(As with my previous story, this is true, and the names have been changed.)
Wow!! Where do I start? These past 2 months have been a whirlwind, and I have to say, it's an amazing feeling. This story actually started 3 years ago when I met Angela at work. She's about 5'8, 105lbs soaking wet, got a set of large B/small C breasts, and guys, a smile that men would destroy countries for! She is without a shadow of a doubt, the woman I've dreamed of my whole life. Unfortunately, when we hooked up 3 years ago, it didn't work out. We went our seperate ways, she moved outta state, and I was left here, crushed. Then one night....
I play in a band. It was my birthday, so we booked a show at a club about 30 minutes away from our usual stomping grounds. We set up, had one of our friend's bands open for an hour, then hit the stage at 11:15pm. All our "followers/fans" were there, and it was shaping up to be an amazing time. Right before our 1st set gets done, I look up at the crowd, then at the door. OH MY GOD!!! It's her! Angela comes walking in with some of her friends. I froze. Everyone told me my face turned white, and I stopped playing for a second or two. I remember feeling the butterflies just like I did the first time I saw her 3 years ago. Then, for some reason, something came over me.
My guitarist always packs an acoustic with him just in case, so after we finish the song we were playing, I tell the band that I want to play a song, solo, on the acoustic. The 3 of 'em look at me like I'm standing there naked. I told them to trust me, and that after I was done, I would join them for our break. They agreed, and so I grabbed the stool, the acoustic, and situated myself front and center.
I remember asking:
"How's everyone feeling? Good? I am too."
"I hope you all can forgive me, this isn't what ya'll are use to, but I just watched destiny walk through the door, and I have to sing this song to her"
With that being said, I looked at Angela, who had her strange, yet so damn sexy, smirk on her face. I proceeded to play a song called "Everything". I won't write all the lyrics but some important ones are:
...I remember you. Do you remember me too?
Seems like such a long, long, time. Since
I held you near and called you mine.
It ends with the chorus saying:
...I would do anything. And I would give
everything, to be your everything.
When I got done playing, the place erupted. I looked up at Angela, and she had that teary, kinda smile on her face. I walked off stage, through everyone, right to her and smiled.
"You never sang to me before." she said
"I couldn't help it, I've missed you so much".
"Happy birthday Teddy."
So she bought me a beer! Well she stood in front of me while I was on stage the rest of the night. Everyone who is close to my band kept asking me all night who she was. I just kept saying:
"That's the girl I told you about, that if we were still together, everything would be meaningful again."
We loaded up our gear at the end of the night, and chilled at the bar. Angela and I talked. She told me how nothing seemed to work out for her outta state, so she came home. I told her it was good to see her again, and that I should be going. Her face turned sad, and I pray I never see it like that again. She asked me if I could walk her up the hill to her new place, so that we could get caught up. I looked at my ride and he just smiled, and nodded. (My ride is my buddy Dustin, and he's 10 times smarter then me, at this point, I was still nervous, and I didn't have a clue.) I told her I didn't have a ride home and she told me she'd give me one tommorrow. At this point, I couldn't say no.
We walked up this hill that felt like a mountain. Well actually, most hills feel like mountains at 3 in the morning, on a Saturday night, and your 3 sheets to the wind. Anyway, we get to her apartment, sit on the couch, and just started talking. We talked for what must've been about an hour. She then tells me that she's feeling sleepy, so I'm like then let's crash. She gets up, and I begin to sprawl out on the couch.
"What are you doing?!?" she asked me.
"Umm? Going to bed?"
"Not there your not!"
She then takes my hand, leads me off the couch, and kisses me gently.
"Ted, I have to be honest, I never realised how much I missed you until tonight. No one has ever sang to me. Not only that, but that place was packed, and you didn't seem to care what they thought."
