Ridiculous Series of School/Bookstore Encounters

[Ian Smith]

Okay, so a little background before I explain this crazy-awesome day I had. Recently, I have been insane with improving my physical fitness, in about 2 months I have gone from being in decent shape to being in the best shape of my life, dramatic noticeable changes can be seen just be looking at me. Not only am I bigger, stronger, and more defined, but my posture and overall demeanor has gone from good to excellent. Why am I explaining this to you? Because I think it may have been the most important factor in this day that I had yesterday.

My day began with an 8:00am test, I am dressed in my favorite jeans and t-shirt, one I got at the Love Parade in Germany, simple yet intriguing to say the least. Nothing else special, no jewelery, no peacocking, gym shoes on, and my favorite AX belt. So I walk into the test period a few minutes late (as usual) and see an open seat in the back next to a cute girl with brown hair and green eyes in the back. We'll call her Green Eyes. She notices me approaching and smiles while making eye contact, I return the eye contact and smile as well. I sit down in this chair that I think was half broken, as I sit it feels like my ass in about 6 inches off the ground. So while the teacher is talking about the test, I get up, kick the chair back into the corner (making it slide) and walk up to the front and grab one of these luxurious looking chairs up by the front. As I sit down, Green Eyes is looking at me and laughing, like I'm amusing her or something, which I probably was. Not 2 minutes later she nudges me and says:

GE: My chair sucks too, switch with me
ME: Not a chance, my ass groove has already been made in this baby! Oooh it feels nice, that chair looks like it hurts.
GE: Help me get a new one! Pleaaase?
ME: Ugh, come on be a big girl and do it yourself, they are right up there.
GE: This teacher hates me! You're not in my class (the test was for 2 different classes) I bet she likes you, I mean you did just walk in front of her while she was talking.

TEACHER: YOU TWO IN THE BACK, DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY? OR ARE YOU READY TO TAKE THE TEST?

We both shut up momentarily.

GE: Pleaaaaaaase? You look so comfortable.
ME: Get up!

As soon as she gets up, I slide her chair to the back of the room so she is forced to either go get the crappy chair back or go get a nice one, she goes and gets another nice chair and sits back to me and punches me in the arm before beginning her test.

We take the test and finish around the same time, I walk out before her but meet her at the elevator, we engage in some quick small talk in the elevator that is packed with people, she hands me her number before exiting, the proceeds to leave without saying anything. I shrug, since I'm a bit confused, but stick the number in my pocket and continue on with my day. Homerun.

About an hour later I head to the bookstore down the street from my school and find myself the biggest, and highest table in the coffee shop to setup at. As I sit there alone, behind a mountain of books, papers, laptops, and food, I see a group of three girls and a teacher studying.

The suspense is killing me..... absolutely cruel to do this. Good pick up by the way. And she just gave you her number with absolutely no indication of asking for it or getting together at a later date?

now this one i haven't heard about... but to actually push a girl's chair far enough away from her that she actually has to go sit somewhere else or go get a big one.. on the spot in front of everybody. what sane girl wouldn't cough up her phone number for that stunt before asked for it

[Nicholas Fahrenheit]

Lol, whoever was in the chat with him yesterday knows what happens next. It's well worth waiting for. I want to see it in better detail though, so I'm with you guys.

[Ian Smith]

First to answer a question, yes the first girl just handed me her number. Oddly enough, girls actually DO want to be approached and in relationships as much as we do. Not all of them will put themselves out on a limb like that, but nonetheless keep it in mind.

So as I sit propped up at the top of the bookstore, surrounded by all sorts of books, my laptop, my MMA gloves, and tons of fresh cut fruits and veggies, I made eye contact with the very cute girl sitting in the group. I was getting looks from people everywhere, I was sticking out for various reasons, "Passive Peacocking" if you will. I had a fresh cut pineapple I was munching on, music blasting in my headphones, talking on the phone doing business, being approached by people I knew, and all of the other things I mentioned. Bottom line is that I was sticking out of the crowd, very easily.

So I make eye contact with The Cute Dork, CD for short. We hold for a second, I smile and she breaks it, I can tell shes a little shy. Because a few minutes later, I look up and catch her peaking at me again. Again, I smile and she smiles back. We hold eye contact for another few seconds, and I break it and return back to my school work. This happens several more times, each time the eye contact gets longer and stronger each time. Soon enough, I'm not paying any attention to what I'm doing, and she's completely ignoring her study group. I start laughing and she looks at me with this confused look. I grabbed a notebook and a marker and wrote on a fresh page "Stop soulgazing and get back to work!" on it, and flashed it to her. She laughs and returns to work. At this point, at least an hour has passed, her group breaks for a few minutes and she goes to grab a coffee. Once again I catch her looking at me, this time, I wave her over. As she walks over, we maintain the same strong eye contact we have been doing for the past hour.

ME: So where do we go from here?
CD: What do you mean?
ME: Well, I already know your interested in me, and you know the same. So we can skip alot of bullshit don't ya think.
CD: Huh, well, that's a big assumption, but I guess you've got a point.
ME: Good, take a seat. What's your name?
CD: Blah
ME: Blah

We chit chat for a little while, about what she is studying, I took a wild guess and I was right about the subject matter, then it turns out I knew alot about what she was having trouble with. She goes and gets her book and I help her through a problem, then her group sits back down and tells her to come over. She goes to leave. And I ask her if she is forgetting something. I slide my phone over to her, and (not slick) it falls off the table and smashes into the floor. We both start laughing and she makes fun of me for trying to be slick, she puts her number in it and hands it to me, with a smile. Then she returns to her group with the answer I gave her, and everyone thanks me. Brownie points!

-------------------to be continued...again!

[Daniel Becerra]

Your phone fell on the floor... HAHA
I can picture your face going "Noo0o!" while trying to be slick!
Anyway, good job
You're on fire!

[Action]

Anything that ends with both brownies and points is good by me.
Inspirational stuff as always, Meth. "CD: Huh, well, that's a big assumption, but I guess you've got a point." I love how it seems like she's thinking of resisting at first, but you've got her way too hooked.

[Zthirtytwo]

ARG, more suspense, but it was worth waiting to hear another part of that story.
