Everything Will Be Ok

Well I was already going to be late for my dinner date, so I rushed out of my classroom and made sure I locked the door. I hurried to my car and hopped in. I was probably driving over the speed limit, but right now I didn’t care. All I cared about was getting to the restaurant on time.

I finally arrived at the place we planned to meet at with only 2 minutes to spare. I adjusted my red tie and combed back my black, greasy hair. Feeling confident with my appearance, I entered the low-lit restaurant. “Reservation for two please.”I smiled politely.”Name?”The young waitress asked.”Gerard Way.”I replied.”Ah yes. Right this way, Mr. Way.”I followed her to a booth for two.”Will this be ok?”I stroked my hand through my hair.”Yes this is just fine, thanks.”I say as she walks off.

I glance back at my watch to see that it is 6:00, a half hour after she said she would be here. Maybe she is just running late because of traffic. I start to become nervous and my hands begin to shake. What if she saw me and ran off because she realized that she was making huge mistake? Or what if she thinks I’m pathetic and changed her mind on meeting me here. All these thoughts continued to go around in my head.

“Are you sure you don’t want to order anything yet?” I shook my head.”No my date still hasn’t arrived.”She gave me a sympathetic look, probably knowing she wouldn’t arrive at all. To be honest I don’t blame her if she doesn’t show up. I mean who would want to date a lonely loser like me?

I look down at my phone to see if I had received any messages from her. But of course there weren’t any. The least she could do was call me or text me saying that she was busy or wasn’t coming. I looked back at my watch for probably the tenth time tonight to see it was 6:45.Yep, my doubts were correct. There was no way she was coming now. Ugh, I am just so angry at myself right now. Why am I so naive and stupid? My kind waitress approaches me for like the fifth time.”Are you sure you don’t want anything sir? Some soup, a salad, maybe even a drink?”I felt a bit of a smirk creep onto my face when she said that. “Umm well since you’re asking…I’ll have your finest bottle of vodka.”I knew I was probably going to regret the upcoming events that were going to take place.”Coming right up!”She exclaimed with her cute, little high- pitched voice. After a few minute wait, she returned with my order. And at that very moment I did something I hadn’t done in many years. I drank.
