Yesterday I had a computer/xray machine unit to install into a vets surgery. So off I set with my side kick dum dum. We are shown in by one of the ladies (nurse I think). Efficent is my middle name (by deed poll) so I get straight into it. The easy job turned into a hard job. The wall was bowed and the unit was too big. So my handy planeer and jig saw got good workouts. A little bit off here, alot of there. Second attempt. not bad a little more off here I'm thinking. I turned.
"Hello there, hows it going?" she asks
"Good thanks" I reply.
"I just need to get something" she's pointing at the shelf, at the back of the room.
"no worries" I say as I watch her avoid my tools to collect whatever it was she's collecting. Hmmm cute I think to myself.
Back to work, I get dum dum to help take the unit outside for what I'm hoping is the final adjustment. Walking back in with the unit. Yours truely walking backwards holding one end of the unit, because dum dum has not yet learned how to turn his head to see where he is going while walking backwards.
I felt a touch on the small of my back.
"Opps sorry" she says as she brushes past me. I watch her wander down the corridor.
"Shes hot" says dum dum
"shut your cakehole dum dum."
Unit in place. Fits well. I look side ways. There she is with the nurse who let us in.
"excuse me can you put a hole in that wall? So that we can poke this cable through we're for ever tripping over it" asks the nurse.
"No problemo...it'll cost you a cuppa" **Cheeky Grin**
Back into it, Fix unit too the wall, drink cuppa, drill hole. Just need to adjust doors on unit. There is a commotion. She's there holding a plastic container. The nurse has collected a small bird cage. In the container is a Blue Tongue Lizard which has come off second best to a whipper snipper. She grabs the lizard my the neck and the tail. She inspects the wound. "Poor little guy...your going to be fine. Look it's only a flesh wound. Antibiotics and he'll be fine." she tells the nurse. Intrigued I make my way over. The lizard sees me and hisses. She laughs "you seem like such a nice guy too hehehe"
"He don't think so" I reply smiling. "Can I have a look" She holds the lizard to me so that I can look closer. Princess will be so jealous I'm thinking. I hold the cage open as she puts the lizard into it. Our hands brush.
WHAMMMMO
I find myself looking at her eyes, They are so dark. Shes looking at me smiling. I know I'm smiling too. We just look at each other. "I'd er better erm....put him away" she says.
I don't say anything, I just get out of her way. I watch her walk away. I check out her arse. Nice :)...she suddenly turns looks me right in the eys smiles and turns away and disappears. D'OH....busted I'm thinking. I look over at dum dum who is grinning like a cheshire cat. "Lets pack up then dum dum" as we put the tools away.
"She liked you" says dum dum
"What?"
"The vet....she likes you. Keeps looking at you"
"Dum dum we were talking about the lizard"
"Not at the end you weren't....and she has checked you out lots while you were fixing the unit to the wall"
"Whatever dum dum"
We pack everything away. I check with the nurse to make sure everything is ok. Another vet checks out our work. He's happy. I turn to leave. Dum dum is already in the truck waiting. I'm just about to walk out the door. I feel like I've forgotten something. I double check the unit. Nope all good. I'm walking out. There she is again.
"I'm all finished....thanks for letting me look at the lizard'
"No worries....nice to meet you" she extends her hand.
WHIZ.....BANG.....POP.....SIZZLE
My heart is fluttering, I have butterflies.......WHAT THE FUCK!!!!
Her eyes.....wow look at the eyes, her face, her.....stop it. We are stuck there again looking at each other smiling. I suddenly realise we're still holding hands not shaking just holding. Our hands fly apart.
"s s s see you around" I say.
"Yes.....have a good one" she says.
I walk out the door. I smack myself on the forehead. "See you around" whatever.
Now all I have done is think about her. Today while driving to work I kept look out for an injured animal. All I saw was road kill. Where's all the injured wildlife when you need it. All day I've been trying to find a reason to go back. A good reason that'll not make me look like some stalker. Dum dum mentioned her at work today. "She so wanted you" he joked.
"Don't be daft dum dum"
"I'm telling yer...you shoulda asked her out...she was inta ya"
We hardly talked. I have heard talk before about a spark. I haven't felt it till now. As soon as I think of her, my heart skips a beat, I get butterflies. I even considered warming some roadkill in a microwave to make it look like it was alive when I found it. Just so I would have a reason to see her. Too talk to her again. To say more than "see ya around"
Has Superbozo fallen for someone? Will she ever know?
