Feelings

I new something had changed inside me when I saw him performing on stage and I made it mission that I wanted to make him mine. I tried to contact him on the number quoted on the concert leaflet but unfortunately the female who answered the phone refused to give me his number.

I was persistent so I redialled the number later on praying someone else answers the phone and fortunately another band member answered the phone who was kind enough to give me his number.

I was excited but also a bit hesitant about calling him, as I had never done anything like this before. I mean what would I say to him? I didn't want to sound like a fool but he was the only thing on my mind and I finally plucked up the courage and dialled his number from work.

When he answered the phone, I immediately disconnected the line as I felt silly and got tongue tied. A close friend at work was nearby and she knew what was going on and was encouraging me to call him.

I told her I'll call him some other day. I did the following day and this time I knew what I had to say and basically told him how much I enjoyed the concert and how they should promote themselves more as I had never heard of them before.

Apparently they had been performing at Uni's up and down the country for a while.

He listened to what I had to say and thanked me for my opinions and asked me to keep in touch. I was hesitant at first and spoke with him a few times but he never asked me for my number. I don't think I would have given him my number and I wonder if he knew this.

When he did eventually ask for my number, I was hesitant but my so called friends persuaded me that this was the only way to find out if he was interested in me. Guess what, I gave him my number and he bombarded me with phonecalls in the morning, afternoon and shortly before I was due to leave office. Unfortunately I didn't have a mobile and this was the only contact I had with him.

The more I spoke with him the more deeply I was falling in love with him. I think it was love as I lost my appetite and only thought about him and couldn't sleep. I spent most of the nights tossing and turning whilst listening to my personal stereo.
