We met at a local dance club/bar named The Westerner. It was a warm Friday night in mid April 2012. I was out with my friend Sara for a night of fun. Her mother was newly single and looking to hook up with a nice country boy. I was out for a night of fun and dancing.
He was the tall cowboy in a white hat and i was smitten. I remember seeing him around the bar throughout the night. A fit body and a smile with dimples- I kept thinking he was way out of my league but was very nice to look at.
The night progressed and the drinks started coming. Sara and I where at the bar while her mother sweet talked a tall handsome man. We got our next drink and where talking at the bar when the bar tender came over and asked us a surprising question.
"That guy over there wants to know if either of you ladies are single."
Sara beamed from ear to ear and said "I am not, but she is!"
I swear I saw him say "Yes."
He came over and introduced himself, as did I. We spent the night talking- danced a little and I was sad when our night ended way too soon. Sara's mom had a bit of drama so we had to cut the night short.
We didn't really start seeing each other until May of that same year. We chatted a few times and I thought that he was a perfect gentlemen. We met a few times before may- mostly on Friday's and never outside the bar. It wasn't until Sara decided to have a party at her house that we finally took our relationship to the next level.
We didn't do anything naughty- I ended up drinking way to much and got sick. He stayed by my side the whole night. He didn't need to Sara was perfectly fine taking care of me but he chose to stay right by my side.
The next night my friends took me out to Kilt night at another bar. Even though I was still a bit hungover he joined me and we had a blast hanging out again. When the end of night came I invited him over to my place. I truly didn't want the night to end.
After that we spend every weekend together. Weekends turned into weeknights and I realized that I couldn't sleep well without him by my side.
