"Kristyn!? Why are you with this scum!?" Said Kepler.
"Should I? Or..." Tyler asked.
But in reply I simply said, "I've got this one Djad Ahbi."
So I stood up to speak to Kepler. As we walked a little ways from the table to speak privately he grabs my arm and pulls me along.
"I cannot believe you would do this to me! We're leaving now!"
I allow him to drag me all the way outside... just so I could say this.
"First of all!? Let go of me before I break your hand, arm and shoulder! Second, we're through! Yeah I know it's kinda screwed up how I just got with someone else without telling you but I don't care! You're a jerk! For the past 2 years you've haven't even cared about me! We've just been going through the motions! As a matter of fact you didn't even come to see me once I got here! Were you gonna come see me at all!? Also, You're here for a date with someone else obviously. You have flowers and you're aaaaall dressed up. So do us both a favor and just leave my date and I alone. Understand!?"
He was in shock. He was speechless. And I was trying so hard not to laugh in his face. So he went off to enjoy his date while I returned to mine.
"Sorry about the interruption." I said as I sat back down at the table.
"Ya know... he grabbed your arm... and he's still alive... you feeling ok?" Tyler said.
I laughed and said, "Yes. I'm feeling absolutely awesometastic."
Tyler replied "HA!... That's... that's not a word."
"Well it is now Djad Ahbi! Now drink up! Next rounds on me!"
After lots... and I mean lots of drinks, I was a drunken mess. Tyler however can't get drunk because of how his healing ability works. It starts with internal damage first and heals outward bodily damage second. What I didn't know at the time was that he pretended to be drunk with me just so I didn't embarrass myself alone. He was sweet like that. So at the end of the night he takes me home to my Mother and Sisters, and he heads home for the night.
