"Certainly his loss, if you ask me." he says kindly and I can feel the heat rise in my cheeks
Ughh,what is the matter with me?He isn't even my type!
"And ... I think it is great that you ... didn't give in. Too many girls do that I think and really regret it later."
"I'm glad I didn't either." I give him a wry smile "So,what about you?I told you about my worst relationship...now it's your turn."

Occ: Ok, so I hate to replace Faith when her mother is in the hospital but we really need a Maria post and I PM'ed her to let her know where we are so she could catch up and again, we haven't heard from her and she hasn't read the PM yet. So, if nobody objects, I was thinking of posting once or twice for her until she can catch up. That way, we don't have to replace her just yet since she wants to still play. Any objections?
~LIZ~
Now this conversation seems to be going somewhere. I smile at him, using what I hope is a beguiling look and start to dance a little closer. "You don't strike me as the romantic type, honestly," I admit. I glance at his hair and ask, "What do you listen to when you're in the kitchen by yourself, trying to create something new? I'm guessing some kind of heavy metal band...someone like Metallica. Am I right?"
~KYLE~
She holds up her pinkie and promises not to laugh and I laugh a little at her offer, to cover nervousness or just because she's so cute, I'm not sure. Her offer to let me pick out a nickname for her causes all sorts of thoughts to pop into my head and I flush a little at them...not that they're all sordid or dirty but rather that most of them are ones that I have never really liked. You know, sweetheart, honey, my love...Whoa! Where did all these thoughts come from?
I spin around a little and then take her and dance her around me to try to collect my thoughts. Then I say, "Ok, I'll tell you. It was given to me by my mother. She used to call me 'Laugh-a-lot Bear'." There! I finally admitted it out loud. Then I give her a mock glare. "And if you tell anybody about this, I'll have to do something horrible to you!" I warn her.

"So,what about you?I told you about my worst relationship...now it's your turn."
Damn, she asked, well maybe I can weasel myself out of this. "C'mon, I'm sure you don't want to hear such pathetic tales."
Uh no, she's giving me a 'Don't mess with me' look so I guess she does want to know.
"Alright alright." I sigh, taking another sip of my drink. "It was in college, my last year. I dated this girl for about 13 months when she started to ... put some distance between us. I got really nervous because I liked her a lot so on her birthday I ... made a fool out of myself in front of our friends in an attempt to win her bacl."
I take another gulp of my drink. "Well, she wasn't too impressed - she was more laughing at me than with me. I was really miserable, sure I had ruined things forever but then she came to my appartement and informed me that she had been seeing another guy for about half a year already and she broke up with me, informing me about all the things she didn' tlike about me in a not too gentle way."
"I wish I could say it didn't really affect me but it was actualyl my last real relationship so ... I guess that makes me an emotional wimp."
OMG, why did I tell her that? She'll think I'm such a wuss.

OOC-awesome post Trude
Isabel
He hesitates and tries to get out of the conveersation,"C'mon, I'm sure you don't want to hear such pathetic tales." but I simply narrow my eyes at him and that's enough to make him acquiese
I listen as he narrates his tale of woe,"...made a fool out of myself in front of our friends in an attempt to win her bacl." I prick up my ears at that
Now what could he have done?
I inwardly cringe when he tells me how she dumped him.That had to have hurt."I wish I could say it didn't really affect me but it was actualyl my last real relationship so ... I guess that makes me an emotional wimp."
I feel so bad for him.
Reaching out I take his hand in mine,"No you're not.That was very brave of you to try and win her back.You're a sweet thoughtful man.Now...what was it that you did that made her laugh?" I ask with an amused grin

I grin slightly at that. Brave? Crazy and embarrassing is more like it but it is nice that Isabel thinks so.
Now...what was it that you did that made her laugh?"
She just had to ask didn't she? I glance to the other guys for a moment, they don't know this yet and I'd rather keep it that way.
I lean closer to Isabel, "Can you keep a secret?"

I give Michael a triumphant smile and as the song comes to an end, I realize that while I enjoy talking with Michael, I'm not really attracted to him. That spark just isn't there. He's a nice guy and seems like he'd be a blast to hang out with but I think we'd be better off as friends. As the next song starts playing, I move over to Michael and say, "Do you mind if we go back up to our table? I kinda need another drink." As we move to the stairs to go back upstairs, I tell him honestly, "Michael, you're a good dancer and you seem like a really nice guy but I have to admit that I don't think you and I really mesh well as anything more than friends. I'd love to hang out with you some time though, and I'm definitely still interested in that cooking demonstration party thingy." I smile at him and hope he wasn't really interested in me either.
~KYLE~
I can see Tess is trying to hold something back after I tell her my old nickname but it doesn't look like laughter so I leave it alone. Then she says that it's cute and something special to remember. I feel my cheeks heat up and I can't help but think, 'Damn! I haven't blushed this much in all my life.' This girl sure seems special.
When the song ends and the next begins, I realize that nature is calling and I smile at Tess. "Do you mind if I excuse myself for a few minutes?"

Occ: Hope this is ok for Maria. FaithfulAngel24, if you see this and it's no good, PM me and I'll change it but I had to explain Maria's absence in the conversations.
*MARIA*
I have been so stunned by the appearance of the spitting image of the man that I was trying to avoid that I had to excuse myself to go to the restroom after Liz introduced us to Michael, Kyle and Alex. I cannot believe that I was just saying that I was going to go out of my way to stay away from guys with cute buts and crazy hair and then this, this Michael shows up on the scene! He is cute but I can tell from one look that he is trouble.
A guy that's only a little taller than me walks up to me as I exit the bathroom and smiles. I smile back. Now he looks safe. His hair is buzzed, though there does seem to be a receding hairline, and he's wearing wire-framed glasses and he's just got that safe look to him. "Hi," I say, coming closer to him. "I'm Maria. Wanna buy me a drink?"
He kind of gulps nervously but stutters out, "Sure!" I lead the way over to the bar and we sit on one of the stools.

"Yeah sure.I promise I won't tell a soul."
I grin when Isabel makes a show of zipping her mouth (not for real of course) and feel almost bad about my next words. Almost!
"Well, that is great Ms. Isabel because ..." I glance around a bit, "I can too!"
With that, I lean back slightly and watch as her mouth opens in shock, grinning even more (and this time a bit evilly I guess). "I'm sorry Isabel but ... not even your brother and the other two know so ... maybe I'll tell you one day if we get to know us better but ... this was the most embarrassing moment in my life, I'm not going around telling it."
Especially to beautiful women I just met an hour ago.
Looking away from Isabel, feeling a tiny bit guilty - which is nothing compared to the embarrassemt I'd feel if I'd really told her - I spot Liz walking up the stairs.
"Hey look, Liz is coming back I think, we better start talking about marriage then."
"Yeah sure.I promise I won't tell a soul."
