Summer Lovin' Part II

Morning! I know it's been awhile but I've been busy with more story developments. I know, I've never going to catch up at this rate...


Alright so where was I, G telling me FINALLY that he liked me. I was hanging out with E at my house playing rockband where he was dominated at drums and I was shredding up the guitar. yeah, that's right. G text me asking if he could ask me a question. Ugh. Anytime someone ask you that you know it's a loaded question. Something important always follows that. He says that he has really enjoyed hanging out with me over the passed few weeks and he wonders if it was both ways. I, of course, poke fun at him for being so vague and he admits to really liking me "quite a bit". I say I enjoy hanging out with him too but of course, I'm in my basement and he has a shitty phone! So we play text message tag for 2 hours when I finally give up and say we should discuss this in person. I must have been killing him because I thought I would send texts but they ended up not going through. So ridiculous.


So the next day, I go to cowboys with my friends as we had arranged a couple weeks before and G was going there too for his friends birthday. We pretty much arranged to talk there a little bit just so that there wasn't that stupid text message delay and things are a lot better in person! Not going to lie, I ended up being pretty smashed. He said that he liked me a lot but if I wasn't ready to be in a relationship he understood because I had just gotten out of one. He said I was worth the wait (aww). I found out he had liked me for awhile, like into last year which was surprising to me but I'll tell you that S called this one for sure. She always said there was secret love from him to me so I'll give her credit ! We ended up hanging out all night at Cowboys and dancing and whatever. We also (apparently) agreed to go for lunch the next day since he only worked until 1. We went to Olive Garden and talked about what we were going to do and I wanted to give it a shot. It takes a lot of courage for someone to ask you out and I had no doubt that if it didn't work out that we'd still be friends. We arranged to go out on friday and I was left pretty unimpressed after the lunch date. I guess it didn't really count as a date but it didn't feel like we were making that transition from friend to relationship at all.


Friday we went to see Get Smart (which is hilarious by the way) and for gelati on cordyn. It was nice since we could talk to each other about things other than work and find out more about each other. He kiss ME at the end of the night which was so shocking but impressived me quite a bit since I'm apparently very intimidating. (who knew...haha). I still was a little unsure about the whole thing but I felt something could be there now so we were going to go out again. On saturday I was supposed to go to the bar with my friends but I had to close so G could go to his Bud Spud and Steak for his soccer team. I didn't get out until 1030 and I didn't want to wait inline by myself at TYC so instead I went to a house party James was having. I picked up G since he was already drinking and I worked 9. (not having a hangover repeat of the previous weekend thank you very much.) When we got there James was already tipsy and everyone was having a good time which was fine.



It was myself, G and James upstairs at James' house and James went to his room to get his new camera which he had been telling me about. He called me into his room to "Show me his camera" and asked me what was going on with myself and G. Now, G and I didn't want to tell anyone we were dating because we figured it would just create unneeded drama at work since we work together 4 out of 5 days a week. James kept telling me that G was a good guy and I should give him a shot, which I thought was weird since he had just finished telling A about how much he wanted me? I was thisclose to telling James right then and there but I hadn't talked to G about it yet so I left it. I went back out to the kitchen and talked to G and james again. G went downstairs to hang out with the rest of the people that were there and this was a good opportunity for me to ask James about what is going on with him. So I told him what A said to me at Earls that one night and it ended up turning into an all night chatfest.

He told me that he never really got over the fact that he blew his chance with me over christmas and that when I was dating Brian he always thought it should have been him. I told him that how I couldn't date someone who wanted to leave Winnipeg every 6 months and be gone indefinately. A) that's not good for me and b) it's not good for him. He just kept saying that he wishes he could have another shot and how retarded he is (which is very true). He admitted that he still liked me but that if I was going to go out with G that would be okay because G is his buddy and he's a good guy. The whole thing with James is such a mess because he started to hang out with Julie again, which I asked him about and he really had no explaination for it, other than he's retarded. He said he realized he should have taken the chance he got and was basically asking for another one. It was like he wished we could go back into the past and just ignore everything that happened including saying that he would support me dating G. He wouldn't let me leave , he kept whining and not letting me leave, saying I should lie down next to him and talk. G was downstairs probably wondering what the hell was going on since I was gone for over an hour....

To be continued!

As always,
