It was more than just a kiss, I fell myself go with him, connecting in some sort of way I’ve never experienced. I felt his hands in my waist, pulling me into him, and that’s when I knew we were meant to be.
I remember as if it was yesterday, if we were talking a month ago, you might hear me really low and maybe not even speaking at all. It all began a Friday night, to be exactly November 25. I was at my apartment trying to find something that would clear my mind from all the things I had to do. Finally the friendly tv came at my sight, let’s face it when there’s nothing else to do, the tv is the best thing on the Earth. So as the hours passed I started to watch the tv, there was commercials of every type: Grow this, Loose that, but something I didn’t saw was no one was looking for love on tv. Weird that is since you see almost everything on tv. When the clock reached 2:00 am I decided to go to bed, when suddenly the phone rang. Wow!, I was living a time of bliss and then that sound, oh...well. “Hello”, “Christine?...Hey girl”, said the person in the phone. “Megan is that you?”, “Yeah is me, listen I ‘m so sorry to call so, so, so late but I have news!!!!”. She excitedly said. “What is it?, I mean it has to be important, to be calling me up so late.”, “well it actually it is...hey I’m kind of losing you, I think there’s some kind of static, any ways guess who I ran to about a few minutes ago?. Well it doesn’t matter, don’t try to figure out I’m going to tell you...”. As the phone practically went out and all the noise from what I think was a party, I started to hesitate. Then again I had to sleep, so I forgot about what happen and went off to bed.
Chapter 2
The next morning, I went to the bathroom, got myself a cup of hot tea and went to my computer room. Once I got connected I saw those 3 words that make you sometimes wanna hide: You’ve Got Mail! But I didn’t mind them this time, as I remember, I did un-subscribe of those cheese e-mails that the only thing they do, is take space of your inbox. Well I checked all 10 of them, two of them being from someone I didn’t knew, weird...
As I kept surfing the net, trying to find something to kill my time with I saw on my online friend’s list: my cousin, remember Megan?, well that’s her; My so great friend Apolo, although it will be actually good to see him more than that; and Mike, my cousin’s beau. Once they finally saw I was online the messages started to pour in, so what I did? Answer them of course, but also I popped a cd while I did it... At the background you could hear the song: “Make Me Love You”, why that song?, maybe we can say Apolo made her do that.
US_Sk8r: Hey Sweet Girl, What’s up?, I didn’t saw u at Joe’s party
M-I-K-E: Hey cos, the party was off the hook, why you didn’t came?
Meggirl: Hey Christine!! :)
Christy: I didn’t wanted to go, I was tired (she wrote to all)
M-I-K-E: SO WHAT R WE GONNA DO 2 DAY?
Meggirl: YEAH WHAT R WE GONNA DO?
US_Sk8r: How about if we go to that club...COOL GROOVES?
Christy: Sounds good to me / At what time?
Meggirl: 7:30PM
M-I-K-E: 7:30PM
US_Sk8r: OK- 7:30PM
Christy: Sure see y’all then...
Chapter 3
Well 7:30 was here, I couldn’t be more excited than this, finally I was gonna go out and have some fun. As I was riding on my BMW Z-3, Black, oh!...and convertible, thank you very much, I put on what was the song for a trip to the night-club, “SUPER GIRL”, may sound weird but is a good song, if you just listen to the beat...
Well I reached the place and of course I parked along side my friends. They were waiting for me at the front.
“Finally, we were getting worried” said Mike, ain’t he sweet, he actually cares for me... “Well I was just taking it slow, so are we going in or not?”, “Heck yeah, let’s go” claimed Apolo as he took Christine’s hand. “Oh.. Good God!” said Megan, “What is it honey?”, Mike asked; “today is like this hype but at the same time romantic day in this club, I guess we might have to dance, coming closer to Mike; very, very closely baby.”, “It’s ok with me...”. As Mike and Megan went off to the dance floor, Apolo and Christine looked at themselves, “Don’t ask...” said Christine, “I won’t”.
The club was vivid, you could feel the good vibes around and every song they played was so good, people won’t stop dancing. Immediately the DJ just jumped out “ Hey guys and gals, is 8:00 pm and you know what time it is, yes, Romantic Hour in Cool Grooves. So grab your boy / girl and get closer than you ever had...”. “Mike is our cue...”, “Let’s go momma...”. Suddenly the song started, how could I forget, it was the sweetest song ever “READY TO FALL”. How can you resist to not dancing to that song?, specially with the one you love...
As the song was playing I glanced to the dance floor and saw how happy was Mike and Megan, I wanted that, but is not my thing I guess, I mean after 21 years?, I think I have a problem. The song finished and a familiar tune came out it was *Nsync’s “FALLING”. God forbid Megan and Mike won’t dance that, that song to them was like their world apart from the real world, and I wouldn’t blame them... “Hey Mike, where’s Apolo?...” asked Megan while they were dancing. “I don’t know”.
‘Cause I’m falling, falling
Girl I’m falling for you
and I’m praying you’re falling too
I’ve been falling, falling
ever since the moment I laid eyes on you...
They kept dancing, when Christine saw Apolo talking to a pretty blond. Well that was the hard part, I didn’t wanted it to realize that I didn’t belonged to his life, at least on that way, on the way I know it would make me happy. Mike also got a hold of Apolo, “Hey Megan, there he is...” as they both look, they recognized the girl, was non other than... Yes the blond, she’s been his friend for sometime now and they seem to really hitting it up, so on that moment I started to feel out of place I mean, Mike and Megan were dancing, Apolo was with his friend and me well I was with a great companion “me”, although, it didn’t helped much. So after a few minutes I decided to leave, well at least till the song was over. Soon as the song ended Christine said bye to everyone, including Apolo.
Chapter 4
Back home, I can’t believe it was only 8:45pm, what I was going to do on an empty apartment?. Well I turned on the tv and this video of Robyn was playing, and a really good song may I add. Once it was over I went to the computer and got online, I started chatting for an hour when I get a pop-up
US_Sk8r: Why you left so early?
Christy: I wasn’t doing anything, so I decided to leave
US_Sk8er: R U MAD? Or something like that?
Christy: No, just down, but I’m ok, I’m tired (yeah right, she doesn’t believe
that herself)
After talking for half an hour Apolo said bye and Christine kept on surfing the net.
Chapter 5
Be happy and find true love, Man! the Internet really does anything to get people, actually I won’t blame them, everyone wants that. As she stepped in that page, not knowing what she was about to see, she decided to actually bookmark it. Maybe I get lucky.
Wanna Find The Love Of Your Life? — Click Here
Why not?, maybe I get lucky... She clicked and filled out the form, after she submitted it, she waited the 10 minutes they asked her to find a profile of a guy that was compatible with her. After 10 minutes passed, she checked her e-mail and got her surprise.
You’ve Got A New E-Mail!
So I clicked and to my surprise I found it was a guy from were I was, weird enough he just recently published his profile at the same date as me and same hour with the exception of a few minutes. His name, it didn’t said, so I was compatible with the Phaeton of the Opera for what I can see. He loved music like me, loved being romantic, what more can I ask?
Well it was 10 o’clock so I left him a message:
Hi I’m your compatible profile, it looks like we think alike. We didn’t put out names, yet we described ourselves very well. I hope to hear from you.
Bye, Your Profile...
Ok, Ok I know that Your Profile didn’t sound so romantic, but I was I suppose to do, Give my real name?, what if the guy turns to be some psycho or something. I don’t want no maniac tattooing my name in his arm, no-way-jose.
