Mikey had arrived to the restaurant where he was supposed meet his date. He guessed that he was the first to arrive so he got to the table he reserved and ordered a drink.

10 minutes pass and no sign of his date. The waitress comes by to take his order and he tells her that he's waiting for someone.

15 minutes. She comes back and Mikey tells her that he'll be here soon.

20 minutes. He orders another drink.

30 minutes. People are giving him sympathetic looks.

35 minutes. Mikey texts him "are u lost ??" No reply.

40 minutes. The waitress comes back and apologizes. Mikey tells her agin that he'll be here.

45 minutes. Mikey's eyes start to water. He's about to stand up and leave when a short man sits down across from him.

"I'm so sorry babe! The traffic was horrible," the stranger says grabbing the napkin in front of him and putting it in his lap. "I'm Pete by the way, just play along" he adds quietly.

Mikey smiled shyly. "I'm Mikey."

"I came into eat by myself but I saw you looking all cute and sad so I assumed you we're stood up so here I am." Pete's brown eyes glimmered as he spoke.

"Thank you," Mikey said, "you're so sweet."

The waitress came back over and with a wide smile took their orders.

They spend the rest of the night getting to know each other.

When they get ready to leave Mikey speaks up.

"Thank you again. This is honestly one of the nicest things someones ever done for me." He says, pushing his bangs out of face.

"It was no problem Mikey, you're really cool and I had a great time." Pete said, rubbing the back of his neck. "Could I maybe get your number so I could take you on a real date and not look like your douchecanoe boyfriend?"

Mikey giggled. "Um, sure."

He pulls a sharpie that he always keeps in his pocket and scrawls his number on to Pete's tan arm.

"So, I guess I'll see you soon. Bye Mikey"

"Bye Pete"
