Rob came round the other day and we actually had a conversation face to face (yes, I know, hard to believe). When he talks to me he sort of tilts his head to the side slightly and smiles. He always smiles. Like a happy little smile. And his eyebrows always raise up and down sort of randomly, as if they were on bouncy castles. I'm not a body language expert but its got to mean something.
Anyway, the conversation was drawing to a natural close (with my brother getting impatient upstairs, waiting for Rob to join him) and then Rob did that thing (you know, when you're about to walk away but then remember something that you were going to tell someone) and he told me that he had played down the bar (I'm going to call it "the bar" cos I don't want to name it - paranoid, I know) that I had sung at last year. I haven't actually been down there since last year (which is shocking since it's July already) but apparently Rob's friend had taken him there and he'd played guitar on the stage.
Is this fate? What are the chances of his friend dragging him down to the same bar that I go to (well, use to go to)? There are millions of bars where I live, so the odds are pretty low.
Anyway, I was thinking of saying to Rob "why don't you come down to the bar on Tuesday" because that's the day that I go down with my friend. My brother wouldn't be there and it would be prime alone-with-Rob time. I think it's a brilliant opportunity but I'm a bit scared to take it. To be honest I hate going to that bar. It's full of drunks and druggies and I'm not even meant to be in there because I'm too young. So if I went there then it would only be because I wanted to see Rob. But Rob is shy so he might not even talk to me much. He might not even turn up and it would have all been for nothing. I don't know what to do. If we met at the bar then my friend would be there and she'd probably announce to everyone that I fancied Rob or something.
I need help, what shall I do??
