's imagination of what lay under, much sexier than clothing that left little to be discovered. Possibly apart from the thigh-high 'fuck me', boots; he wouldn't be a man, if not aroused by a woman wearing those. However, a future liaison with Sky wasn't the reason he'd selected the items he had, but, instead, to add a little humour to their desperate situation. And, to be honest, because he was still a touch miffed that she continued to get the better of them in their exchanges. Whether his plan worked or not was debatable, as although Sky didn't actually laugh out loud or appear to find it as funny as he did, the seductive way in which she spoke the now accustomed reference to his balls made him wonder if the words were a promise or a threat.
He decided, more by a process of wishful thinking than an appraisal of the evidence before him, that it was the first, and when, with, unsurprisingly, the bags in his hand, and her arm around him, he shot Sky a cheeky grin that was lately, becoming a permanent fixture on his features. "I do love ice, and whether it's your hands, your mouth or even your foot, a man can't be choosy when it comes to having a woman pay attention to his balls, Ms Lassiter, even if it hurts. Though, if provided the option, I do prefer the former two over the third, and for them not be be bruised in the process." Oh, she was so much fun, and Ben flicked one last wave and grin to the sales-assistant who continued to watch them as they exited the store.
Along with the hotel clerk, that was now two people who were in no doubt that Schuyler Lassiter was a Hooker, and that was highly entertaining to his dry British sense of humour, particularly when the assumption was made in reference to the future Queen of England. After scouting the food-hall, and not locating a stall offering a steak-and-kidney pie, or even one with proper chips rather than those damn fries the Americans consumed by the bucket-load, Ben joined Sky in ordering a hamburger, absent the fries, and accompanied by a coca-cola presented in a plastic mug so large it could have doubled as a community bathing-pool. The smallest available. "At least in Britain, you'll have proper chips," he said, collecting a fry from her plate after attempting to wrap his mouth around the burger, before deciding it was best attacked with a knife and fork, or possibly a chain-saw, and popping it into his mouth.
His eyebrow raised, "Why are we keeping it up; as the prostitute said to her client," and Ben laughed at his own joke, before swiftly deciding he'd likely be the only one who'd find it amusing, and pretended it'd never been uttered. "Well, the boy at the Hotel made an assumption, due to the location, rather than anything to do with you, so it made sense to go along with it, rather than draw attention to ourselves." No, that came later, when they'd had a gunfight in the Lobby. "But, as to why I keep up the charade?" Spearing a piece of bun with his fork, and dodging to avoid the spray of juices that spurted out, Ben chewed, with his eye on Sky. Eventually he swallowed it down, and shrugged. "Because, as an immature male, I find it amusing, but if you insist, I'll resign as your pimp now. A pity, because we'd have made a fortune."
His eyes gleamed with humour as he pushed his plate aside, the meal only half consumed, but more than enough to sustain him, and stirred his beverage with a straw. "A high-end call-girl, I'd envisage you as, or an an exclusive Escort to the rich and famous. Definitely not a street-walker, or one to work out of two-bit hotels with flea-infested mattresses. However, a Geisha?" Restraining a burp, he pursed his lips, and paused to contemplate the possibility. "I can see that, your pale skin accentuated by the makeup, and dancers physique, in a kimono. High quality silk, hand woven, and the best available, you'd turn every man's head, even the gay ones."
Nodding to himself, the man became stuck in his own imagination for a moment, before he managed to clear away the unbidden thoughts. He was enjoying her company, and the conversation. As random and surreal as it was. "What about me, Ms Lassiter? Do I remind you more of James Bond or Austin Powers, and are pin-stripes slimming, or should I switch to plain black?

As the two bantered and conversed at the table, Rowan Edgar jumped from his seat, in the London Headquarters of MI6, his eyes glued to the information on the screen before him. A purchase had just been made on Ben Robert's credit card, and the computer was in the process of bringing up an image on google maps, and spitting out the GPS co-ordinates.
That only took a matter of seconds, and immediately the precise location was confirmed, Edgar picked up the encrypted phone, and messaged his superiors. However, those superiors were not British. Nor were they Russians loyal to Vlaidimir Oganov, or even the American CIA.
Unbeknownst to all the other parties, there was a fourth player in the game of 'Pin the Tail On Schuyler Lassiter', who neither wanted to kill or save her, but to capture the future Queen of England, and use her as a bartering chip in the furthering of their own ends
