I left you just about to embark on a City Break to Vienna with WW.... oooh, where to start! Where to start!
Well, the night of the lebanese meal was quite a weird night. The meal was lovely albeit a bit disjointed due to the restaurants staff having no one in charge to oversee the complex distribution of food to paying customers in a timely fashion. Still, the company was good and the food was still excellent. Once back at my abode, we sat and chatted and me being me and him being him, we ended up play fighting in my kitchen. he was trying to put a wrist or arm lock on me but I wasn't about to let him. The dog started barking and jumping about close by and then in the heat of the moment I said something about not worrying because he knew we still loved each other! Where the fuck that came from I don't know - but the words tripped out of my mouth gayly...and quicker than I'd imagined!
It was at this point that all limbs were loosened and WW just looked at me. I was worried for a split second as I thought "oh shit - that's blown it!" Trust me and my big gob. But then - probably about three or four seconds later (but in typical Mills & Boon style, it seemed like an age) WW addressed me by my full name and said "will you go out with me?"
I don't think I was quite ready for this question at that juncture but fresh from writing about how we should cherish all things 'good' that come our way - I spluttered something like "erm, yeah ok". (Eek!)
I found out a little later that he had planned to ask me on the Reisenrad (big wheel) in Vienna, but that moment "just seemed right".
Shortly after, and after a bit of a tender kiss, we had a little chat where I pointed out that I still wanted to take it easy with the whole relationship thing. "I'm still not over my ex completely" I uttered and then with a little prompting, proceeded to give him more of an insight into the crap that happened at the beginning of the year with 'The Darkside'.
So - that night, I went to sleep as someone's new girlfriend - and boy, did it feel strange......
Vienna - two days of city sightseeing, drinking, eating and general 'getting along' and 'stuff'. The whole experience was very enjoyable and easy peasy. While there I took the decision to change my relationship status on my facebook page... knowing full well that some of my friends that are also friendly with 'The Darkside' would see it with any luck it would 'get back'. Probably. Somehow.
And I hope when it did, the message was delivered with glee and the sort of 'I told you so' and 'you've missed out' vibes that make people like that squirm inside. Not that I'm bitter. much.
