SPLIT: Big Book Of All My OC OneShots Vol 3 (BF)

88: Failed Date

Barry X My Oc Sam. ( After a failed date, Barry finds a new friend)

Barry was out at the shop checking out all the new designer clothes, critiquing them and trying to resist buying the whole shop when he saw someone he recognized.

It was a guy named Tim he used to know and date, Tim sees him and smiles. Barry smiled back trying to stop all the emotions and feelings he still felt for him.

"Hey Barry, how you been?" Tim asks, sticking his hands in his pants pockets.

"Hey...Uhh not bad, what about you?" He asked barely able to get his words out.

"Oh just working, are you a famous fashion designer yet?"

"Uhh...I'm working on it" he said self consciously as he smoothed out his jacket.

Tim raises a brow and sighs, seeming disappointed "Oh okay"

"Sorry...I've disappointed you haven't I?" He said feeling sick to his stomach.

"Oh um.. wanna go on a date tonight?" Tim asks rather randomly.

"Really?...you want to" Barry asked excitedly "I mean sure okay" he then said realizing he sounded like an idiot.

"Yeah sure why not, see you at 8 pm at that bar downtown called Admen's"

"Okay see you at 8" he said with a grin on his face feeling ridiculously excited.

Later on... The bar is also a small eatery with green painted wooden booths and a bar top that is made of white and black marble. Barry sits at the bar and orders a drink while he waits for his date.He doesn't seem to come and it's 20 minutes after 8.

Barry checks his watch and starts to get a little anxious "Oh please don't let this happen again" he said to himself thinking the worse had happened and he had been stood up again.

Fortunately a couple of minutes later Tim does show up but he's not alone, he has another guy wrapped around him, Barry gulped nervously and walked over to him "Tim...what's going on?" He plucked up the courage to ask.

"Oh I forgot I already had a date for tonight, Sorry Barry"

"What...but I thought" he stammered trying to fight back tears.

"Maybe some other time" Tim smiles walking off with his date.

Barry didn't know what to do he slumped back at the bar before ordering more drinks plus some shots for good measure, knocking them back just as fast, he was going to have a good time with or without that deceitful man.

Suddenly a slick and sweet sounding voice breaks him out of his hurt "Hey you should go easy on the drinks, a guy isn't worth getting pissed drunk over"

Barry looked at who was talking and scoffed "It's worked out pretty well so far"

"Well I'm not serving you that anymore, how about something to eat, The chef makes a mean cheeseburger"

"Ugh fine if you insist" Barry slurred rolling his eyes playfully.

"Good boy" the bartender teases and gets his food and a coke to drink.

Hearing them say that sent shivers down his spine before he tucked into his burger.

"My names Sam, what's yours Cutie?"

"Barry" he answered with a cheeky albeit drunken grin.

"Well nice to meet you Barry, that food should help you get less drunk feeling" Sam smiles.
