We are finally on our way. After years of playing best friends and wanting one another but not knowing the other felt the same way we had that great dinner. It was an amazing restaurant and we had a table in the very back. The table was set for eight but apparently our friends are ass hats and we were the only two that showed, well showed on time, but we will get to that.
I, being the military member, showed up early. I made sure everything was set for my friends Amy and John's per rehearsal dinner, dinner. We wanted to get the gang together before the families took over the show. Just eight good friends show our support for two of us getting hitched. Well everything was great. The table was in a nice spot off of the main dining room so we could get loud and not bother any of the other patrons.
As I sat at the table drinking a scotch Fair showed up. Fair's real name is Elizabeth but she was the free spirit of the group so we started calling her our "Pixie." In a late night of drinking pixie turned into fairy and was then shortened to "Fair" and it stuck.
Hey Fair! How's it going? Where is mark?
Mark's an ass hole!
Well you knew that when you started dating him, for the, what tenth time? He has always been a dick to you. Hell he's a dick to everyone. Right?
Yes, Yes I know. But he is always there when I need him.
Ok, have a seat and let me buy you your first drink.
Hell you can buy me all my drinks tonight
Wait a minute, I am not your boyfriend. I'm just a friend and friends buy A drink for there jilted friends, even if they are hot.
You think I'm hot?
Shut up! You know your hot.
Well yes, but I didn't know you knew that. You only date tall skinny blonds and I'm a five foot nothing red head.
I know, I know. I don't go looking for them they just seem to keep finding me. I like women that have curves, but I keep falling for bean poles.
Hay! I got curves.
Yes you do! Very nice curves. I like watching you walk too. You have a great strut. So I told you I like the way you look, what do you think about me?
Are you kidding? You are the hot one in our group. You know that.
No. I know I play the front man, but that does not mean YOU like the way I look. I always thought you didn't like something about me. You know, physically.
Fair just sat there dumfounded.
Well hell. We get along great and I flirt a lot with you, why have we never hooked up?
Honestly? You never dated any of the girls that hung out with the group. We all talked about it when you and the rest of the guys were off doing your stupid shit together and we all thought you were hiding something.
What the hell could I possibly be hiding from the group?
John thinks your secretly gay and... oh wait. I getting a call.
What! No! you cant call me... I stop talking as Fair holds up a hand and says hello.
How the fuck could they think I'm gay? I'm going to kick John's ass next time I see him.
As Fair hangs up her phone, she just lets me know our couple of honor will not be showing as the families are arriving early.
I really don't care! You know I'm not gay? Right!?
Yes, Yes ,yes. Gay men don't burp and scratch as much as you do.
Oh, thanks. I say as I role my eyes.
Fair leans in, puts her hand on my thigh and whispers, "at least I have never wanted you to be gay. I like thinking about you in a much different way."
Damn, your hot!
You said that already.
Do you want me to stop?
No! I want you to do something about it.
This line stops me. Her hand is on my thigh and she is very close to me. I have a hand on my scotch and I move it to her thigh. As I find a nice place half way up her thigh her damn phone rings again. The rest of the group are now on their way to Amy and John's to celebrate there. This leaves me and Fair sitting at a table set for eight and a weight staff is going to want to move us.
Fair says she does not want to move. She likes being out of eye shot of the rest of the restaurant and I tell the waitress the rest of the group is running late and we want to order now. as the waitress walks away I move to kiss Fair, but when I turn my head to do so she kisses me first.
It's a long slow great kiss. She moans as she kisses me and her hand moves up my leg then up to my chest. My hand goes straight to her cheek then to the back of her head, and I run my fingers into her hair.
As the kiss breaks, we just look at each other. We are both kind of shocked about how nice that kiss was and as it sinks in we both start to smile.
We are face to face and I am going to kiss her again when Mark the A-hole walks up.
Ha! What are you doing with my girl?
Fair and my hands jump back into our own laps.
No, seriously what is going on here? Mark says.
What are you doing here? Fair said with more venom than I would have expected.
Well this is where the party is.
No, it's not here. It is over at Amy and John's place. They just called and that is where we were just going. Fair said as she stood up and started for the door. Oh. And by the way Jeffrey is taking me to the party, not you.
Well Jeffrey, you keep her safe and remember who she belongs too.
I slowly stand up, tap Mark on the jaw with my fist and slowly set Mark, unconscious, in my chair. Turn and walk Fair to the door.
We don't say anything tell we hit the door and as I open it for Fair she whispers. Was that for me or because he called you gay?
Shit! I forgot he called me gay. I would have let him hit the floor if I had remembered.
