It was crazy, I loved him but I knew this guy was what I wanted.
Strong, manly & a challenge.
I sat at the bar beside my MIL as she ordered us another two drinks.
Her nephew came over to us, slurring on his words.
"Who wants another drink?" He yelled, slinging his arm around her shoulder.
"I think you should go home Pete." She laughed, grabbing his beer off him.
"I'll go home if she comes with me." He whispered and she shook her head.
"This is jakes girlfriend."
"Cousin jake, where's he tonight?"
"At a hut fishing, so I've brought her out with me."
"Well you wanna dance?"
I shrugged and got up from my seat, grabbing his hand as he led us to the dance floor of the pub.
I knew none of his friends.
He was 6 years older than me.
We began dancing and he jumped around like a crazy drunk.
I laughed and a girl walked over to us.
"Peter, I'm taking you home." She said, in a stern voice.
"Cmon Chlo, leave me for a little bit."
She rolled her eyes and dragged him away, and I sat back down at the table.
We continued joking, and people would come over and talk to us when he came back.
"I thought Chloe was taking you home."
"No, she left, mums gonna come get me later."
He bought some more drinks for us both and I threw mine back.
"Hey! She'll fit into the family well." Peter laughed and I smiled, looking at my MIL.
He introduced us to some of his mates and as we were leaving, he come to my window and laughed.
"Don't hurt my cousin."
I smiled and we left.
Wow.
