The day had been a hard one. One of many that had been plaguing him lately. Usually he didn't let his friends get a hold of him, but tonight it was all he could not to jump at the chance to get out of his empty place.
"What the fuck, man..." Brian asked him. "What's been going on with you? You never come out anymore."
"I just don't have a reason." Joe replied. "I mean it's not like I really have anything really going on, so why bother."
"Dude, it's been months. You need to let her go and just find a good fuck and get all this bullshit over with." With that Joe just tuned out the boy's for most of the night. He drank and replied when needed in the conversations, but for the most part kept to himself.
After a good part of the night was over, Joe found himself really getting into the fun and beginning to calm down. Nice and buzzed, he listened to his friends talk more and more about a woman watching him from across the bar.
"Just go fucking talk to her," Drew told him, "maybe this just what you need." After more than likely too long thinking it through, Joe finally walked over to her.
From afar this woman had nothing really great about her. Just your "run of the mill" woman, but as Joe got closer to her, he really saw her. She was wearing a short black dress that showed off her legs very well and she had something about her face that made Joe awe as he stared in her lavender eyes.
