When I met Eric I have already lost my believe in true love. Due to my sexual esprit I have had been intimate with a lot of guys, and although I knew that they all enjoyed the time when we fucked -- and so did -- but I never got a feeling like "this man is very special, I feel a deeper connection", when we did not have sex.
I worked as an investment banker for a bank at Wall Street and as nearly every day during the week my colleague Tim (yes we have, but we decided to stay friends with benefits) and I where visiting "Larry's bar" which was the place to be during this time. While we were enjoying our vodka-lemons we where talking about work (I really do not want to get into this, because for non-bankers the topic was pretty boring).
All of a sudden Tim noticed that I had stopped listening to him because a man has entered the bar. His body looked gorgeous in his suit and his face was covered with a three-day beard, something I really like at men.
"Hey!" Tims' voice made me lose this guy. "Are you even listening?" he asked. "I'm sorry Tim", I answered with a smile "It's just... do you know this one over there?".
"The guy over there?" Tim asked. "Oh Jen, come on! Please wait at least after round 2 before you leave me alone here at the table" -- I laughed and he continued "this guy is Eric Welsh, owner of "Welsh Capital Invest" -- "This is Eric Welsh?" I asked skeptically. "I thought he was an ugly old fat man" while I took out my smartphone and searched him on google.com.
Of course Tim was right (he knows everybody) and my checking was totally unnecessary. The moment I put down my phone I realized that I lost him. My eyes where searching all around the bar, however I did not find him anymore. Tim interrupted my mental absence again. "May we continue?" -- "Yes of course"
After a few minutes of talking I felt someone tipping on my shoulder and a deep voice: "Good evening!" -- Tim and I stopped talking immediately and turned around. It was Welsh -- and the only thing I thought about that moment was: stay cool bitch! "May I sit next to you? I have had a business meeting but all of a sudden my meeting partner cancelled it because he could not make it today"
I smiled. His dark brown eyes where so attracting to me when he was looking deep into my eyes. I nodded. He sat next to me. The rest of the events at Larry's are quickly told: we talked about this and that and I was deeply impressed by his knowledge and his jokes. Although I did not knew it then, I already felt connected to this guy. At some time during the night, Tim left us alone because he saw a woman he wanted to approach.
