The night continues

Paul is sitting, finishing his second beer as you return to the living room.

“Don’t say anything “ with a hand up, you preemptively silence him.

Sitting back down , you take a sip of the beer but instead you chug it and belch.

“Damn, that’s good.” You say wiping your mouth with the back of your hand.

“Yeah, they are right, they’re new I think” Paul says, “want another one? I’m gonna get one?”

“Sure, I could drink one or two more.” You answer, but you’re already feeling a decent buzz.

‘Go easy’ you tell yourself but the beers are tasting good tonight.

Paul returns and hands you your beer.

You take a pull. You and Paul shoot the shit for a while, he’s clearly feeling awkward as a loaded silence falls between you.

He’s obviously very attracted to you and if you’re being honest with yourself, Paul is handsome. Square jaw, good hairline, nice eyes, big arms, you’re pretty sure x-Change can’t augment sexual orientation but you feel the attraction to.

You finish the last sip of your beer.

“One more drink,” you ask.

“Yeah thanks Erin.”
