Another round of americanos had been ordered for the both of them.
The woman wipes her tears off and asks while sobbing, "hey you sure you don't wanna continue to drink? I'm done so don't worry about me."
"To be frank with you, I don't get buzzed to have a good time, I drink so I can break my own barriers of stubborness so that I may be even more honest than I always am." says Entia as her eyelids continue to drop bit by bit.
"Really, and why want to be more honest than what you already are?" The woman asked, attempting to now change the subject.
"Cuz I just want to be acknowledged for the amazing person I've grown to be after so many heart aches and countless nights of crying. And also, don't you go changing the subject on me, I may be more buzzed than you." Entia hiccups but continues "But I still want to know of your past, it's important to me in case we end up actually dating."
"Well see Entia, I may be sobered up already because of all the crying, but the amount of emotion we've already displayed with each other and well the moments too, it just seems all too fantasy like, but I'm enjoying it, and if you really wanna know what happened between me and Gisselle, may she rest in peace, then you'll stick with me tonight and the coming morning, does that sound like a deal?"
"Whatever you want deary, but you seemed really adamant to tell me of her not too long ago so-"
"I know, I know, but, really Entia, again, I just want to enjoy our first night together, it just really all seems so crazy that it's been this well and, I dunno, thank you, I'm grateful for that. So with time, I'll tell you."
"Alright alright then fine, so if anything, your place or mine?
"Cause Ima tell you the truth, at this point, I really don't care, I was too shy to let you come to my place, but with you telling me you wanna spend another time with me while we're completely sober, I trust then you won't be too nit picky with where I live, it's not too far from you and not too bad I'd say so myself, but I really would just wanna leave some time soon cuz it'sssssss, wow! 4AM, fuck!"
"Hey you sure the bartender won't get too mad at how long we've been here, I mean he was supposed to close at 2AM, but we're still here..."
Entia reassures the woman, "well, look at him, he's just over there talking to the creepy dood, he was trying to kick me out, but I think since he saw us having quite the moment while we danced, he just gave up and left the bar to just us four."
The woman then relaxed a bit more and the both then enjoyed their americanos while now the both just sit and watch the rainfall in silence.
"Hey Entia, I know this might be a bit premamptive to ask since it's our first night together as just people getting to know each other, but based off everyone that you've told me that has come into your life, do you think you'll ever cut me off?"
" Do you think you can handle this unbrittling honesty of mine?" Entia immediately responds
"Well, for a first time stranger, you are quite honest, even with the amount of heartache you've been through, it seems as if you have trust issues, but it doesn't seem to at least hinder your ability to actually get to know someone huh?"
"Exactly, so the more you're able to handle my honesty, and recipricte any emotion I give you, the more easily you'll be able to just break my stubbron walls of trust issues. Meaning it's really just all or nothing with me, if you can't even respond with something within the moment, and I say in my head, say something, or if I have to verbally say it too, then yea, I cut whatever bitch off." Entia now gives more insightful responses of herself as she sobers up a bit.
"So going back to my question then." The woman says now even more interested in Entia
"To be quite honest, I don't know, it really just depends on you, the more emotion you're capable of showing, then the more likely I'm willing to fight for you to stay in my life."
The woman seems satisfied with Entia's response and a smile then lights upon her face.
"What?" Entia laughs.
"Well see, we are different for sure, I'm a taurus so I don't know if that has anything to do with how compatible we are getting along right now, but simply, I'm just down to be with a person so long as they are able to just show me that they actually care to be with me, but I am always up for a good time with them whether it be for fun, or a nice conversation like we're having right now."
"Ughhhhh, not only are you just fucking hot as hell, but to be recipricating this amoutn of emotion and down to just talk is what makes you such a damn dream come true, so trust me hun, I'll stick arounf to see where we can make it."
"Thanks Entia, and look, even if we don't make it work out, I'd be glad to for sure keep you around, I don't how and in which form of friendship or relationship, but I just wouldn't want to lose you for sure."
"I'm okay with losing you, but only if it means you being more happy, but of course hun."
The woman filled with joy making little swaying movements of happiness as she sips on her americano, "You really like saying that huh? Hun?"
"Entia chuckles, yea, I'm kinda old fashioned and would love to say someday to you, "Honey I'm homeeee", but for now, I just like calling people hun cuz it's much easier to say."
The both laugh for a brief moment then both look at eachother then their lips as it got silent.
Entia, now sobering up even more, thinks to herself, "now's the right time for sure, I'm definitely gonna remember this as our first."
The woman looks down just a bit as she moves her dark red hair aside to the behind of her ear.
Entia softly lifts her chin up, gets closer to her lips, and gives her a direct but soft look into her eyes.
"Hey I'm really glad I met you tonight, I really am." says Entia.
"Me too, Entia, and I just wanna thank you, f-f-for what? I-i dunno bu-"
Entia then moves in swiftly but gentle enough to make contact with her lips as the rain continues to patter against the window, the bartender with the creepy dude of course just staring at them as they tenderly embrace one another.
It was for about a minute or two that they shared the moment, but of course in this moment of bliss, there was a bit of tongue thrown in since the two are just damn horn dogs that get wet even with just emotional intimacy.
But really, it was the sincerity of the moment in which the both just felt the same feeling of trust and emotions towards one another.
Leaving then their first kiss made in the bar at midnight.
