A Night To Remember

I'll have worked in the same place for six months, come the 23rd of this month. During this time I managed to develop a crush on a guy in the Produce department, but he never seemed to know I existed. (Of course that was only because I had convinced myself that I would never be noticed.) In time we managed to have a few conversations, one of which found us both admitting that we loved fantasy (a subject most employees avoid like the plague, for fear of being mocked).

After that discussion I had hoped that we would at least become good friends. Alas, another girl (for whom I have a lot of respect) befriended him and they started hanging out. I stepped to the side, afraid to intrude.

But, today he asked me out. Well, sort of. It was more a friend-thing, but the fact that he came out of his way to invite me to his brother's concert is incredible. We had spent the entire morning at work smiling shyly (we're neither of us outgoing at first) at each other as we walked by the others work place and, at last, we are really friends.

Ah, warm fuzzies.

For the record, the concert was a lot of fun, and I enjoyed his company very much.Having such a friend is a great feeling.What were the foremost topics of the evening? His mission, Institute, and Family. How many dates are like that?
