The Love that Never Was

The Man who Can't be Moved

Tia
Everyone has got a funny story. I remembeor one summer in my life and I couldn't help but laugh. I am was in the beach wearing my best swimsuit. I saw him then. He was drop-dead gorgeous,huge muscles,bright eyes with long lashes and a handsome face.
I saw him looking over at our direction. I am also with my bestfriend a geeky man. His name is Allan. "Why don't you go over and introduce yourself?"suggested Allan.
I went over to him and introduced myself."I am Tia,what's your name?"he asked. Looking flattered,he stated:"I am James." Soon,he joined our circle. He was always attentive of me.
My bestfriend also wanted him for me. There was an oddity,though,that I couldn't help but notice. He was always finding away to add Allan to our conversations. "Where do you think Allan is?"he asked me one time. "Probably buying some food in the Store,why?"I asked him.
"Let me go and fetch him,it feels boring without company,"he answered. I couldn't protest because immediately following that,he left. He went back,along with Allan whose glasses were off. He looked more handsome without them. I can also tell that he can't make me out from afar,though.
He has near-sightedness. "Well,what have you been up to?"I asked them. Allan held up a bag of goodies. "Buying food,"he answered. With that,he brought out a two cones of ice cream. "Did you forget that I am a person and not a ghost?"I teased Allan.
"I thought it was two,"he answered defensively but with the same teasing tone. "Here,James,have one,"he handed one ice cream cone to him. He accepted it. "As for you,we share,"he,Allan,turned to me me. We ate the ice cream and just as we were about to finish it,I did not realize that Allan's and my lips were coming closer and closer to each other until we had actually kissed.
Our eyes were wide open and I saw James looking jealously in our direction. Suddenly,Allan's eyes closed and he deepened the kiss. I found nothing else to do but answer his kiss. He turned more and more passionate until his hands were already on my zipper. I immediately pulled away,stopping his whole right hand.
We were breathing fast."Allan,we do have company,"I reminded this best friend of mine as soon as our breaths were normal. He turned to James who still looked jealous. He suddenly stood up and walked out. I run after him.
"Wait James!"I called. Only then did he stop. "James,listen if you are jealous,I did not mean to do it,I was just taken aback,"I tried to explain. "You do not understand I am not jealous because of you,I am jealous because of Allan,"he stated. "What?"I asked him,already laughing.
"I am gay,"he clarified. Allan,who had followed us,looked taken aback and he stormed off. "We can still be friends,right?"James asked me. "Yes,but I doubt Allan wants to stay friends with you,"I answered him. He nodded,then left,then I stayed,laughing hysterically.

After that incident,James did not appear in front of me. Tia did tell me that she was still meeting him but I couldn't bring myself to do so without feeling awkward. Tia is now my girlfriend. She had just arrived from a meeting with him. "How was it?"I asked her.
"It was well and he says he is well,"she stated. "Will we always remember him?"I asked her. "Can we ever forget him?"she retorted. After those words,we both collapsed into gales of laughter. I felt like her,we can never indeed forget him.
The End
