Chapter 11

Warm heat pumped onto her face from a heater above the entrance, and the lifeless carpet felt hard beneath her feet, but other than that she was pleasantly surprised. The place had some character; there were low ceilings and beams, and even a fire blazing in the hearth. She spotted a small TV in a back room where there was a game playing, a few men drinking beer at tables, but the sporty atmosphere did not take over the whole place. There were a few older men sitting at the bar drinking, and most of the tables were filled with people eating. She wondered what day it was; was it the weekend? It certainly seemed surprisingly busy for a weekday.

Sarah followed Daniel to the bar. A young woman was pouring a drink for one of the older men. When she looked up at Daniel Sarah saw the girls’ face heat, and she felt a surge of jealousy mixed with a sense of pride. She hated it when other women noticed Daniel as it made her feel insecure – what if he chose some other girl over her? And she hated herself for hating it, how ridiculous was it to doubt him? He had never given her reason too.

Sarah turned and spotted a vacant table. She decided to ignore her stupid possessiveness and leave Daniel to it, so she ambled across the room and took an empty seat. There was a t-light candle burning in a small glass in the center of the dark wood table which was scattered with beer mats advertising brands she was unfamiliar with. Cheesy radio music played in the background, but there was no dance floor. She surmised it would be hard to get anyone to leave with them without being noticed, it was just not busy enough. Maybe later she thought, after all; darkness had not fallen long ago.

She fiddled with one of the beer mats until a movement caught her eye. She looked up and saw Daniel approaching. This time it was her who was blushing. She had not exactly forgotten how good looking he was, yet she was getting used to him. It was not until they were in public, and she saw him alongside other people, that she realized just how stunning he was; every aspect of his looks was perfect – but he was not too perfect as he still had a sense of ruggedness and his eyes sparkled with life and depth. She could not look away.

As he sat down opposite her he pushed a large glass of red wine into her hand, and she automatically raised it to her lips, still captivated by Daniel’s eyes. The wine was rich and fruity, with a slightly sour tang which brought her back to herself and she realized Daniel was grinning at her in amusement. She smiled self-consciously and took another sip.

‘Thanks for the drink,’ she muttered, her cheeks now burning as Daniel continued to smile.

She gave him a sharp kick under the table when he started to creep her out with his incessant amusement at her expense.
