Andrea was recommended as "just your type", "great company" and my personal favourite "perfect for you". So as you can imagine, I was already not in favour of a blind date. Don't get me wrong I have no problems with dating just my friend's tastes in women for me.
I only went in the end to save having to put up with the nagging and questioning any longer. I caved in other words.
We met in a pub. None of the flower in the lapel or copy of newspaper open on page 3 nonsense. Just me, a table in the corner and a pint.
To this day now I can close my eyes and remember Andrea walking into the pub and to my table. Her long red hair bouncing in time with her steps. Her chest looking so inviting under her tight top.
Andrea was wearing a long skirt that dropped to well past her knees. A tight figure revealing top that showed her curves and dipped at the front to show just enough cleavage to get a man interested but not so much as to tell you all about it.
It was a nice summers evening so we went into the beer garden to sit and enjoy our drinks and to avoid the karaoke that had just started. We chatted for a bit. All the usual getting to know you stuff.
After a while we decided to leave the pub and go for a walk. We were both enjoying each others company and knew if we stayed there to long our friends would join us and the evening would be lost.
So we decided to get lost first so they couldn't find us. It also gave us a chance to get to know each other for longer without anyone playing cupid or forcing the pace.
We were walking through a local schools playing field. It had a small bank that led down to the next field and so on. We decided that there was a good a place as any to hang out and avoid the others and so we sat on the bank.
We'd got to that wonderful point in the evening when we you have to decide how far do you push it with your questions so that you don't frighten them off but you get to know more about them.
Me being the cheeky guy that I am I usually go to far.
As we sat there I looked around and there was nobody else in sight. Not a soul other then Andrea and I. I decided to be brave and push my luck as far as I could. The way I figured it a very negative report back to my friends on the evening should be enough to cure the cupid desires in them for at least a good six months.
So I looked at Andrea and began my master plan:
"Did you know that were all alone and nobody can see what were doing"
"Ok" replied a curious Andrea "We could do absolutely anything and you and I would be the only ones that ever knew about it." I continued
