Well since I introduced Sparky to the blog 7 months ago I neglected to update the interactions between us. I apologize because I vowed to disclose the good, the bad, and the ugly. So here it is...Sparky's October visit had so much build up and anticipation for there to be a great change in our relationship, but it just did not happen. Whenever we were together we were always with his family and NEVER alone! How can the relationship progress if we don't actually date? I was just mad that he was all talk and no action. Why wouldn't he give ME or US just a chance??! We still talked casually but I had a feeling that he was starting to talk with his ex-girlfriend.
When Sparky came to visit in December we had not spoken in a month. My friend picked me up to go out and before hand texted me that he was coming with us. I thanked her for the heads up and we were completely cordial during our outing. Then to confirm what I was thinking he announced that he his EX would be taking him home. Later that week we were both at church and 30 minutes into the service I received a text from him, "I have been looking for you. I thought you were ditching church but I just saw you!" Why??!!! Why is he looking for me? Why is he texting me? I told him to work on his detective skills and he said, "We need to hang out." "Fat Chance!!" I thought still a bit angry.
Fast forward to February, Sparky and I haven't talked since December and I get a message from him, "I heard this...I heard that." Why does he check up on me? Why does he care? Two days later he messages again and we talk for an hour. Before I know what has happened I am doing it again...I am falling. I try to deny it and say that we are just good friends and it is good to catch up. He announces that he will be in town in a few weeks and that we should get together. Only this time I don't get my hopes up because I know better. When he messages me again the next day I begin to wonder what is going on??! We casually talk and then he says, "So there was something I wanted to ask you...would you be my date to my brother's wedding?"...I am SHOCKED!...flattered, excited, but still SHOCKED! Why does he need a date? It's a family wedding and he is the best man, so why does he need a date? With a million questions running through my mind I say Yes.
It's the weekend of the wedding, Sparky is back in town and wants to see me Thursday but, I am too tired. Then Friday night he invites me over and I cancel because of previous engagements and he says, "Just don't bail on me tomorrow!" The wedding was the first time that I saw him. I had bought the perfect flirty little black dress. When he spotted me across the field he did a double take and said he didn't recognize me because I looked so sexy -- Mission Accomplished!! The wedding was beautiful and romantic. He gave a moving best man speech, we visited with friends and his family, ate cake and danced the night away! As we slow danced the photographer came to take our picture and he held me even closer!! It was as if we were a couple once again. His Dad turned to me and said, "Will you just snatch him up already??!" I just looked at him and he said, "I know! I know! I am going to smack that boy upside his head!" We spent the rest of his time that he was in town together until it was time for him to leave for the airport. Another long embrace, another goodbye. When he landed back at home he messaged me to thank me and tell me what a great time he had with me at the wedding. Could things work out for me like the movie Made of Honor? Where the guy keeps asking her to be his date to all of his father's weddings and eventually realizes she is perfect for him!!
So here we are again...Are we really going to try for a round three? Is the third time really a charm??
