School is going great. I am turning my papers in on time and passing my pop quizzes. It felt so good to finally be close to obtaining that degree. I could almost envision myself walking across that stage. I had some extra time so I decided to revise my resume'. I began typing and then I remembered that Victor had given me his card. I pulled the card out of my wallet and thought about calling. No, I told myself, he probably will be wondering why I am calling if I have not even had a completed resume' to submit to him. I then told myself that I needed to at least see which positions they had with the company in order to cater my resume' to the internship opportunity. 

I decided to pick up the phone and call. The first number I called was his office phone. It rang a couple of times and then went to voicemail. I decided not to leave a message since his cell number was right underneath the office number on the card. I dialed the number and upon the second ring he picked up. "Hello", his deep and sexy voice came from the other end of the phone. I paused for a second and finally said "Good Afternoon,  Victor,  my name is Gavin, we met about a week ago at the party in DC and I you were telling me about some internship opportunities at your facility." There was a slight pause and he said "Oh, the guy who was about to order that weak vodka and cranberry. Yes I remember you." I laughed and said,  "well I am revising my resume' and would like more information about the opportunities with your company."  He began to tell me more about the internship and when it would begin. He told me that I should submit my resume as soon as possible for the best chance of getting the internship.  The conversation then took a less professional route and we started talking about sports and the school I went to. I don't know that prompted him but he asked me " would you mind meeting up for lunch or coffee on day." I kind of stuttered and got caught up in the words before I finally replied "the part of the DC that the party was at was about 45 minutes from where I attend school. Where would you want to meet?" He replied " I actually know exactly where your school is I can come to you." We kept talking and setting up a meeting before we decided to meet at this diner on saturday. I could not wait. Even if he was not hitting on me or anything I still think it is nice that he would want to meet up. 

Saturday came and I was excited. I put on my best suit and tie and headed to the diner. I texted him that I had arrived and he told me he was already inside. I looked for him and saw that he was all the way in the back. He waved me over and as I got close I realized this man had on jeans and a collegiate t-shirt. Embarassed I said "I think I am overdressed for this lunch." He laughed and replied "don't feel uneasy I didn't really indicate to you what type of lunch this would be and plus you look very professional and I like that color shirt." I may have began to blush and told him, "thanks." I sat down we ordered and he had a folder with some more information about his company that he gave me. We talked for a few more moments when the food arrived and then paid and walked out to the cars. "We should do this again, Gavin you are very mature for your age and easy to talk to", he said." I smiled and replied, "you too. Should we prepare to meet at a different setting next time?"  He looked at me and licked his lips "I would like that. Lets make plans now. We can meet at this bar I know that is not far from here next weekend." "Cool, we can keep in touch via phone until that time." We shook on it and went to our separate vehicles. This man really got me smiling from ear to ear. Lets see where this goes.
