With the last remnants of resistance eradicated from my system,I plucked up the courage to ask her for her friendship.I stood up,and started towards her.She just sat there,oblivious to the presence moving towards her, that was trembling all the way.Finally,she decided to notice me and swivelled her pretty little head towards my direction,cocked in a fashion that seemed to ask:"Yes?" I froze. All the courage that had been gathered up during the journey to her position was immeidately torn asunder. Abort. I tried to tell myself,but it wouldn't listen.Slowly,inch by inch,my feet pulled me towards her,towards certain doom.
Alas, doom did not come on a swift steed.Instead blessing came charging forward.She smiled at me.Actually twitched her mouth muscles into a U-shaped smile directed at me.At that instant,I felt my entire being fill with a comfortable sense of ease and pleasure,permeating every nook and cranny of my exsistence.I returned her friendly gesture.
She nodded in acknowledgement.
Then,as I made to leave,I heard a "Psst...Psst..." coming from behind me.It was her,and was motioning me to her side with one slender arm.My eyes widened.My heart skipped a beat.A cold sweat began to break out from every pore on my body.My mind blanked out.My feet,however, continued its normal functioning and moved,with small deliberate steps,towards her once more.
"Aye,aye.You waiting for Paul issit?"she quizzed,in a cute,little girl voice.
"Erm...y-ya...",I nervously replied,throwing grammar to the winds.
She chuckled.A small,lady-like giggle,that was music to my ears."You don't have to be so nervous and fidgety you know...Its not like I would eat you up or something...Hee hee..."She lamented,and giggled again.
"Sure,"It took all of my concentration to say that nonchalantly,but I think my voice still trembled.
"Since we're both waiting for our companions,what say we chat?"She asked,throwing me another one of her radiant smiles.
"Ok!"I must have sounded awful,as I was so happy.Happy would be an understatment though.I was practically over the moon.
And so we did.We exchanged email addresses and names,as well as andecotes about our lives. She seemed particularly interested in my affairs,but it must be wishful thinking on my part,for I refuse to believe that such a perfect female specimen did not have a male partner.Although I very much wanted to believe that,the painful blade of reailty and practicality swept in,making it very very difficult.And I was right.
Soon,Paul arrived.When I was almost going to bid her farewell, she hailed Paul,and much to my amazement and shock,held his waiting hand.
