Real Friends Or Ones of Convenience

Nevaeh

It's Monday morning, I wake strangely with a smile on my face. It's just now 7 so I head into the bathroom to get a quick shower to start my day, humming to myself as I do so, I think to myself, I haven't been in such a good mood in quite some time. I finish up getting dressed, it's now nearing quarter after 8, I told Harry I'd meet him for hotcakes by 9. I'd better head out, so I make my way there, getting there a bit early, but to my surprise he's already inside.

I wave as I see him, but then glance down to the floor as I feel myself begin to blush.
Why is this happening, this is not a normal thing for me. I dont even really know him, but he's a nice guy and I feel comfortable when I talked with him yesterday. Let's hope it continues.

I head over to sit down. "Hi" I say

"Hello" he says back, with that damn smile. "Have a seat" motioning to the bench across from him "I hope this is okay" he says.

"Yeah, this us perfect" I say and smile.

"So.."he says and trails off, then clears his throat, "you live close by" opening up conversation.
I chuckle and say "uh, yeah, actually not too far, uh, how about yourself, uh you got here a bit early"
He runs his hands together, maybe a nervous thing, looking down, then looks up and says, "yeah, not to far, just didn't want to miss you actually" then chuckles.

I say "but, why or how would you miss me, I said I'd come, I'm not the kind to lie or just back out on you"

He says, "oh, um I'm glad for that, it's just that, uh, you are ..." he pauses and motions towards me " just so beautiful, and I'm just kinda plain"

I said "sorry, but I don't take people for how they look, but how they treat me, I hope you don't take me for someone like that, and plain, you are not"

"No, I didnt mean it like that"

The waitress then comes over to takes the order, we give our order with a smile and continue to talk.

She soon brings out our food, we eat and I quickly take the bill before he can reach as I had said and paid, which earned me a grumpy look by him.

We had talked for a good couple hours, which meant it was now 11 and I didn't have to be to meet Brenda for a bit yet, so I was just going to sit at the park for a bit, since it was a nice day.

Harry startles me when he asks me "where are you heading to from here?" I just look at him but a smile creeps onto my face, and say " I was gonna go to the park for a bit, I have some time before meeting my friend" he scratches the back of his neck, but then asks "would you maybe like some company, uh, if not, that's cool to" I shake my head "yeah, that would be a nice change" I say.

We decided to ride together to the park.
Yeah I know I'm trusting this guy rather quick, and I have a boyfriend.

We reach the park and it's almost like he read that thought from the car, because as we sat there, he suddenly asks

"V, if that's ok I call you that, do you have a boyfriend?"

My mouth drops open, I look at him

He smiles, "are you ok?"

I say, " yes I'm ok, yes you can call me that, but nobody does, and where did that question come from?, but yeah, I kinda do, but he's not around much"

"Ok wow he says, you answered everything in one" then giggles
He sat his hand down but bumped mine, but it felt so warm, just comfortable, like it should be there. Nothing like when Brian touches me.

Funny how I haven't even thought of him since he's walked out, or hardly ever really when he's ever gone on his 'trips' maybe he is not who I should be with afterall, I mean shouldn't I miss him being gone so much?

"Sorry" he says, snapping me from my thoughts.
I look up and ask "for what, are you sorry?"

He just shakes his head and says "um, maybe this was a bad idea, I should take you to get your car, um, I can't do this"

"Wait, Harry, did I do something? Something that now you don't want to be around me?

"No, no, it's just I think I may want to be around you a little to much V, and that's MY problem he says, because right now, all I want to do is just kiss you, but I can't, because you are taken by another man"

"Oh" is all I can get out.
He takes me back to my car but the whole ride I just keep thinking what he said. When he stops I undo my belt and ask Harry, "H, will I see you again? I mean can we be friends, or is this a one time thing?"
He goes to answer but I surprise even myself by what I do next.
I reach over placing my finger on his lips then leaning over, and I press my lips to his. His eyes widen, but within seconds he is kissing me back, he places his hands gently on my cheeks to hold me there and kisses me so tenderly. I pull away and smile and ask, "so...what's your answer, H?"

He just shakes his head, smiling so wide, but then jumps quickly out from his side running to mine to help me out, and says
"Really, V, friends after that? I guess if that's what you're willing to give me right now, I'm not saying no, and I'm definitely willing to see you anytime sweetness" then he winks at me. "Although before you go, let me give you something to really remember me by."
He presses me against his car giving me an intense kiss, one I will definitely not be forget anytime soon. We exchange numbers, he then let's me go.

What have I just done, I don't know, but I think I like it. I liked it a lot.
