On or Off

He sighed and pushed himself from against his spot on the wall. This is pointless. She's not here. She said she was working but I don't see her. I'm just going to go upstairs and look for her there. He made his way up to the second floor. As he was going up the stairs he felt someone bump into his shoulder. He turned to apologize when he saw her.

She was standing by the balcony that overlooked the main dance floor. Beside her was some guy. He's standing awfully close to her; too close. What is she doing talking to this guy when she's supposed to be working?

"Oh I'm sorry. I didn't see you," Clarence heard.

He focused on the person that had just bumped into him. She was shorter than him by a good four inches with short blonde hair and ice blue eyes.

"Oh don't worry about it," he said," no harm done".

What the hell is he doing whispering in her ear?!

"Are you sure? You seem kinda upset," she said.

"Wha .. ? Oh no, honestly. Here let me buy you a drink to show there are no hard feelings," said Clarence.

They moved over to the bar where he ordered her a beer and a drink for himself. He kept his eye on Christine and the guy she was talking to.

Oh wait she's coming this way.

"So do you come her often? That's a nice outfit you're wearing," he said to the girl as she sat drinking her beer.

"What are you doing here?" Christine asked Clarence.

"I could ask you the same thing but I wouldn't want your boyfriend over there to get jealous," he said.

"Oh puhleeze. Why would you care who I was talking to. You've got your hands full," replied Christine.

"Ummm excuse me," said the girl getting up," I have to go. Thanks for the beer". She left.

"Oh don't leave on my account," said Christine.

"Christine wait," said Clarence.

"I've got to go to work Clarence. Leave me alone."

"Fine. That's what I should have done when I first met you. You really are a coat B*tch you know."

Christine turned around slowly and Clarence took a step back despite himself.

"I hope you get your fuckin' coat before I do."

She turned towards the stairs. Clarence got up and walked upstairs and got his coat. As he left he looked for Christine but didn't see her.

The next morning Clarence got up and turned on the computer.

I blew it. I shouldn't have gone off like that. So she's talking to some guy, it's not like we're boyfriend and girlfriend. What's the big deal?

[Private Message]
Shovel_boy: Some girl I met at a club, well actually we've been talking on-line alot. *blush* But when I saw her at this club she was talking to this guy and I kinda lost it. We ended up yelling at each other. And I walked out. I feel terrible.

[Private Message]
Drizzle Rain: Well you're going to have to apologize to her.

[Private Message]
Shovel_boy: What if she won't talk to me again? What if I've ruined it?

[Private Message]
Drizzle Rain: You've still got to apologize. And there's only one way to know for sure if she'll still talk with you. I have a feeling she will. Us women are pretty forgiving like that. We have to be with you men around. *L*

[Private Message]
Shovel_boy: Yeah I guess. *sigh* I feel so bad not having her around. I know we've just met but I already feel connected to her. I don't want to lose her.

[Private Message]
