We went our seperate ways, I walked into the 7/11, slightly shaking due to my nerves, and picked up some painkillers as well as a packet of skittles to treat myself.
I was so overwhelmed with what had just happened, the man of my dreams just asked to get coffee with me.
I got in my van and drove straight back to the hotel, Sharon was sitting at the lobby desk reading a 1970's edition of 'Playboy' and didn't even seem to notice me speed walking past her to get into my room.
I restrained from calling the number on the card for a couple of hours until I finally gave in.
"I-is this Shrek?" I asked. I felt ridiculous to have even called in the first place.
"Sure is, who's this?" He said in a cheery tone.
"I'm the guy that bumped into you outside of the 7/11." I gave a little laugh.
"Oh of course! How are you?"
"I'm feeling great actually aha." I wasn't lying, talking to him made me feel so warm. I decided to ask him about that coffee date.
"Hey so I was thinking that we could maybe get coffee tomorrow around 12:30?" My nerves faded away, this is what I've always wanted.
"That sounds great! It's a date then." I could feel the tension between us.
"Y-yeah, I guess it is." The fact that I would soon be going on my first date with a man just hit me.
We hung up the phone soon after and I felt like a teen again. Butterflies were fluttering all around my stomach and I couldn't stop smiling.
It was already around 5pm but I just wanted a way to pass the time, I lay down in bed and turned on the TV, although it was simply background noise for my thoughts.
I couldn't stop thinking about how the coffee date with Shrek would go, it had been years since I last went on a date with anyone. What if I gave him the wrong impression and said the wrong things? Would he think any less of me if he knew that I had never dated a guy before?
My mind was racing with intrusive and anxious thoughts, eventually I had finally drifted off to sleep after what felt like a constant battle against my brain.
