Let's not play these games

The last few weeks have been filled with trepidation, longing, annoyance and unlimited patience. He was busy with his life and I was as well, but still wanted him to surprise me, seduce me and at least date me.

We met last night and he showed the same delicate touch as before. At the start of the night His lips brushed mine tenderly and his eyes, flashed wanting me, like a reflection of mine. But there was the game play that we had to contend with before we got to our destination.

He had already marked his territory via twitter a few days before when a guy flirted with me. This amused me. But what was more amusing was when said guy joined our group of friends for a night out. He was very close whenever, I was talking to guy.

Unfortunately, I had to contend with the green eyed monster in me when a notorious woman tried to make her moves on him. I try to act nonchalant with women hitting on men I date as I know I always seem to date the handsome casanovas in this world, but this woman had to be stopped. My explosion was fast and blunt but it had the desired effect. He moved next to me at the bar and kissed me. It is funny how that one gentle peck could set warning bells to others and reassure me of his commitment to me (for that night at least).

But why did we have to do this game play. Why did we feel we had to flirt with others? Was it to show we didn't need or want each other? The time we spent with them could have been spent with each other chatting, touching and exploring instead. We had already established I was spending the night with him and I even had my toothbrush in my bag! Why couldn't we enjoy those precious moments together?

Will these games continue and for how long? He has said he wants to see me again in two days time. I don't trust him after the last two times of asking me out then cancelling on me, so I am not putting my hopes up but I know I will be daydreaming nonetheless.

The other issue is now that I'm falling for him. His seductive charm and touch is grabbing a hold of me and not letting go. I have a feeling I am seducing him as well, but I don't think it is as powerful as his.

I am pessimistic this won't last but I should enjoy it while it does, games or no games.
