The Date~

We began talking on the phone alot, I also took a new approach with this man, I told everything about me no lies, the good the bad the lies, the mistakes everything, something about him made me want to be a better woman.

I looked forward to our nightly phone calls and seeing him at the games, he fnallly asked me on a date 3 weeks after our kisses in the pool.  The date was set it was a Wednesday night and we planed to have dinner after the softball game,  I was on cloud nine.

I got to the game late and was a bit nervous, he was at bat and hit a long drive into the out feild, he was running the ball was comming back in, he slide and all that was heard was a crack and a scream.... that was it, he broke his wrist he had to be taken to th ER,  Jess drove him (the girl that lliked him as well), I followed.

She left after droping him off, I stayed for a while... found out he would need to have surgery.  His friend and his friend's wife showed up and they had called is wife (separated) she was comming to get his car and take care of him. 

He asked to see me, our date was post-poned and I left, feeling every emotion possible and wonder when, or if I would hear from him.....yes I can be a drama queen , or could be I am not (or try not to be) anymore.

I knew his surgery was the next day, I heard nothing.  Jess called me she knew alot of the guys on the department and found out that his surgery went fine and he was home.  Not the apartment he had moved into several days earlier, but his home, with his wife, his kids and his parents who lived in an in-law appartment.

I'm not gonna lie, I hung up the phone and cried for a while.... I hadn't had good experiences in love so why did I think this would be any different.  I spent the night feeling sorry for myself. 

Friday mornig, he callled.  He sounded so sweet and so sad that we had to cancel our date, he said he was staying with his wife, saying how weird it sounded but he really had no place else to go.  Let's face it I would have offered to take care of him, but how well would that have worked, we hadn't even had a n offical date....just a few make-out sessions.

Trying to sound like a secure confident woman, I commented how great that was.  He then reminded me that was leaving the next day for a week with his kids and another family they had gone on vacation with. He was taking the kids alone with a broken wrist, to Story Land I thought this man is amazing. I want to know more.

I told him to have a great time, and I wanted that date when he got back.  I hung up actually feeling like a strong confident woman.  It was a long week~
