Hi all pls check out my story. I have added a little preview... also follow me on insta at jomuller.author to see reels depicted from the novel.
"Do you play darts?" I ask, noticing she was looking for a few good seconds in that direction, when we were talking at the bar.
"I would, if I knew how to!" She replies, and her response could not get any better.
"Well lucky you for meeting me tonight. I'll teach you!" I say, while she gives me one of those sweet smiles of hers. She pulls out her purse to pay for her drink and I intercept her hand "I've got this! Do you want another drink?" I ask, and she replies "Actually I was looking at those hot cheese pretzels earlier, they smell delicious!"
"And they taste delicious!" I reply and put an order through with Logan, the greatest chef this town has ever had. We both head to the darts playing area and occupy a table that has just been cleared.
"Are you a good player?" She asks, her smile looking like its just going to stay on for the rest of the night. I'll make sure of that. "I am fairly ok at it!" I respond while stretching my hand to collect a few darts from the tray.
"So how do you do this?"
"Well there are several ways to play. What do you want to learn?"
"The basics!"
I go on and explain the rules of the game and prepare to make a throw, showing her how to do it. I throw the dart and hit the line of the bullseye, feeling quite pleased with my self I turn to her and say.
"Don't feel intimidated, by my throw, I've always had steady hands!" I extend a dart to her, while she lets out a soft giddy chuckle and steps closer to me. Her proximity is making my blood boil. Emily picks the dart and our fingers touch for a fleeting second. I feel like I've been electrocuted.
Emily swivels on her heals throwing her dart in a fast, unprepared move. Well I shouldn't say unprepared because she hits the bullseye and leaves me instantly starstruck.
