Hard liquor mixed with a bit of intellect

I wanted to kiss her so bad, actually I wanted to do more than that. I wanted to press her against the wall and lay kisses across her neck, give her hickeys so every knew she was mine. If I could I would have but then again risk my job and losing her if she wasn't referring to me. I'd seem like the crazy, perverted boss who wanted to sleep their assistant. I was the last one in the office since I wanted to finish everything on my never ending to do list. Myra left the office hours ago yet she still invades my mind, too much I'm afraid. I constantly keep getting hard because of my thoughts I think it's time I talk to someone about it.

Late afternoon I drive over to my old roommates house, he currently lives in Manhattan with his new girlfriend. I believe they will get married, Mitch is always happy around her which rarely happened with the women he used to date. The house was really nice, I would like to live in one similar to it when I settle down. I live in a condo which I adore but it isn't the right place when I want to start a family. I didn't really start thinking about settling down with someone until a few months ago when I turned thirty and was single. I mean I have the occasional fling but nothing real, no one I could see having a future with.

I ring the doorbell and hear the cute little chime from the inside. A minute later Mitch opens a door with a smile.

"Harry!" He cheers and let's me in.

"It's been awhile, what brings you here?" Mitch asks me while I follow him into the living room. It was decorated pretty decent couple boxes still out, they only been living here for two weeks.

"To catch up with my mate...and I need some advice," I pause before saying the last part almost afraid to ask.

"Of course, what is it buddy?" I take a deep breath trying to recollect my thoughts.

"One day my car got wrecked and something in my gut told me to take the subway. So I did and saw the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, I was too chicken to talk to her though..."

"Hold up, you took the subway and were too chicken to talk to a woman," he says in shock by things I haven't done since college.

"Yes can I continue," He nods. "When she left I thought I would never see her again but I wanted to so I took the subway at the same time in hopes of seeing her again. I did but still couldn't get up the nerve to speak with her. I did notice she was staring at me though when she thought I didn't notice. I took it the next day and if I saw her I knew it was fate and I would talk to her. Sadly she wasn't on the subway so I gave up and went to a café nearby and there she was talking to a friend. I didn't want to interrupt so I just watched her and ate my lunch. I had to go back on the subway to go to the office and I think she followed me back because she sat right next to me and we talked. She wanted to be in the publishing business so I offer her a job. I didn't think it be too hard after we started working together. I thought I wouldn't want to date her anymore but I was wrong, I can't stop thinking about her. I only told you the whole story because I don't know what to do."

"It seems like you have major feelings for this girl already, and by that story I do think it was fate for you two to cross paths. I know you really like her but Harry you shouldn't get involved with her because she's works with you."

"But what if she hinted that she likes someone at the office and it's me."

"Did she actually say it was?"

"No..."

"Then don't stress about it. I think you should move on rather than making a move on her and jeopardize your job." I nod he was right I have to get over Myra.

"How about we go to a basketball game, I was going to go with Hanna but she had something to do at work."

"I don't know Mitch," I say not really wanting to see anyone else.

"Come on, we can get some beers afterwards." I nod and we go to the game. It was six when it started and ended around eight. I didn't really pay attention since I could think about is Myra, all I remember is that the Golden State Warriors won the game.

"Did you even pay attention to the game at all?" Mitch asks while we drove the bar.

"Not really, but you know I like football more than basketball."

"Yeah but i was going to waste those tickets and I thought it be nice going to a game with my best friend, like we use to in college," I smile at the memories of us yelling at the referees anytime we thought the were 'out of line' but they weren't most of the time anyways.

"Look I'm sorry, I'll make it up. Tell me what game you want to see and I'll get the tickets, and I won't be a stick in the mud."

"Okay, I'll have to look but I'll let you know." I nod and see where Mitch had stopped the car.

"Mitch, this isn't a bar." I say looking at the name, Aphrodite. I hope this isn't a strip club.

"I know it's a club, which has a bar."

"Why are we at a club?" I'm beyond confused there is a normal bar near his house.

"Because you're so tense and wound up about a girl, so tonight you are going to forget she even exists and let go." I only laugh but agree and go inside with him. The club is very loud and filled with people between 21 to 40 at best. I go to the bar and order two shots and hand one to Mitch.

"Oh no I drove here, I'm good. You take both you need it."

"What's the fun in coming to a club and not drinking."

"I'm only here for you, I have a lovely woman at home that I don't have to forget about. Now drink up." I just shrug and drink both shots. I look out on the dance floor and see a cute lady smiling at me so I go over to dance with her tonight. I was having a great time dancing with pretty woman I didn't know, maybe I'll go home with one of them and forget about Myra.

Oh, Harry you can't drink your problems away.

So I started college this week and I don't know how busy I'll be with school since I haven't gotten any homework yet but I'll try to update every two weeks or at least once a month if I'm super busy. This goes for all my books so if you read any of my others books I'm doing the same.
