AL and I ended up that way at my house last night. Just she and I. She was in town hanging out with some of her friends for their regular Boggle game night at the Lucky Lab pub here in Portland. Last night I also had a marketing meet and greet for my work where I was able to meet a lot of the new field sales people that are out selling our product across the nation. It's pretty interesting putting faces to a voice. The meet-and-greet was put on by our sales department as a way to extend their thanks for what we've been able to accomplish during the year and full filling their client promises.
The event was supposed to start at 6pm at a local billiards hall that I tend to frequent during the weekends from time to time. I was pretty familiar with it, so I decided to get there a bit earlier than the others. I rolled into there around 4:45 or so. Since our work was footing the bill, I broke the ice with the bartender about the event and was able to line up a few free beers and billiards prior to the official start time. Made me pretty happy.
Earlier in the afternoon AL had invited me to dinner. She wanted to meet up after my work meeting and prior to her Boggle group. Unfortunately (or fortunate) the timing wouldn't work out, and it was actually better for me to come be with her and her Boggle friends.
I already knew most of her friends there, so I met the stragglers and we hit it off. To boot, AL and I ran into a common friend of ours whom was there for some drinks as well, so she and her friends pulled up to our table to partake in the activities. After another beer from me, and I bought AL dinner (she kind of side mentioned on Sunday that she was a bit broke.. easy enough for me to do was to buy her dinner), after we played Boggle for a few hours I started to get cold since we were sitting outside. I started suggesting to her that maybe we leave, so I could warm up, and she agreed to it. When we were leaving, we hugged and chatted a bit, I suggested that perhaps she could come to my place and hang out for awhile. After a bit of convincing (she didn't put up much of a disagreement) she agreed to come over. I let her know it's not as if I had any bad intentions... But she just kept saying the statement... "But you're a boy!". I looked at her and said, "No.. not really. I'm a man.". To which she smiled.
So at my house we both were in agreement... no sleeping together. No having sex that night, only take the pace that each of us was comfortable with. We spent most of the night just cuddling, carressing and conversing. About 1:30am, she finally decided to leave. No sex, no pressure, just good conversation and we learned a lot more about each other.
She makes me happy.
