Feelings Aligned [Englot]

[ 7 ]

But still in the early having a simple crush on this girl, doesn't mean I was fully fixated only on girls and I was open to other people too.Plus, Nick was right, it doesn't hurt to get to know more people because who knows, maybe I do like him and end up being open to the idea of getting to know him more. We looked around the bar for a bit until we found his table of friends who was at this point already tipsy while playing a game of dice. 

Nick: Guys!

(everyone greeting us) 

Nick: This here is Engfa, my girlfriend. And this is Charlotte who I grew up with

Dave: We have heard a lot about you two!

Ian: It's great you guys can join us! Please, have a seat!

Since I told Nick not to meddle with anything tonight, at this point I still don't have a clue which of his friends was the one that had interest in me. We sat down and slightly still awkward, getting used to our surroundings, Nick's friend next to me greets me. 

Kai: Hi! I'm Kai! 

Char: Hi, nice meeting you Kai

Kai: Would you like to have a drink? What drink can I get you?

Char: Oh, uhm... (thinking)

Kai: If you like something fruity and sweet I can ask the bartender to mix something for you? 

Char: Yeah that sounds great 

Kai: Nick and Engfa? What would you guys like to drink?

Dave: You're a step behind Kai, I poured them some of our whiskey already 

Kai: Alright, I'll go get a cocktail for Charlotte

Char: I can come with you then

Engfa POV

I was visibly nervous the whole way to drinks, until I actually sat down and met Nick's friends who all welcomed us and was taking care of me really well as Nick's pals. Charlotte came along to accompany me as I was the only girl and so I felt a lot more relaxed and comfortable as I thought I would be. Charlotte also seemed to be comfortable as she joins Kai to the bar to get her cocktail. 

Nick: *whispering* Are you okay? Less nervous now? 

Engfa: Yeah, don't worry! I'm having a good time (reassuring)

Nick: Good, I'm glad!

Luke: Wait, is Charlotte the girl that Kai really wanted to meet? 

Nick: *laughing* Yeah, seems like he finally got his wish tonight 

Engfa: (looking confused) 

Nick: So Kai always thought Char was pretty and so he's asked me a lot of times to get introduced to her 

Engfa: Oh... *looks at Char at the bar talking to Kai*
