Dear Internet,

I did exactly what you told me to.

Yeah, yeah, I know, 'Oh my God! It's Mavin!', or whatever you call it. But, believe it or not, I got turned down.

I walked with Michael out to his car after work and asked him the only thing I though I would never have to ask a co-worker.

"Micoo, will you go on a date with me?"

He gave me a questioning look, but shrugged it off and replied, "Can't. I have to run errands for Lindsay."

I felt a sudden urge of sadness and blinked back the tears that formed in my eyes.

"Sorry, dude." he said as he got in the car.

"Bye." I said, trying to hide the worry and misery in my voice.

"Bye." Michael said as he started the car.

I slowly suckled back to Geoff's car and waited for him to finish talking to Jack so we could leave.

So, now, here I am, sitting in a puddle of my own tears and sorrow.

Help me.

Love, Gavin Free.
