First Actual Date

Date: 1/12/2025

I was at work and there was like a school there? My manager had texted me in the morning to call her saying it was important. So I do and she offers to promote me to the next managing position since I did so well the night before and I’ve always done well. But I decide to not accept the position despite the increase in pay, bc I don’t want to deal with all the other responsibilities that come with that roles. Anyway I was interacting with the kids. So I go to the break room and my friend comes in with this guy and I see the guy look at me and he smiles, and j smile back and look away, trying to play it cool. And my friend is like trying to hype me up to him saying I’m cool and whatever and to give me a chance. And he’s like humming in thought. My heart is beating bc I’m a bit chubby so I’m thinking, this guy isn’t gonna want to go out with me. But he eventually agrees and is like “wanna go out some time?” And I think bc usually I’ll lie and say I’m taken or say no bc I get too nervous, but I agreed…and my friend said we could go to a hockey game together so it isn’t awkward. And she was like “you just have to cheer loudly for his favorite team”. I notice he has an accent and ask him if he’s Irish. And he’s like nah I’m British. But it sounded Irish. Anyway the setting changes and we’re in some kind of kitchen? We’re talking and I’m enjoying his company and a mouse appears and I start screaming and climbing into the cabinets to get away from it, and he starts laughing which makes me laugh bc I’m embarrassing myself but he seems to find it cute. Cuts back to work or someplace? Not cute but turns out he’s like in this band or something and he has these band mate friends and I stay and watch them perform and dance a bit, getting to know his friends. Then something happens, I can’t remember what exactly, but he seems worried and he has one of his friends lead me out but I walk on my own. Turns out these guys came in and attacked the place. The guy I was dating ends up dying and his friend breaks the news to me and I start crying bc turns out I actually liked this guy more than I thought. And his friend has a crush on me and tries to comfort me but feels bad that I’m hung up over another guy when he’s right there.
