PROGRESS
We sat there for a while sipping our drinks when she said, "I stay with my sister in D.C, we lost our parents when I was 14 and she was 11. We had to move in with our mother's best friend and that was how I met Kristian". "I am sorry to hear that", I said gently putting my glass down. I didn't know why she was telling me all of this when we just met today although we had already shared a kiss earlier, but that aside…it meant that she was comfortable enough around me to tell me these things. That's a green light right there isn't it?! I bet my heart is beating twice as fast as it should right now because luck was definitely in my favour and I was definitely not messing it up. Her voice drowned out the excitement in my mind and heart, "oh it's fine, it's been long since they died, nothing to be sorry for". "Oh yea, sorry for that too", I said trying my best to look apologetic. "Wait….'for that too?', what were you sorry for initially?" She said sounding and looking really surprised. "Um nothing", I said smiling. "You better tell me now or I am getting up and leaving you to drink by yourself this instant. And just so you know, you were looking really lonely and pathetic when I walked in and saw you drinking by yourself", she said trying to seem so serious but the twinkle in her eyes keeps giving her away. "Okay okay Miss my loneliness saver, I was sorry that you had to meet that douchbag at such a young age. There it is, now can we talk about why you are wearing so little, aren't you cold?"
It must have taken her time to process what I said because it took her about two minutes before she burst into a laughter and said, "what makes you think you are not a douchbag too? Huh? Mr Lonliness?" "That's not what I asked you Mia", I said feeling really concerned. I didn't bother waiting for her reply anymore as I took off my coat and put it around her. "I am really not cold, what are you doing?" She said looking embarrassed. "If you say so", I shrugged "Just keep it as a souvenir to remember the day you kissed this hot lips", I said swiping my right thumb slowly at my bottom lip. She laughed again and there it was the one thing I know will make my night henceforth. I stood up abruptly, took her hand and pulled her up too, let's get you back in your room before you catch a terrible cold.
"I don't wanna go in yet", she said whining. "Let me guess, you came out dressed like this to get hit on and probably waltzed to a hotel by a charming stranger just so you can get back at your ex….am I right or AM I right?"
