Ok, I'm happy! H and I just met for our first non-business meeting up. On Monday we talked about me needing to give him a copy of our water bill so I said I would drop it round to his office one lunchtime. I took a bit of a risk and said, 'in fact, as we aren't going out tonight shall we have lunch, it'd be good to catch up'. He said yes, looked at his diary and said he was pretty busy but could do Wednesday, he'd been planning to work from home but could come in and find a quiet office somewhere. I just said 'see how it goes and let me know'.
I totally wasn't expecting it to happen as before he left I said text me about Wednesday and he already seemed to have forgotten.
Anyway, I forgot till this morning and then ended up getting in a right tizzy about what to do if he didn't text (cheeseless tunnel, cheeseless tunnel I kept repeating to myself and managed to calm down!). Anyway, at 11.30 he texted and asked if we were still meeting up and we arranged it.
We met at a lovely cup cake bakery that I suggested in South Kensington and had a huge piece of cake each and a really nice chat about general stuff, some reminiscing, moaning about work and lots of laughing. I wore a 180 summer skirt and top as it is a gorgeous day here today. I had planned to compliment him but he was dressed down, and it would have been a false compliment - he wasn't even wearing new stuff it was from when we were together. Weird seeing him sitting opposite me in a cardigan I bought him.
Anyway we got on different tube trains but his left first so I waved and he waved back as it pulled away.
I am happy. Now, I will leave chill and get on with my picnic till the next time. He did say see you soon but I think I will text him good luck tomorrow as he has a job interview.
