- "You really should stop smoking, Anon."
- >Not this shit again.
- >You agreed to this date with one condition.
- >That Andrew wouldn't bother you about your 'habits'.
- "You agreed not to talk about it." You mutter, sternly, cancer stick clenched between your teeth.
- >He stops walking, toes curling in the sand as he stares you down. Less angry. More disappointed.
- "And you agreed not to indulge in it."
- >He's speaking in that voice again.
- >Ever since he did that stupid fucking girls show he's resorted to going into character when he wanted to seem stern.
- >Said it helped with his confidence.
- "Right well, less you start getting the jitters when you go without talking about it for too long , I think I've still got the upper ground here."
- >He gives an exasperated sigh, and you continue your walk.
- >This was supposed to be a romantic stroll.
- >He's too god damn stubborn.
- >He can't change you.
- >Your walk has you come across a humble little shack near the beach.
- >It's near closing time for the place.
- >It's just you and Andrew sitting across from each other. Silently staring down your food
- >He snears in something resembling disgust as you shovel down your food.
- >You chuckle, mouth full, as he daintily dips his fries, one at a time.
- >Your first date was so much different than this.
- >You can't remember much of it, but Andrew insists that you were absolutely adorable.
- >Must be why he put out.
- >You can certainly remember that.
- >His toned form writhing under you.
- >Him screaming your name throughout the night.
- >His big-
- "Let's get out of here."
- >He stands rather abruptly, bringing you out of your trance.
- "Yeah."
- >Your walk back to Andrew's motorcycle is silent.
- >He lazily tosses you your helmet as he straddles the impressive machine, donning his own.
- >You take your spot behind him.
- >He won't let you get too personal anymore.
- >Not since his coworkers asked about the guy in the bitch seat, holding onto his waist.
- >Cunts.
- >He takes you to an all too familiar night club.
- >This is where the two of you met.
- >You were just trying to wet your whistle after a long week's work.
- >He and his co-workers were celebrating the success of something or another.
- >You weren't all that interested in his personality at the time.
- >Tonight's crowd is of a similar makeup. Lot of lonely looking guys, crowding around slutty drunkards.
- >You like this place.
- >Wallflower mode activated.
- >The previously mentioned sluts pull themselves from their respective crowds in order to crowd around Andrew.
- >He's all smiles as he leads his new friends to the dance floor.
- >He's a great dancer.
- >You always end up stumbling over yourself.
- >And he laughs at you.
- >You used to make him laugh alot.
- "What yah havin, big guy?" The lithe young woman behind the bar asks as you approach.
- >You're pelted with apples.
- "Reds' apple ale." You respond dryly. Inglorious doesn't drink, so you get the shit I saw on TV.
- "Sure thing."
- >By the time he makes his way to you you're on your third bottle.
- >He's draped his jacket across his arm and the t-shirt he wore beneath is soaked in sweat.
- >His hairs matted to his forehead.
- >He looks pretty cute.
- "Hey." You say simply, "Gonna join me?" You ask nodding to the stool next to your own.
- >He shakes his head and puts his jacket over your shoulder.
- "Hold onto this for me, Anon." And with that he's left again.
- >You sigh and drain down the last of your drink.
- >You'll get shit faced at this point.
- >And he doesn't like to take you home drunk.
- >You shake your bottle expectantly, in the bar keep's general direction.
- >Hopefully you've got enough for a cab
- >Okay.
- >Okay Anon.
- >You're drunk.
- >You're drunk and you're going to make an ass of yourself.
- >You catch Andrew on the way out.
- >He's surrounded by scantily dressed women and a few frat looking fuckers who'll be preying on the drunker of the bunch later tonight.
- >He looks away as you approach.
- "Hey."
- >He's ignoring you.
- "Hey!"
- >See if he can ignore you when you're in his face like this.
- "Fuck do you think you're doing?!" You shout/slur.
- >Your breath causes him to real back in disgust.
- >Fucker's totally sober.
- "I don't know what you're talking about, sir." There's venom in his voice as he shoves you away from him.
- "You think you can leave me just like that? With your fucking jacket?" You hold up the offending garmet. The only thing linking him to you.
- >The area around you is quieter than it was before you started this.
- >The girls who are sober enough to give a fuck look skeptically between you and Andrew.
- >You're hurting his reputation again.
- >You don't care.
- "How'd you get my jacket?" He asks without missing a beat. Stupid fucking actor.
- "Whah?"
- >He looks furious now.
- "You fucking stole it didn't you, ass hole?"
- >Wait.
- >Wait no this isn't how this goes.
- "Andrew what're you-"
- "Fuck off of me!"
- >He tears his jacket from your grasp and shoves you to the ground.
- "Come on, guys. Don't let this dude ruin our night." He commands leading their group out of the night club, a few of the more aware member snickering at you as they file out of the place.
- >Oh god you're crying now.
- >He just blew you off completely.
- >Not only that, he pretended not to know you.
- >You scramble to your feat and out the door just in time to see his motorcycle leading a convoy of vehicles towards his house.
- >There's a bitch in the bitch seat.
- >Holding onto him dearly.
- >Wearing your helmet.
- >Fuck.
