love never walks alone

chapter two

"Come on, ring, ring, ring" I was sitting by the phone almost begging it to ring, "please ring", I had been sitting there for over and hour waiting for Bryan to call. "What are you waiting for?" asked Keely, (We shared a flat together). "I’m just waiting for a call from work." I replied, "Well I have seen you waiting for calls before, and you don’t normally sit by the phone asking it to ring. Are you sure you aren’t waiting for a lad to call?"…"Well, ok, yes, I met him today, you know that band that I interviewed, but that is all that I am saying". The phone rang, I anticipatingly let it ring twice before asking Keely to answer it. "Hello" she said. "Hi, can I speak to Rav please", said this "amazing Irish voice" on the other end of the line. "I’ll just get her for you", "Rav", she called. "A sexy sounding Irish guy is on the phone for you". "Shhh" I mumbled as I walked towards the phone and giving her a glare look, "you wait!".

I took hold of the phone and started to speak, "Hello, this is Rav", "Hi Rav, it's Bryan from this morning", "Oh hello," I said, trying to act surprised at the fact that he’d rang"…. We spoke for a while, we almost instantly hit it off, and talked about everything, I felt so relaxed talking to him, about anything and everything. We had quite a lot in common. I was shaking like a leaf as we were talking though; in my head I was wondering if this was going to lead anywhere. We both had jobs that didn’t allow us too much time to socialise, but then what was I thinking, we were only talking! He hadn’t even asked me out, and I wasn’t going to ask him, I hadn’t been in a relationship for two years because of my career, it was almost as if I was losing it!

As the conversation went on, Bryan told me how it would be good if I help out with their press information, I told him that I would. But I would like to clear it with Louis and Keely first; "I don’t think there will be a problem Bryan, I do most of the Boyzone stuff for them too, although Keely might have other ideas". I sneaked in, he asked who Keely was, I told him "At work she’s my boss, and at home she’s a mate." "Oh I see," he said. Not sounding too convinced at what was going on. The conversation was long, and time was flying, Bryan finally ended and told me that he had to go, cos they were leaving to do their first video shoot the next day, he invited me along, and I agreed. He asked if I needed a lift, "no", I replied, "I’ll drive down, it isn’t too far," I was nervous about seeing him alone, so I asked if it was ok to bring a mate along "sure" he said. It looked as though Keely and me were off on an adventure.
