This is how it went down.


I had just gotten off the phone with Muse2nopharoh, who had been panting pretty heaviliy on the phone, and due to the fact that I was sitting inside of a Borders bookstore, I wasn’t able to hear the words between her panting very well. So I let her go, and went to sit down to read a couple of books that I have selected.
I sat down at the spot I had chosen a couple of weeks ago, in a little nook in the bookstore, with shelves of reference books on language and writing on either side, and in the middle two trendy lazy-boy style black chairs facing each other, separated only by a small, coffee table.
Across from me sat him . Yes him! The guy I had seen a couple of weeks ago. People, this is the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen. I don’t mean beautiful in the boring ass Brad Pitt/Tyson Beckford flawless way, but beautiful in the quirky Eric Torkells kind of way. Here’s his pictures in case any of you ho’s don’t know who Eric Torkells is http://www.outprofessiona...l,Eric.jpg
Anyways, there he was, sitting across from me. The same guy who chose to sit across from me a few weeks back when I managed to find time to steal way to the bookstore for lunch. His hair was salt-n-pepper grey, his eyes, deep grey in color, his brows an intelligent curve of hotness, his lips thin but still pouty and generous looking, and his skin slightly weathered from what may be acne scars. He resembled a Tommy Lee Jones/Josh Hartnett clone, smoothed out in Latino caramel with a more intelligent look to him.
I’m sorry to wax homosexual on you guys yet again, but I simply could not take my eyes off of him. Something drew me to him like a komodo dragon hunting down it's recently bitten and bleeding prey, like a python devouring a recently strangled rabbit, or like Larry Craig at a public toilet—I simply was drawn to this motherfucker.
A true test of my attraction to him came in the form of some noisey ass lady looking for books on Arabic, walking past both of us and going up the back shelf (behind this guy’s head). I looked up and noticed she had a big ‘ol Jay-Lo booty (goddamit, I love Jay-lo ass, ok? I love it), but her ass had absolutely no power over me. No, my virginal org hotties, it did NOTHING to me. All I could do was glance at the silver haired head just to the right of her ass—the head of this guy.
On occasion as I was pretending to read my book (I lost all concentration at this point), he would look up and I’d catch him staring at me—And folks I KNOW it wasn’t my stellar haircut, as it was barely rockin’ today. No my virginal org hotties, he was looking at my pouty fool lips, the intelligent curve of my eyebrows, and the big ass nose that anchors my entire face—yes, I’m sure it wasn’t just projection my ho’s. I’m sure of it!

Anyways, I was interrupted by work , so I had to leave, but before I did, we talked only shortly as he offered to move some of his schoolwork aside for me to place my Ice Soy Decaf Carmel Latte’. He has a little accent that I think is Venezuelan cause he sounds like my old classmate Javier But it came to nothing really. I left to go dial into work and straighten some bullshit out, and he probably sat there at Borders just shining like the Adonis motherfucker that he is, whispering calculus formulas to himself with that accent
But I really didn’t know what to think at that point. Why was I so drawn to this gorgeous person, who in realty isn’t a supermodel? It wasn’t looks persay that cause this reaction. Was it just a hormonal thing? What? What?
Have you virginal org hotties, ever experienced instant attraction to someone who isn’t necessarily your “ideal” of beauty and sexiness? But for some reason, was instantly attracted anyways?

Lawd, this is so gay. I need to go watch football or some shit. I tell you what though. I’ll be visiting Borders more often now.

Yes, it has happened to me and I ended up dating him for about a year. I'm usually into Hispanic guys.Dark hair, dark eyes, tan skin, you know . . . . but in my senior year of high school, I ended up sitting next to this this guy. He had a huge, beautiful smile, blue eyes, black hair,really tall, at least standing next to me ,and he was like this All-American type of dude. Oh lawd, he was sooooo cute
