One Night Stand

I was lying on my couch all by myself in my one bedroom apartment that I used to have. I just turned twenty, and I was just getting home from a job that I have been working at for the last few weeks. I was watching the celebrity channel and was kind of lonely sitting there all by myself.

I was hungry, and had no food in my refrigerator. I decided to go to this family sports bar that I hung out at a lot. I walked in my bathroom and worked on my hair and makeup for about a half hour, in case there were any cute guys there.

I got in my old Honda Accord that I used to drive and headed towards the restaurant. I walked in and sat at the bar and started talking to my good friend Jennifer that worked there. Jennifer and I were friends in high school and we have kept in touch ever since. People were pouring in the door, and Jennifer became busy.

I felt lonely sitting there by myself, and I started playing with my nails. I looked down to the other side of the bar and there was a guy sitting by himself watching the football game with a beer in his hand.

I thought he was kind of cute and he made eye contact with me, and I smiled at him. I sipped on my beer and read the menu and out of the corner of my eye I saw him get up and walk towards me. My heart raced and I pretended I didn’t notice him coming over.

“Hello.” he said
“Hi, how are you.” I responded.
“Do you mind if I sit down?” He asked
“No please.” I said pulling out a chair.

He bought me another beer and we talked for quite a while. I pretended I was interested in the football game he was watching. He wore an old hat, and white t-shirt and jeans that showed off his muscular body. He was twenty one years old, and his name was Chris, he was a sweet guy and I enjoyed his company as we ate dinner together. He paid my bill and shook my hand, and left the restaurant.

I sat there for a moment and then I quickly walked out to the parking lot, and walked up to his car that he was just getting into.

“Hey, there is another football game on tonight. I think the Broncos are playing the Raiders, if you want to come over to my place and watch it with me.” I said

Chris kind of looked embarrassed and confused. I was really nervous, and I tried not to fidget with my hands and legs.

“Ok, that sounds good.
