*Two weeks later*
Jake:
I've never been happier in my life. Everything felt good. Everything was right. We were going out tonight, the whole gang. Going to Randy's gay bar. We were going to have fun tonight. I've been waiting a whole week for today. I haven't been to Randy's in a while.
I sat at work, we were slow for a Friday afternoon. "You can go if you want." Sadie offered.
"Nah. I'll keep you company." I smiled.
"Suit yourself," she laughed.
I felt bad for her. She didn't have a lot of friends, she didn't go out much. She's such a sweet heart too. She was just really shy.
"I was wondering, we're going to Randy's tonight, wane come?"
She laughed again, "I'm not gay."
"You don't have to be, half the people who are going tonight aren't. It's a fun place, the people there are friendly... Maybe too friendly."
Sadie smiled, "Really?"
"Yeah. They'll grind up on you but-"
"No, not that, you really want me to go?"
"Yeah. Sure. Why not?"
"Eh. I don't know... I really don't go out much. I don't have many friends around here. I kind of have no life for a 21 year old."
"You have me and you can make some tonight. Everyone's cool. Trust me, you'll befriend everyone."
"Cool, what time?" she asked.
"Around 9, what your address? We'll come pick you up."
She gave me her address and I wrote it down. We spent the rest of the shift chatting, I got three tables, then I went home to get ready. I had to pick up Tyler, Vivian and Sadie. Wes, Carrie, Mike and Stacey were meeting us up there with a few more. Tonight is going to be awesome.
What do I wear? I should be a little conservative tonight since I'm going with Tyler. The thought made me smile. I'm going with Tyler. I smiled again. I put on a snug shirt and some jeans and went to Ty's house. Viv was there too so I'd only have to go to two stops.
When I got there I called them. "We're almost done," Viv said and hung up. That means another twenty minutes. I laughed to myself and waited patently. They finally got out. Viv was wearing a short, dress that stopped about mid-thigh and the end looked tutu like. Tyler was wearing a black button-up shirt with sleeves that stopped above his elbows and dark red jeans and his hair was slightly spiked.
They got in and Ty sat next to me, Viv sat in the back. "Hey," he said and kissed me.
"Hi. Were going to pick up a friend of mine, is that okay?"
"Yeah, the more the merrier," Viv said. "I text Carrie and Wes, they're going to be there around 9:15."
"Cool, we'll be there by then." I drove to Sadie's house and she was waiting outside. She hopped into the back seat.
"Hey, guys, this is Sadie, my coworker. Sadie, this is Viv and Tyler. They don't bite... Unless you're into that stuff." we all were laughing and Sadie and them were hitting it off good. A lot faster than I thought. Viv and Sadie chitchatted in the back seat and Ty was holding my hand.
"You look nice," I said. He blushed.
