So a couple of weeks ago my friend (A) and I went to a bar to shoot pool and to catch up. We sat at a table near the bar to eat. At some point in the night the waitress came over with drink refills (our drinks were no were near empty) and said they were from the guys over there. There were several different groups of guys "over there", so we had no clue who sent the drinks. I got up to get change to play pool and an older gentleman told me who the drinks were from and apologized if his friend was making me uncomfortable (apparently the friend had been staring at me all night), he was only staring because he thought I was hot. I smiled and explained that we didn't know where the drinks had come from and that I hadn't noticed anyone staring. I went back and told A. the story, in my head I was thinking that it probably was from the gentleman but still fairly intrigued. I've never had some random person buy me a drink before. A little bit later the waitress came back with two shots and this time pointed out who they were from. The two guys came over each with their own shots, one was the older gentleman the other was a young guy (from here on out referred to as L and T). The waitress also had her own shot. We all "cheers"ed then took the shots. L convinced A to go pick out music on the jukebox and I asked T if he'd like to sit down. We talked for a bit, with several awkward pauses. In my head I was thinking "Oh my God this guy is really cute and he's into me? no way (small giggle in my head)". The other two eventually came back and the four of us talked for awhile more. L kept trying to turn the focus back to T and I. We had more drinks then T and I went to shoot pool while L and A went to choose more music. I don't remember how many rounds of pool we played but we were there till the bar closed at midnight. We were all standing around awkwardly outside A and I trying to tell L and T good bye. I told T that if he was in town Sunday we should do this again. He said alright. There was a pause so I took the initiative and asked if he wanted my number. He said yes, so I gave it to him. A and I departed and went back to my place. We had just gotten home when T called under the pretense of wanting to make sure I didn't give him a fake number. We talked for a bit and A said I had a big smile on my face the whole time. I was thinking that night was so exciting. Oh and the guys had also bought the two of us roses when the lady came around selling then.
The next morning I woke up thinking last night had to be a dream. I thought this till I walked into the kitchen and saw the rose and realized it was real. This made me smile, I'd never been picked up in a bar before. T called me later that afternoon and we talked for a bit. The four of us met back up at the same bar Sunday night. Kind of a repeat of Friday night only this time with more flirting between T and I and less awkward moments. At eleven A and I started trying to leave, we both had an early morning the next day. T kept trying to convince me to go out somewhere else. L separated A and I so T could talk to me alone. T said "you think I'm boring and ugly." I said I wasn't thinking that at all. T said then what are you thinking? I said I didn't want to say. (What I was really thinking was that he was hot and I can't believe he's into me.) T asked why not? And I repeated that I didn't want to say. T asked if it was a secret and then leaned in close for me to tell him in his ear. I felt my heart racing, a million thoughts were going through my head (the most prominent being should I peck him on the cheek). I eventually told him that I didn't think he was boring and that I found him attractive, (and no I didn't kiss him). We stood around talking some more, he moved in closer and closer to "block the wind". (It was quite windy and a bit chilly that night). Every time he moved closer my heart raced and all I could think was Oh my God, oh my God. Part of me wanted T to kiss me, the other was thinking of slapping him if he tried. Eventually I was able to get A's attention and I told T good night, A and I went home.
Thus this ends my weekend fling. T was a really great guy but just not the type I could see having a relationship with. It was nice while it lasted and I'm sure if I was to do it over again I wouldn't change any thing, well maybe I would ;-)
