PART II

Six years later

10. Celebrating

I was finished graduating from law school in a week. All my tests were done, and my roommate Michonne insisted we go out for drinks with a group of friends. Somehow, I did not feel like celebrating. My mind and my hear were still focused on Shane. Six years later and I still regret canceling the wedding. Move on, I told myself.

"You look hot tonight,"Michonne said when I came out in a little black dress.

"Thank you. It's you dress. I don't normally wear things like this, but I thought my church dress would look out-of-place in at a bar," I said unsure if I should even go.

"Keep the dress. After seeing it how could it looks you I don't think I could wear it again," She smiled.

"Thank you," I said as we headed to the club.

I sat at the table watching everyone dance and have a good time. I looked down at my cell phone. Maybe I could call Shane's house. If they still had a house phone maybe his mom would give me his cell. No, I am sure he has moved on by now. He might be even married, I thought sadly. Suddenly I saw a man across the bar staring at me. He was at least fifteen years older than me, but he was very sexy. I smiled at him little and Michonne walked over.

"That guy in the brown suit is checking you out," She smiled.

"I know. You don't think he'll come over here do you?"

"Who?" The stranger with the light brown eyes said as walked over to me.

"You," I said looking into his eyes.

"Well, here I am. I like to buy you a drink," He offered.

"I don't really drink a lot of alcohol. I kind of feel out-of-place at a bar to tell the truth," I said looking at Michonne.

"Go have a drink with him," Michonne encouraged me.

"One drink," I said looking up at him.

"That's better than nothing," He smirked.

"I am Andrea Harrison by the way," I said as he took my hand.

"Philip Blake," he smiled again.

"Philip do you like cheeseburgers?"

"I love them. Why?"

"What do you say we leave this place, and go get one?"

"Then I can take you home with me?" He whispered in my ear.

"Maybe," I said getting caught up with how attractive this older stranger was. I could not stop staring at his light brown eyes, dark blonde hair, and angel face. I felt like I was put under a spell. I had never seen someone so sexy. Well, besides Shane.

"That's not a no," He said taking my hand.
