We skip Annie whenever I have actuallyn’t seen her in a little while, and I’m grateful – in a strange kind of grumpy means – that she teases me personally away from my shell every once in awhile. That knows, maybe i shall satisfy some body tonight that is sexy? It may take place.
“Megs! ” We hear Annie’s sound on the music before I see her, after which she’s virtually climbing through the legs and arms regarding the dance floor to get at me personally.
“Hi. Therefore, I was got by you out here, you gonna purchase me personally a beverage now? ”
“Shouldn’t it end up being the other method around? You get me personally a drink for dragging your lame ass from your apartment and offering you A saturday night that is awesome? ”
“Well, we don’t understand yet so it’s likely to be awesome, do I? ”
Annie quirks her eyebrows.
“You’re beside me, babe. Needless to say it is likely to be awesome. ”
She drags me personally to your club, requests two shots of one thing, and fingers me personally one.
“Bottoms up? ” We state, hesitantly.
“If I was thinking i possibly could allow you to get bottoms up, we’d be at your home, maybe not right here. But yeah, bottoms up. ”
She lifts the cup to her lips and takes it within one swig. I’m still holding mine in front side of me personally, attempting to put my mind around her terms. Annie has jokingly flirted beside me many times – more in the way of attempting to help make me personally blush or break a grin. However the “bottoms up” remark had been stated by having a sort that is different of: severe and intense.
“What? You likely to take in it or do i must too do that one? ” she says, the momentary spell broken now as she laughs at me personally.
“Ok, okay, carrying it out, ” I laugh, and attempt to down the thing that is whole one swallow.
Bad concept. The alcohol strikes the relative straight straight straight back of my neck and we immediately seize up into a coughing, like fire most of the way on to my lung area.
Annie chuckles, rubs my as well as takes my hand.
“Come on, I’ve got some buddies at a dining dining table into the straight straight straight back. We could stay, ” she states.
A couple of hours later on, I’ve made of a dozen brand brand brand new buddies, most of who appear to have currently learned about “Annie’s companion. ” I’ve been told I’m “as gorgeous as Annie said” and therefore most people are therefore excited to “finally fulfill me personally. ”
I make brief eye contact with Annie when they say these things. She smiles and shrugs, appears almost bashful – a feeling I’ve never truly seen on her before.
Sooner or later, I lean up to her and whisper inside her ear.
“How come we have actually such an admirer club? Everyone knows whom i will be! ”
“What can I state, i love you. So I talk I guess about you a lot. I’ve missed you. We don’t understand, Megs. Possibly it is my unrequited crush – the more I can’t perhaps you have, the greater I need you? ”
I choke away fun.
“A crush. On me personally? Funny. ”
