Moochie’s Mementos (and a pic or two)

[Moochienanu]

He saw her looking at him from across the room
They locked eyes
And the air was sucked out.
She couldn’t look away.
It was like he was touching her from all the way over there…
He finally started the trek to her.
It was almost like he floated over,
The way he was able to make his way through,
Around, and skirting amongst
The gyrating mob of dancers on the floor.

 

[Moochienanu]

(psst, Moochie: faster! Please!)

(Hey! I’m doin’ my best here! Can’t get ahead of myself… and also, life. I’ve been writing since the last hour of work! )

Enjoying your writing Moochie...can feel the bar and the tension.

She had looked down at the Diet Coke she ordered
Thanked the bartender
And was surprised by his disappearance
When she looked back over
To where he was once moving amongst the crowd a minute ago.
With a disappointed sigh, she turned to a booth in the back,
Resigned to spend the night alone,
Sipping her soda and crowd watching.
But, when she turned to the empty booth, there he was.

yes want more, but part of it is the wait as the story builds over time.. so I sit and enjoy. WOW

 

[Moochienanu]

She tried not to give a startled reaction to seeing him there…
Like it was natural…
Like it wasn’t what she was hoping for…
Like strange, interesting men looked at her that way all the time…
He motioned for her to join him
And she found herself walking towards the booth
Towards him
Towards their beginning and end

 

[Moochienanu]

“For a second there, I wasn’t sure you saw me” he said
He looked almost surprised
Almost shy
Almost
“How could I not?” She asked, leaning in to hear him better
Over the sound of the music
And her heart beating so loudly
“You’d be surprised who looks a ghost like me over at a party like this, Miss Audrey” he whispered into her ear
She couldn’t help but smile
“You caught me!” She exclaimed
Then she couldn’t help herself and quoted the movie for him:
“You musn't give your heart to a wild thing. The more you do, the stronger they get, until they're strong enough to run into the woods or fly into a tree. And then to a higher tree and then to the sky.”
“Do you think I’m wild?” He growled, lifting an eyebrow and pulling her in closer playfully

 

[Moochienanu]

Needless to say, the night was wonderful.
He was funny
She was witty
They exchanged short stories,
Anecdotes,
Brief histories…
It was like they had known each other forever -
Had been old, close friends for so long,
They would never have been mistaken
As strangers who had just met

 

[Moochienanu]

It was coming to the end of the night
They both could feel a tension:
They didn’t want to say goodbye.
She pulled her cell from her little black purse
“Put your number in for me?” She asked, handing it to him
He placed the phone on the table quickly
“There’s this weird thing with me,” he started
“Electronics just go haywire. I guess I have a high magnetic resonance or something?”
She gave him the look
“No! Seriously!” He said “look at your phone since I touched it.”
She did and the screen was black.
It wouldn’t turn on.
It wouldn’t even make a sound.
“Fuck…” she muttered
“Yeah,” he answered, “imagine being me.”
She smiled at the thought, “Oh, I definitely can’t do that.”

(Who’s still with me?)

 

[scotluvsoral]

(Who’s still with me?)

Me, for a little while longer *SS*

 

[Moochienanu]

Me, for a little while longer *SS*

hmmm… I only have a little bit longer too. I’ll write one more bit and then I will be back in a couple hours if there is still interest.

 

[scotluvsoral]

hmmm… I only have a little bit longer too. I’ll write one more bit and then I will be back in a couple hours if there is still interest.

I will be back in the morning and catch up then. I have about 10 minutes left

 

[Moochienanu]

“So how do I get ahold of you?” She implored
“I’m here at the bar sometimes…” he trailed off
“I can’t come out tomorrow, what if we walked around some more tonight?
I don’t want this night to end yet” she asked.
“I don’t either, and a walk with you sounds perfect,” he answered.
So they did.

I'm still here, popping in and out to check on progress.

But, this is your story and you have the right to present this on your own schedule.

We will still be here.

Right here with you Mooch

 

[Moochienanu]

She knew she was falling for him,
But it felt so fast,
So she still kept her walls up -
She had a feeling he could break her.
He put his jacket around her as they walked
And she held his arm
He kissed her under a streetlight and she audibly sighed
“I need more of you.” He whispered into her hair as he held her
“That, you can have.” She answered into his chest


It was perfect.

 

[Moochienanu]

For several nights that week, she went back to the bar.
And there he was.
She would arrive after work, order her Diet Coke, and go sit with him,
Never even talking to anyone else.
They spoke about philosophy
And about her work
And about the books they read
And about the movies they watched,
And she felt herself pulled deeper into him.
Every night.
And every night, before they parted ways,
He would tell her,
“I need more of you.”
And she would give him more.
Until that night.

This passage gives me so many emotions....
These lines specifically...

"She had a feeling he could break her...."
(And yet when he said)
"I need more of you"...
(She went)

Sigh

Almost tears actually. Xo

Okay, as long as the pic doesn't mean "the end" (Sorry, I was forced to. Todger told me to)
