Night out
So Turkish guy called me up and says he had a nice time and wanted to know if I am free on Saturday. Unfortunately I am not. I have this dance competition coming up and I had practice scheduled from 7 to 11 with my dance partners at a local ballroom social dance that evening.
But since I couldn’t say No, I said that I would but could only do it after 11. So we decided that we would head out to the club. Dance practice was all good, oh did I tell you guys that I am going to be participating in seven events in Tango, Merengue, foxtrot and cha-cha. Anyways saturday came and I didn’t get as much practice as I would have hoped to get and finally when it was time and I was done with practice, I called him up.
For a grad student he lives pretty nice in my opinion. He lives in a studio all by himself and keeps it pretty clean from what I could see. It’s really close to downtown district and so is very close to my dance classes.
He come down the stairs and hopped into my car. We then drove to the club. We sat together for a while hoping there would be more people who would start dancing. He was smiling a lot more than the previous night and since I like the way he smiles that was a good thing. He actually got to drink alcohol since he wasn’t driving. TheFire came up to us and gave me a peck on the cheek which I politely returned. He waited for me to introduce us and then gave up and asked me to introduce him to TurkishGuy(TG). So I introduce TG as my date at which TheFire’s eyes light up and he smiles. So I gave him an impish smile.
I should maybe mention here that I had met TheFire at the club the week before and he was with someone else looking all broody. The moment I walked up to them, TheFire had gotten up and gave me seven really tight hugs within the span of a minute. I am not sure what that was supposed to tell me, since he was with another guy. So I gave him this dirty look and walked off.
cimng back to this saturday, TheFire then proceeded to ask TG and I to dance with him. I politely declined but TG decided that he wanted to dance afterall. So we danced. TheFire was there all the time dancing side by side with us. TG was really getting his groove on and smiling a lot. This made me happy. A guy that loves to dance always makes me happy. TheFire was also strangely happy. So we were all a bunch of happy guys dancing around. TheFire leans over and whispers to me that he thinks that TG is a really nice guy. So I simply replied that I knew that. Then we made some small talk. Then I and TG made some small talk. Then TG went out to smoke. I went out with him and TheFire followed us out.
So there we were, TheFire and I, not smoking and TG smoking. So apparently he smokes like 2 cigarettes a day since he re-started his smoking recently. Normally I would have never considered dating a guy who smoked but strangely enough, I made an exception for TG. I did know that he smoked even when I asked him out. I am actually glad that he only smokes 2 a day. From his apartment, I couldn’t have told you that he smoked.
TG left us alone for a second to go and put out his cigarette. In the short time that we had, TheFire said to me, “I didn’t have sex with him.” After a brief pause, when I looked puzzled, he added, “The guy, last week”. So I wanted to say, “Why are you telling me this?” which came out more like, “What did you just say?” with one eyebrow raised, which he interpreted to mean, “Yeah, right. I don’t believe you.” He then proceeded to repeat again to me, that he did not have sex with that guy last week and that swore that he was telling me the truth. We both didn’t say a word after TG got back to where were all were standing. I was staring at TheFire. TG said something funny to TheFire and we all went back in. Once we were all back in, TG went to the loo and TheFire again came up and told me that he was telling me the truth. I just stared. I said, “Don’t worry about it.” But not very convincingly. So when TG came back, he said that he liked TG a lot and that he was a nice guy. so TG asked him how he knew and TheFire said that he could see it in his eyes. to which TG and I smiled and kept quiet. He then apologised and said that he wanted to leave us alone.
TG and I spent some time talking around the bar. He was starting to get really drunk and we both ended up yelling like school girls just for the heck of it in an apparent screaming contest. Then we went back to dancing. He was really enjoying the dancing. We did some Bachata moves and some cha-cha moves and he was showing me some flamenco dancing moves.
Overall I think it was a nice time. When I dropped him off we talked about getting together some other time. But over the week my only day that was free and I wasn’t doing dance practice was Tuesday and he emailed to tell me that he wont be able to make it this Tuesday as one of his old friends was going to be in town.
Thursday, I went to this international dance festival with LordOfHearts and had a nice time there. They had some songs from Rang De Basanti.
This weekend, I have the dance competition. I will keep you guys informed of what happened when I get back in town.
