I drank some water to sober up a little and he sat next to me. Apparently he was allowed in the private section, so that's where we went..

He's right, though, it is much quieter up here.

"You're not blonde anymore" I pointed out

"no, no.. I went back to my natural color" he smiled at me, "Does it look okay?"

"You look wonderful, Ni.. you're all grown up though" 

"So are you" he chuckled, "It's been, what? 6.. 7 years now?"

"7, yeah. I was 17 last time I saw you, Now I'm 24" 

"I'm 25" he smiled

"Oldie" I joked

He laughed and shook his head

"How have you been? You here with anyone?"

"My friends.. but I think they've both got rides home already" I shook my head fondly as I spoke and he nodded

"How have you been? Are you here with anyone?" I returned the questions

"I'm alright.. I own a pub back in Cheshire now. I'm just here on vacation, honestly. And no, I'm alone" 

"You own a pub? wow.. that's big, Ni"

he shrugged and asked what I did

"I help arange weddings"

"Oh? What's that like?"

"It's fun, actually... I get to make dream weddings come true.. I schedule and book for bands and fancy cakes and wine and venues."

"You sound kinda down..?" he asked 

"It's just.. always the brides maid, never the bride, right? But.. I'm the designer" I shrugged

"One day, love. You'll find someone"

I already found my someone.. 7 years ago.. but he pushed me away
