Truce

Ok, so who is curious to know what happened this weekend with TheFire? :)

Well, everything went ok. I entered, he was sitting there with a bored look on his face. I got my drink and went up to him and said “Hi there!”. He got up and smiled this amazingly radiant smile and hugged me. Twice. He asked how my trip was and I said it was boring. He had this puzzled look on his face. “Work”, I volunteered, shrugging my shoulders. The whole time his smile never faded. He was just lit up like a Christmas tree with his eyes open wide. He said, “You're late”. I said, “No, I’m not”. I hugged him again but wasn’t sure if I should plant a kiss on his cheek like usual. I didn’t.

We were dancing with friends and I was saying hello to a lot of people who happened to show up. Jerry was introducing me to one of the hottest cutest guys I have seen in the club and then there was this Chinese guy B, who is a friend of the Turkish guy I like. But unfortunately on further enquiry the Turkish guy hadn’t come. So I went up to B’s boyfriend and asked if I could steal his boyfriend and was dancing with B for a while. TheFire seemed quite bothered at this. He doesn’t like B. I don’t know why, since they have never spoken to each other. So I introduced them, but TheFire looked unhappy and showed his disinterest. I must have looked quite unhappy too since after a couple minutes TheFire motioned to me to smile. I showed him some teeth and then laughed. But we drifted apart soon with him dancing with his friend and I was dancing with mine. I caught him looking at me a couple times and he caught me looking at him a couple times.

There is an uneasy sort of calm. We were talking to each other. We were smiling. We weren’t mentioning the other day at all. We even had the token arguement of the day. He was teaching me how to say the word nicaraguënse, and when he made me repeat it I simply told him that my pronounciation was quite fine, thank you very much, with a big smile and said that I didnt need his help. "Oh Really!" he said, and I replied "Really." and we both grinned from ear to ear. He came up to me when he was leaving and hugged me good night. I think he has become the forbidden fruit. Even though I am talking and smiling and having polite conversations with others, I know exactly where he is and who he is speaking to.

I just hope that this is a passing phase. All this is somehow entertaining to me though. I have to find some other guy to distract myself from him very soon.
