“I’ll tell you what. You pick a date for me to fly over there, any date you like, and you can try it out while I’m there. I can even stay at a hotel if you don’t feel comfortable having me at your place. If you decide this lifestyle’s not for you, then I’ll respect that, and we can just go back to being friends. That sound okay to you?”
Wow, we’d actually meet in person. That’d be the best part of Gary flying over here. Would we get along just as great as we did online? Would we still connect? Would there be any physical chemistry? The fact that he was willing to stay at a hotel made me feel more comfortable since I wasn’t sure if I’d be ready to have him stay at my place for however long he’d be in Michigan.
I smiled harder and nodded. “Okay. I think that can work, yeah.”
Gary’s smile grew, much to my surprise, and it looked like he was tracing something on the screen. “I just traced your lips. I’d like to know what they feel like on mine and what they taste like.”
