Walking into the restaurant I could believe I was on another blind date. Guys seem to tell me they like me and the false security kicks in. After one night of fun they want out of my life faster than a bullet out of a gun. I need a nice guy who likes me for who I am. My thoughts were abruptly interrupted by a large muscular man talking to the host. No way! I thought. Sindy hooked me up with a hunk! He walked toward me and without missing a step sat next to the girl at the table behind me. I envied that girl. Skinny, big boobs, small waist and legs that go on for decades.
“Hello Miss? You wouldn’t happen to be Bri would you? I have been walking around this restaurant for like ten minutes trying to find this blind date.” He was tall and and had the physique of an athlete with the cutest smile. Not the usual type of man Sindy finds.
“Ha ha, yes I’m Bri. I take it you are Cody?” I said with a chuckle. His blue shirt matched his eyes and I found myself drawn to his smile.
“Waiter! I’m ready to order! SIR! OVER HERE!” He yelled across the room. Okay so he is a little obnoxious, nothing I cant handle , right? Just as long as he doesn’t order food for me.
“I will have a Miller Light please, the New York strip with a side order of shrimp cocktail and a baked potato. The woman here will have a side garden salad with no dressing and a water. Thank you goodbye.” A salad? Like I need a salad. I’m starving and this jerk orders me a salad, not to mention all he has said so far is that he is hungry.
Grinding his food into mush he rambles on about how he is going to be a hockey player and that his buddies are dicks and that he needs a girl in his life.
“Okay Cody slow it down. No one wants to pull out a Heimlich maneuver tonight. So what kind of girls do you usually date?”
“Well for the last month I have been on and off with these two girls Sandy and Alicia. Those girls are crazy! Sandy would call me non-stop asking where I was and I’m like hey…I’m at Donny’s CUT ME SOME SLACK! Alicia is my girl. Never calls doesn’t ask questions but gets down like there’s no tomorrow ha you know? In an instant without saying a word I got up from the table and stormed out of the restaurant.
“Dammit Sindy!” I growled as I made my way to the car.

Hey, Cody.
I could definitely tell that you had taken the girl's perspective in this date. You did a good job conveying her attitude and what she thought. At the end though, you may want to clean it up just a bit. There were no closing quotations marks to end the male's final words. You simply go into the female leaving. "Never calls doesn’t ask questions but gets down like there’s no tomorrow ha you know? In an instant without saying a word I got up from the table and stormed out of the restaurant." I thought your story was kinda funny, too! "pull out a Heimlich maneuver" ...lol...good stuff. Thanks.
Haha... I don't know what you're like in real life, but do you really consider yourself to be like that? :D
Either way, I love the phrase "legs that go on for decades." It sort of foreshadows how there will be no "going on for decades" between Bri and Cody(/you).
