It was already seven days since the interview.And seven days since I seen or talked to J. I really do miss him.. I pick up my phone and start to dial, wait I shouldn't be calling him, he should be the one calling me. If I call him now then he is going to think I'm crazy and desperate.. So I waited and waited and finally something showed up on my screen "Hey Present it's me J, give me call when you get this." I'm probably just going to ignore him but I really did miss him...
"Hey it's Present"
" I'm sorry I didn't call I've just been a bit busy with my ex girlfriend coming back into town."
"So are you thinking of getting back with her?"
"Yeah, I hope that's okay with you, I mean we did have a thing between us but I thought that was just one really good night."
"No, of course it doesn't bother me! I was just asking because I.." *long pause*
"I'll have to get back to you, uh bye."
A month had past and things were starting to get a little weird.. I am now starting to receive calls and text messages from people at work asking where I've been.. Asking if I was okay. I answered them with "I'm fine"... I got myself back on track and working at the new job (the job J got me).
I didn't think it was a good idea to go through with it. I mean J did get me this job but I don't think it would feel right to be working at a job that someone had to get me or my some what ex had to get me... I finally told my self "Hell with it" and just went!
*****************************
The bar had a wedding like theme to it and almost everything was eaither black,white or gold.. The bar was a black thick wood that complimented the room, the glasses had never been used, the floor was shiny (Black and red checkered floor) .This place had a spark to it almost like you would fall in love right when you walked inside. I look to my right and there he was "J" walking around acting like he owned the place (which he did) "Hellow Present, happy you could join us, Mr.Collby told me all about your (he coughs very loudly in a rude way) alcohol addiction." Okay okay, so I had to tell him something was going on with me. I couldn't tell him the reason I didn't come into work was because I was crushed by love.. "Yes well I'm 100% better so you can save your little act for someone else." There was a very big crowd around him and I didn't want him to win this fight! He just walks back to hi little group of "Friends" he is trying to please... I walked to the bar but I suddenly fell to the ground. I couldn't move.. No one even looked up.. Drake walks toward me "Oh my god!. Present ar-ar-are you okay!?"
"Yeah, I guess." Drake helped me up and he showed me to the Bar, he showed me all the secrets to Bartending and all the nice people that worked here. Although he did have a mouthful about J and how J was a "Fine guy" (his words) but we got past that part because I knew that sooner or later me and this Drake guy would really hit it off and be amazing friends! "So, how's taxes?" He laughs then answers "it's.. Okay" J walks to him and pats him on the back "I'll finish your shift."
"Thanks, and uh Present I'll be happy to be seeing you again soon." He walks away and now it was just awkward silence between me and this Hunk of bad boy..
