This time, last year:
“Come on and give it up, Mikey. It’s not like anyone is gonna care or anything. It’s not like you are a girl or anything, or are you?”
“You know what, Jackie, I’ve had just about enough out of you. Just shut it.”
Mikey was the salt of the earth when it came to women, but even he had his limits. Jackie just didn’t understand he wasn’t going down that road with anyone. And he certainly had fewer words to explain why that wouldn’t make him seem like a total goof.
“Excuse me? Do you know who you are talking to? I’ve got like five brothers, two of them who are Teamsters, who could beat the crap out of you for talking to me like that. What the Hell is wrong with you anyway? Twenty-four year old virgin – who’d you think you’d be kidding with that line, huh?”
“Oh yeah, how would they like it if I told them why?” Ok, that line of defense could go either way. If anyone told him that Maggie was being an uber witch, in an effort to feel better about not being the one to take their virginity, he’d probably deck them as well. They had only gone on three dates, so what was she expecting from him anyway?
A long moment of silence passes between them as they just sit on a bench in a park that overlooked the seaboard. Michael didn’t look over to her when he spoke next.
“I think that we may be better off as friends, Jackie.” It wasn’t the slickest of words, but at least this way, she wouldn’t feel tooooo brushed off and disgusted for being rejected.
“You took the words right out of my mouth, Michael,” Jackie let out in a huff as she got up and walked away. She’d get over it …maybe …whatever.
Michael just let her leave. She really wasn’t all that bad – none of his ex's were. No, it wasn’t them, it was him – he was sure of that fact.
