Visiting friends and such.

So, last week i went up to citrus wednesday night so me and Emily could pick our friend Graham up from the airport thursday together. He's moving back to the FL and we were super excited! That night a couple people stopped by to hang out with us to drink a little, it was a good time. Thursday morning i found out we didn't have to pick him up until 11:30 pm so we just hung out a bit and i took Emily grocery shopping for her new house. That night while Emily was making dinner her boyfriends brother, who just got out of jail a week prior and i've never met, stopped by with one of his friends. He immediately walked over to where i was sitting and introduced himself, as did his friend. I figured they were being polite seeing as i had never met them and they wanted to make a good impression. Throughout the hour and a half they were there before we left for the airport, i kept catching my friends boyfriends brother looking at me. While he was outside smoking, talking to his friend in another room and occasionally kept sitting next to me at the table but i didn't think anything of it, i just thought maybe he was just looking because he didn't know me or anything or i looked weird. We quickly scarfed down some taco's she made and smoked a couple cigarettes before heading out, he had told us to drive safe and said goodbye multiple times before we closed the door. The drive to the airport was long and boring, but we had some good music to pump us up. By the time we got to the airport we were about half an hour early. Emily called her boyfriend to let him know we made it, after a minute on the phone she started giggling and said goodbye and looked at me and goes "well, i guess Dustin left you a note when he left our house tonight." I didn't know how to react, i kind of smirked and thought to myself "i knew something weird like this was gonna happen.". She said her boyfriend told her it said something about how i was going to fall in love with him and me and her busted out laughing. She then told me she kind of knew he probably wanted to get into my pants because apparently he doesn't normally introduce himself that quickly. We scooted closer to Grahams airline arrival area and we got him into the car and on the way home. I drove about 10mph over almost the entire way back so we made pretty good time. We got back and Emily rushed into the room i was staying in and i heard her ask "is this the note?" Her boyfriend said "yea, i guess so..." She walked out of the room into the living room while reading it laughing. After she read it she said "it doesn't say anything about you falling in love with him, but it's a lot better than i thought it was gonna be." I read it slowly to myself, while her and Graham crowded around me waiting to see my reaction. It read;
"Dear pretty girl Amanda,
I did not get enough time to talk to you but i will be back, i hope you stay comfortable and have a nice time till my return. I would like to know all about you, so take care and sleep well.
- Dustin :)

PS You are too cute for words."

I started laughing because i didn't know what else to do and then graham took it out of my hands and then he set it down and Emily's boyfriend read it. They started joking around and it made me feel a little awkward. I mean, come on, i'm so used to guys just being like "Hey, you look cool want to go hangout?" But i have to admit, even though i know what it all means, it's definitely a nice change. The next night we had Graham's coming home dinner. It was some awesome cheesy food. Some friends stopped by and we drank a little. Dustin stopped by with some people and he walked out into the back room where most of us were and everyone hugged him while i sat against the wall. He walked over to me and asked how the drive was and asked if i needed a drink or anything. After about five minutes i went inside to make another drink and sit down and he asked me what i thought of the note, i didn't really know what to say so i guess i just smiled and he said he thought it would make me smile. His friends who were waiting on him to go to a party were telling him to hurry up but he kept saying he wanted to hangout a little. He then asked me how long i was gonna be in town for and how often i come to visit and i told him whenever i can, really. He told me if he didn't see me the next night that he will the next time i come up there. I just smiled and nodded, i could feel myself starting to feel flattered just because of how polite he was being to me every time he's talked to me. Let me tell you, it's pretty damn nice. I left citrus sunday morning after driving Emily to work, and it was windy as fuck. I made it home at a good time and some weird people were here. I just kind of stayed in my room. Yesterday i woke up to a message on facebook from Dustin, once again addressing me as "pretty girl Amanda" saying i should come back soon and to be good and stay safe and that he'll be thinking of me. I chuckled and told Emily about it. She told me the night before that they all went to a bonfire and i guess he went up to her and asked her how often i come up there and told her he really thinks i'm cute. Made me blush a little. I mean seriously though, i think i'm ok looking sometimes but i barely know this guy and he's practically gushing about me. It's weird, isn't it? It does make me feel good about myself, so i guess it's good. This shit's just really unexpected, but i should be used to unexpected things because that's all that ever happens anymore. I'm taking what i can get.
