Chapter eighteen: the L word

for the longest time i didnt believe in fairy tales
that is until last sunday.
i went to green street a club in greensboro not far from where i live
it was my first time clubbing since i turned 18
i went with my older brother primarily because i was his designated driver.
the first few minutes were awkward and a little bit intimidating like being a fresh peice of meat in a lions den
and a little overwhelming being in a room with so many gay people a feeling i hadnt felt since my first party at my friend chris's house. i was introduced to a lot of new people and started to find my groove for the night i decided to step back and take a smoke break next to the bar when a blonde girl walks up to me and introduces herself. " hi im Ashley" she said i told her my name in return and she replied with my friend the one who just walked that way thinks your really cute, she took me over and introduced me and within a few minutes we were dancing which was very nice considering h was a really good dancer. a few minutes later we were off the dance floor dying from the heat and decided to sit down and get to know each other, we talked for the rest of the night until my brother came to tell me he was ready for me to ferry his gin soaked ass home. we exchanged numbers before i left and before i knew it we were texting non stop. whats wierd about that is that we had so much in common it was astounding. i dont want to say it but im quite certain this boy could be husband material, the more and more i talk to him the more i find he has the qualities im looking for in a signifigant other but im so afraid that this one will be perfect and my bad luck or big mouth will fuck it all up. all i know is hes asked me out on a date tomorrow and NOTHING will stop me from going, perhaps this is my moment after all the absolute bullshit and good karma ive built up the universe or god or whatever it is that controls fate, has finally decided ive suffered enough and prooved myself enough to finally have th happiness ive been searching for perhaps this could be the first meaningful relationship ever ......dare i say it perhaps it could be the start of .....love .... one thing is for sure its definitely the start of a good start to something good :)
