Luke got out of the car, Q standing in front of him, holding out his hand and Luke took it. "Thank you Q." Luke smiled.

Terry came to his side, "ready?"

Luke hummed, "as I'll ever be."

Q got back in to the car and drove away. There was paparazzi taking photos as this was an important event with people up high in the celebrity world coming in from all corners of the world.

Luke wore his sunglasses, looking around as Terry walked behind him.

"Hemmings." Michael said in his ear, "head to the bar, don't get too dunk, we don't want you falling in to Grean's pants just yet." Luke rolled his eyes, but listened and headed towards the main part of the audience seating to watch the race close up.

Luke made it to the bar, asking for a martini before Terry came to his side. "Don't see him yet." Terry mumbled.

Luke was given his drink, taking the olive from the drink and in to his mouth as he looked around.

"Do you see him Mike?" Luke asked.

"Not yet." He said before he heard Liv yell.

"There!"

"Two o'clock, Luke." Michael said and Luke glanced over to see Reece Grean, heading straight towards him.

Luke looked down at his glass and then to Reece before he moved forward, Terry watching on. Luke walked straight towards Reece, bumping in to him and spilling his drink all across Reece's crisp white shirt and grey blazer.

Luke gasped, "oh my god I'm so sorry." Luke bent down to pick up the glass he'd dropped and he heard Michael hiss.

"Damn Luke, he's already staring." Michael said making Luke smirk slightly before he stood up again.

Luke met Reece's brown eyes and the brunette couldn't stop staring at the blond boy. "No problem, gorgeous." Reece said, taking the glass from Luke and putting it down on a table beside them. Reece looked up and down Luke's body, seeing the skirt and the soft looking legs and his heels. He was gorgeous.

Luke noticed and lifted the sunglasses to rest on his head, biting his lip and meeting Reece's eyes. He put his hand out to the billionaire, "Luke Jones, lovely to meet you."

Reece grinned, "Reece Grean, lovely to meet you too Luke."

Luke felt a hand on his lower back before Terry stood beside him. "Are you alright sir?" He asked, glancing at Reece.

Luke nodded, "I'm fine thank you, go get yourself a drink." He said.

Terry nodded, he knew Luke could do it. So he left Luke alone.

Luke looked back at Reece, and the brunette went to Luke's side, his elbow towards Luke.

Luke took his elbow and the two went back over to where Reece had come from. They stopped at the very front of the balcony of the VIP area of the audience seating. "It's very fancy," Luke said.

"You must be use to fancy." Reece said, looking down at Luke, he couldn't stop staring at his legs. They went on for miles.

"I'm really not." Luke said, "I tend to stay away from the families fortune and name." He said making Reece chuckle.

Luke put his glasses back on his nose and looked at Reece.

"He's gorgeous." Liv said in Luke's ear making Luke smirk slightly.

Reece looked down slightly at the blond, only an inch height difference. He tutted, lifting his hand to take the glasses off of Luke's face. "I'd much rather see your pretty eyes." He said, folding the glasses up and putting them on the small table behind him.

Reece took off his grey blazer, it was damp from the spilt drink and he put it on his chair.

"Flattery will get you no where." Luke said, teasing him. Like he was suppose to.

"I was hoping you wouldn't say that." Reece said, before he turned. "Jeffrey, get me and my guest a champagne each." He called and it was only a few seconds later that they were being handed a glass each.

Luke sipped his alcohol, "I don't know much about horses or racing." He said.

Reece chuckled, "it's not very hard to understand, you bet on a horse and if they win, you win, simple as."

Luke laughed, "oh, that's easy."

"Would you like to bet? It'll be starting soon and I ran in to you as I was going to bet myself." Reece said, finishing off his glass.

"Alright then." Luke smiled, putting his glass down before they both walked over to the betting station. Luke was so glad he practised walking in heels, he would've tripped and died if he hadn't have.

Reece had a hand on Luke's lower back, the two looking over the bets on the horses.

Luke pursed his lips, "vote on Bagerra." He said, "Like the black panther in Jungle Book." He said.

"Are you sure? He hasn't won a race all season." Reece asked, he wasn't keen on losing money, albeit, he had a lot of it.

"I'm certain, maybe it's his lucky date." Luke smirked, his hand touching Reece's arm that rested on the surface in front of them, running his fingers across his soft tanned skin. "It'll be worth your while."

"If he loses, you owe me." He said before putting the bet down for ten thousand dollars. They were handed their ticket and the man said good luck before they headed back to their previous standing position by the balcony.

The race began shortly after and Luke watched for number fourteen, the horse he'd bet on and when he noticed he was towards the lead of the race he smirked and tapped Reece hand that was holding the balcony edge, the other arm around Luke's slim waist.

As the final horses got to the final stretch, Reece squeezed Luke's waist and then Bagerra pushed forward and won.

Luke instantly turned to Reece, a large beaming smile on his face. "I guess I know my horses well enough."

Reece smiled at Luke, "I guess you do Jones."

"I might just be your lucky charm Reece Grean."
