Break Away

August 4, 2008
Still Hanging In

I picked her out almost immediately. She was wearing a blue and brown plaid miniskirt, white stockings, a white blouse with a blue vest over it, giving a good amount of cleavage to the looking eye. Boy was I going to be one looking. Her hair was tied back into a messy bun, clipped with a small blue bow. She looked like she was going to church, noton a date meeting up with me. I walked over to the small table she was sitting at and tapped her shoulder.

"Hey, Serena." She spun around fast to the sound of my voice. She seemed to be broken out of a daze or daydream.

"Oh my god! Hi!" She wrapped her arms around my neck and gave me a small peck on the lips as a welcoming hello. I felt a small spark when her lips connected with mine, but decided to ignore it since it didn't seem to phase her.

"Wow. Aren't you a sight for sore eyes." I couldn't help but take a quick peak down at her chest when I said this. I forced myself to look up at her eyes, which were more beautiful than I remembered. They were a dark brown, almost pulling me into them.

"I know. I missed you."

"I missed you, too." We finally broke apart from each other's embrace. "So what have you been up to?"

"Oh nothing. Just hanging out, going to work."

"Really? How has work been?"

"Well you know...just work. I'm getting a new job though."

"Oh really? Tell me about it."

"Well I don't really know what will be about exactly, but I do know that it will involve working for a magazine company."

"That's cool."

After that there was a slight awkward silence. Well... more for her than for me. I was too busy looking at her beautiful eyes. The silence was broken by the waiter asking for our order. We both ordered what we usually got when we were together. Mocha-chip iced lattes. We both sipped on our cool drinks.

"Um... So I am going to be in town for a little bit. I wanted to do something special while I was here. What do you think?"

Her eyes began to sparkle. "Ooh! That sounds like a great! What did you have in mind?"

I thought quickly of something I loved to do while over in America. "How about Minature Golf?"

She seemed to hop off her seat. "Oh my! That sounds like so much fun! I know the perfect place to go too."

"Cool."

I glanced up at the clock. It was already two. Wow times flies fast when you are talking to a pretty girl. "It's getting late."

Serena turned to look. "Oh my it is. I'd better be getting home. I've gotta feed me cat." She giggled. "I'll pick you up tomorrow around two okay?"

"Yea that's good."

"Can't wait!" With that she grabbed her purse and left. I couldn't help but stare at her skirt flying behind her as she skipped away.

"Do you want your check?"

I turned my head to the waiter. "Yes. Thank you."

He laid the small slip of paper on the table. I grabbed it and begun to walk to the cashier, pictures of Serena flashing through my head.
