So, after a couple of drinks, I'm now laughing with Hank about some work stories. Police work can be vaguely intriguing. "You still haven't told us about lover boy Gavin." Hank says and laughs. Connor and I snicker as well. "Okay okay, jeez." I laugh.
"So, when I had just moved to Detroit, I got mugged and had to file a report against the dude. But can you guys guess who the oh so hot policeman was who helped me?" I say and look at them. "My system detects... Gavin! Yes Gavin!" Connor says, slurring his words slightly. He takes another sip from his drink. "Exactly. The dude said that I had to be back at the precinct in a little while, so I gave him my number so that he could text me when I had to get back there." I say. "Oof." Hank snickers. "So, I'm not even out of the precinct and I get a text from an unknown number, right? Can you guess what it says?" I laugh. "Hey baby... Can't wait to take you out somewhere and fuckkk." Connor replies, slurring his words even more. Me and Hank laugh extremely loud. "No!!" I say. "It said 'Can't wait to see you again. I'll catch that deviant and text you. It shouldn't be too hard, I've been working out." I remember. "He was also the one to constantly send me thirsty emojis." Connor laughs. Hank signals me to continue, as he takes a sip of his drink. "Anyway, so I return to the precinct a week later, and he asks me out. Dumbass me said yes of course. After a while we started dating." I cringe at the thought.
Hank laughs at me and yells 'HA!' I give him an unhappy look in return. "So, this is where it all went south. The real juicy part, if you will." I smirk and look with a sly look at Connor. He nods and smirks. "At our six-month anniversary..." I stop. "Protect your ears, this is going to get scandalous." I say in an old lady's voice. "So, at our six-month anniversary, Gavin took the day off. I still had to work but managed to finish early. So, I came home pretty early, expecting a nice meal or I don't know, naked Gavin?" I laugh. Connor nearly spits out his drink. "Jesus Christ Em, don't scare me like that!" Connor snickers. "Anyway, what I came home to was Gavin fucking another girl on our couch so that was fun." I earn a shocked face from Hank. "Come on Hank, what did you expect?" I laugh. "I dunno man." Hank says, distantly. "I broke things off quickly and moved into the apartment I live in now." I say. "Also, Ace didn't like Gavin from the start, so that should've been a red flag. She's clearly a better judge of character than I am." I say laughing. The other guys laugh as well. "Man, what an asshole." Connor says. "Well clearly he deserved that spit in the face." Hank snickers.
After a while, Hank left to go to the bathroom and Connor and I were left alone. I am full on drunk at this point and Connor? Well Connor is fucking shitfaced. He's slurring his words and instead of being a calm and reserved version of himself, Connor is now dancing to Jazz music and laughing. "Come join me Em!" Connor shouts from the dancefloor. Who would've thought, a dancefloor in a jazz café. Who would've thought that I would end up here, on this day. It's kind of weird if you think about it really. I just met these guys, and now I am about to dance with one of them.
Whatever. I walk towards Connor. He is jamming out, and surprisingly a very good dancer. So, I start dancing with him, we're not very far apart. I'm not a very good dancer if I have to say so myself. But with the gained confidence from the alcohol I drank, I didn't focus on what I couldn't do. I laugh at Connor, as he does the robot. Not the android, the popular dance move.
It wasn't a long while after until he grabbed my hands and started really dancing with me. Connor started twirling me, perfectly aligning every twirl with the beats of music. I start to get sick, so I stop twirling. Of course, the android notices this. So he lightly grabs my waist, and I lay my arms around his neck. "Is this ok?" Connor asks. I chuckle and nod yes. We started slow dancing following the rhythm of the music. He is quite a bit taller than me, so I have to look up to look at his face. I notice a light pink blush on his cheeks. Another thing I notice for the first time were a couple of freckles! Really tiny ones on his nose and a couple on his cheeks. Looking really up-close now, I also notice a couple of hairs above his lip. Cyberlife did a damn good job.
