the pickup

ok so we’ll switch it up. We’ll go a little bit naughty this time. True story. I was working at BJ’s Wholesale Club(pausing while you get the laughing out of your systems cuz of the name…….looking at watch, ok comeon now people compose yourselves so I can continue… whistling the jeopardy theme song…ok may I? lol) part time quite a few years ago. And this is when I started coming out of my shell. Do I tell you about my exploits with co-workers, or picking up a girl one night. All are equally as good. We’ll go with picking up the girl.

Ok so a few of the guys from work, went out to the club. Some of their girlfriends showed up for a bit which was totally cool, and I ran into a group of girls I knew totally randomly. So the night is off to a great start. I’m a flirty person, some of it just playful some of it serious, and my friend kristen knew this, and so she starts busting my balls and asks me if I saw anything that caught my eye. At that point I had to respond, “no nothing has caugh………wait someone just did” then someone bumped into me. I had to turn and see what the hell, so I lost eye contact. It was my friend kevin who was stumbling drunk. I was like “dude! I just had my eye on a girl and you made me lose her” Drunkenly he yells GOOOOOO!!!!!!! FIND HER!!!!!!!!! It was so funny I still remember exactly the pitch tone and sound of how he yelled that lololol.

I really wasn’t planning on the night to unfold how it had. I had no atm card, and $30 to my name and enough gas to get home. I had fun pregaming, so I didn’t have to spend a lot when I went out. (this is pre dui btw).

Anyway I start to meander around the bar looking for this girl. In a dark club I noticed her eyes and that was what immediatley sparked my interest. Everything after I had seen her eyes, um yeah WOW! about 5’5” long curly brown hair, hazel eyes, and a body type im a sucker for. someone I would never have imagined I would ever have a chance with. I go to the other side of the club where the pool tables are and HOLY SHIT! There she is at the bar BY HERSELF. All nervous im like wtfwtfwtfwtf…..BOTH the angel and the lil devil on my shoulder were yelling at me to not be a pussy. The devil poked me in the ass with his pitchfork and the angel carried me and flew me over now I really gotta do something. So I kinda stammered and said “hi, im scott. I saw you earlier and you caught my eye. I wanted to see if I could buy you a drink before but someone bumped into me and when I turned back you were gone” “hi scott im tammy” she responds. AWESOME she acknowledged me! So i said to her “what are you drinking tonight? We’re both here at the bar and already have a fresh drink so I guess that blows my chances on that.” She turns towards me and tells me she’s drinking a long island. I asked her “how are they here, ive never had one from here before. I do love long islands tho.” She looks at me and smiles and tells me to take a sip. I do, and then I order one. We end up going and sitting down, we’re both feeling really good lol.

Now here we are sitting at the table and I’m looking at this girl in total amazement that I am actually talking to her and we’re having a great time. Another girl comes over and ends up sitting down and talking to her, it turns out to be her friend checking up on her. First thing she asks is if shes ok and who I am. Tammy tells her shes fine and says this is scott I just met him. I turn my attention toward her friend and introduce myself. (this just as im getting ready to ask her for her number) I said “hi I’m scott, I came down with a few of my friends, and saw your friend here and thought id say hi and introduce myself.” So she asks about me, felt like I was being interrogated but, it was all good I respect her for looking out for her friend. She says “ok you seem really cool, you can still talk to my friend” hmmm I got the friends approval. So I said “I was just about ready to ask tammy for her number I’ll be honest. But you came along and you really seem to care about her and shes really drunk. Do you mind if I get her number? If not its totally cool.” She talks to tammy, and I get the number. SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!!!! Her friend goes off to find some people, and tammy asks me to dance.

We go to the dance floor and start really dancing. Grinding touching fondling. Then she says to me. “what would you do if I kissed you.” Devil and angel are like OH NO SHE DI’INT …me being me I say “shit ima kiss you back!” dancing a little more, her ass grinding on my crotch I lean into her ear and say “ok my turn. What would you do if I kissed you.” “kiss me and find out” she said…….devil on my shoulder knocked out the angel so I turned her around and we were making out on the dance floor. We got so lost in each other next thing I know the lights are on. Looking around none of my friends are to be found theyre gone lol. At the end of the night there was a girl selling roses in the club so I bought one and gave it to tammy, told her my friends are gone, and asked if she minded if I walked her to her car with her friends. She says theyre going to foxwoods and asked if I wanted to go. SHIT remember earlier I only had $30 no atm card and enough gas to get home YIKES! Me being an idiot said SURE! Thinking I could make it there and back home. Halfway there I fess up to her and tell her I don’t have enough gas to make it, and my predicament. She tells me not to worry about it shell call her friends and tell her she cant go. So turn around we go I find out where she lives aye carumba. No way am I making it. Fuckfuckfuck!

Now im shittin my pants worrying. Were holding hands and I said to her “I know we just met but can you either let me borrow $5 and ill pay you back tomorrow or we go to my house just so I can get my atm card then ill bring you home.” What she says next OMG…. “welllll I can always just stay at your house right?” wowowowow im thinking, she just invited herself over! Mind you I also have to work at 9am so what do I do? We get back to my house and I call out! Haha

We get in my room and start kissing, lay in the bed and start to fool around a little bit. FUCKME WAS I HORNY! I reached for the button on her jeans, and she stops me. No I can’t, im not feeling to good. (dieing sound of super mario from super mario brothers echos thru my head) but I respect her, tell her no problem, ill go sleep on the futon if you wanna stay in the bed, its more comfy than the futon. She tells me no she wants me to hold her.
Haha not the ending you were expecting was it? While nothing transpired sexually that night we did go on to be friends and saw each other for awhile, but sadly life makes things change sometimes, and we drifted a apart. They say people come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. Obviously it wasn’t for a lifetime. But I wonder, was it for a reason? Or a season?
