The man eventually left mr be after I ignored him for about two hours, and it was just me and James now. We had talked about his work, and about a bunch if other things, and by three o'clock in the afternoon I was losing my mind.

"James?" I say from the living room, and James calls my name from the kitchen. "what are you doing?" I ask looking over at the kitchen door. James walked out with two glasses in his hand. I smiled and took one of the glasses once he was over go where I was. "Yummy." I say before taking a sip of the wine. It was a light pink wine that looked delicious. I know it's very girly of me, but I love wine.

"Yeah Annette?" James asked setting his class down on the coffee table in front of us.

"Yes. I love wine." I say taking another sip before setting it down on the coffee table as well. James wine was a nice dark red color. "Can I try a sip of yours?" I ask looking at James, and he smiled.

"Go ahead. Just one sip."

"Why of course. I've already been drunk once so if this is strong I'm only taking one sip."

"Thats good." I laughed a little, and took a sip of the wine. Once I had a sip I realized it wasn't wine. I didn't know what it was, but I didn't care enough to ask because it was good. I set the glass back where it was, and looked at James.

"Thats good." I say pointing at his drink, and he laughed. "What?"

"You sound surprised as if I don't own good drinks."

"Well I know you do, but damn. That one is good."

"Okay. I'll take your word for it." He sid trying not to laugh again, and I noticed something different about it.

"Where are your glasses?" I ask wondering hoe I didn't notice that before.

"They broke."

"So..."

"I'm wearing contacts. Which, by the way, is a pain in my ass. I keep forgetting I'm wearing the stupid things so I fall asleep with them in. I had to go to the doctors a couple weeks ago actually because I got an infection."

"When will you be getting new glasses?"

"When I check my mail because I haven't today. I'll be right back." James git up, and walked over to his front door. I heard it open, and James sounded excited when he opened it. He walked back into the living room with a box, and a smile on his face.

"You seem excited."

"I got a new prescription which meant I got to pick out a different type of style, finally." He explained opening the box. It was a medium sized box for just glasses, but the bubble wrap had taken up most of the space in the box. He took the bubble wrap out of the box, and then took out case that had two pairs of glasses in it, and a case for each. He put the box down, and opened the case taking out what was inside.

"Those look nice." I explain and he looks at me with a smile.

"Okay which one should I try on first?" He asked me with an excited tone to his voice.

One pair of glasses had a plus sign on the left and minus sign on the right on the front beside the lenses. Then there was a multiply sign on the side of the glasses on the left side and divide sign on the same spot, but on the right side. I smiled and pointed to that one not looking at the other choice yet. The glasses were also black which meant the symbols were all white. It looked cool and it was very much like James to get a pair of glasses like so. He put the glasses on, and I smiled amazed at how they brought out his grey eyes.

"How do they look?" James asked looking at me, and waiting for my approval or disapproval.

"They look really good. They bring out your eyes." He smiled and then took them off, and put on the other lair. The other lair was black based on the outside of the glasses and on the inside it was gold. There was no special design on them, but they still looked amazing on him.
