While she loved you, she needed something more; something you didn’t have. After spending some time at the bar, trying to calm her nerves, she could...’t help but catch the eye of a handsome man across the bar. Lost in her drunkenness, she told herself to go talk to him. She told herself it will just be this once and, that way, she won’t have any regrets down the road.As they made their way up to his hotel room, she started having second thoughts but pushed them aside when he kissed her neck;. The teacher glanced at him and said “You may go sit there” pointing at a desk at the end of the classroom, right behind a very cute girl, a red-haired, pale-skinned beauty, probably of Irish descent. But things that look too good to be true usually are, as he found himself sitting next to a 6’2” wall of muscle who had already locked his sights onto the him. He sat down with a slight sigh, putting his backpack down and deciding to try and pay attention to the class. His peace was short-lived. I played a couple games solo and went back to the bar for another beer.A guy was sitting on a stool at the bar and I asked him if he wanted to play for a beer. I learned later his name was Steve and he had just gotten out of the army and passing through town on his way back home. I hadn't been of of the service too long so we had something in common.Steve was a good pool player, beat me three straight games.The beer was starting to cycle through to my bladder. I told Steve I needed a piss. I'd always waited for Tina to show up before I got beyond the initial cooking prep."Allen takes good care of me," Jenna said."Have to earn my keep," Allen joked."You're not working?" I asked."Oh, I've got a few shifts tending bar," Allen answered. "I can't start school until the fall."We fell to talking about his academic plans, which mostly consisted of getting some biology classes under his belt so he could apply to a program in criminal forensics. Tina asked Jenna about her classes and Jenna.
