<em>So this is the girl I am after.</em>He raises an eyebrow,<em>"It is your birthday and yet none of the other guys have bought you a drink? Shame on their manners."</em>He noted the numbers and smiled a little more,<em>"Happy Birthday from me then."</em>His green eyes once again took her in as she glanced at her friends.<em>"Why would they be egging you on?</em><strong>Why did it have to be her birthday of all days. With her friends around this will be much harder.</strong>He glanced at her friends before he replied to her question,<em>"My name is John. May I know the name of a beauty such as yourself?"</em>He flirts with her in their conversation. Any sane man would flirt with her after all. He could only hope there were not people from elsewhere. That knew him from before his four years off.<strong>I can only hope I am entirely off their radar.</strong>
