Aaron's Story (Part Two)
Aaron excused himself after somewhat accepting my rejection. I didn't tell him I was speechless. I mean, I was actually speechless over what i had felt. I sometimes tell people that that was the precise moment that part of his lifeforce, or soul, or whatever you call it, entered me. Damn it!! He was all I could think about. During that following week, a couple guys asked me to go out to dinner with them and i found myself coming up with flimsy excuses not to go. To be honest, I didn't want to go out with those guys. I wanted to see Aaron. I must have started to ask Andrea to call Aaron for me about a dozen times, but didn't. How could I bring myself to ask her for this after so definitively shooting down her efforts just a week earlier? Amazingly, I ran into him just two weeks later at the grocery store of all places. We chatted for a few minutes in the produce department and I saw him again in the frozen food aisle. I started to ask him for his phone number but a little bit of nervousness prevented me from doing so. I think he sensed my nervous feeling and acted himself. When I got back out to my car, I saw a business card had been placed under my windshield wiper. Turning it over, I noticed it was Aaron's business card. At the bottom of the card, was his home phone number written in along with the words, "Call me Stud!" I blushed a bit and drove right home, almost running a red light and hitting a guy on his bicycle(for which I profusely apologized to the guy for). I called him and we chatted for a little over two hours. (To Be Continued)
