Ok, after giving it a lot of thought- and I mean we’re talking a LOT of thought, Jake and I decided that we were seriously overdue for a single guy’s night out on the town. So, I met him over at his house this past Friday night, and we headed up to Port Angeles. I had to admit to him that I was kinda glad that it was just me and him going out. I mean, he is the only other person in the world that could possibly understand the way I have been feeling lately. The whole “I imprinted on someone way younger than me and its not a romantic imprint, but a big brother protective imprint” thing. Yeah, that 
The thing that is also in the back of your head everyday telling you that no one is ever going to be as important to you as that one person, and yet you can’t tie yourself down for years and years, not knowing what the future will hold. Who knows who Nessa and Claire will fall in love with one day. Just because we imprinted on them, doesn’t mean they will love us “that way” one day, right.
So, long story short, we got there, walked on the waterfront a little, really looking at the girls. Thats something I don’t think neither of us ever do. I mean, we are guys- so of course you notice that girl over there has a nice smile or that one over there has great legs or wow look at that ones.. well.. we notice stuff. (Hee Hee) But you never think of pursuing anything at all. But that night, we left all that behind us in La Push and just decided to let loose. We cruised around for a little while, and I mentioned that I like brown eyes. Then Jake looked in this one little bar and saw a girl dancing in there with her friend. She has beautiful brown eyes. 
He thought her friend was hot. We looked at each other for a second and then walked on in there, and started dancing. It was easier than I thought it would be. I was freaking out the whole time on the inside, of course, but on the outside.. I was a BAMFW and I let that lead me. I introduced myself and we danced a little. I went to get something to drink and she came too. We sat down and talked for a little while. She was from Seattle and in school for fashion. She came across as a little shy. She seemed nice and the whole fashion school thing screamed “out of my league”. But I was just there to have fun and forget about work. I think she was there for the same reason.
Jake had been out there dancing with her friend in the red shirt for a long time, and programmed her number in his phone before coming over to tell me we needed to head back home. I had forgotten that we both had to patrol that night. Crap. I was just starting to relax a little and have fun. I felt bad taking off like that, but I’m sure some other guy jumped at the chance to talk to her as soon as I got up. She was really pretty. So, I left with Jake. Didn’t even ask for the number. I didn’t think I had much of a chance really. I mean, you should have seen the way this girl was dressed. It was really fun while it lasted though. I think after working so hard all the time. I deserved a little fun. Maybe me and Jake will go out and do it again sometime.
