Hilde and Drummer

Two weeks after their first idle conversation of purple guitarpicks they surrended to a drunken kiss on a staircase. Hilde knew, that Drummer was married and knew of his Casanovaesque reputation, but after the few ciders at the movie, couple of drinks and cigarettes, the warning signs in her head sounded more like some distant whispers.

Hilde was amazed by the easiness, about the relaxation. Drummer drew hearts and wrote their names on Hilde's bare skin while she was laying on her stomach. When Hilde finally gave in to her senses and started to think, the horror of it made her end the relationship in just few weeks.

While she wrote him a letter to explain this she got a message from Dummer who wanted to move in with her. So the messaged sailed in the world of electronic communications, and for a while they both felt like shit.

They met once after those e-mails were sent. They had sushi for lunch, and Hilde noticed how nervous they both were. Drummer had some rash on his forehead, her hands were cold. Afterwards, for the sake of Valentine's Day, they exchanged meaningless gifts they both had bought in the hurry, and they've not met since.

Hilde And Engineer

They had their first date in October. At first he seemed to be very appealing yet cautios; in a few months Hilde was very irritated about it. In a bus, on her way home, Hilde was thinking about getting to like him. The last look he gave her had some puppy-like begging in it. It had always been too easy to touch Hilde's emotions with things like that.

They lived in different towns. That way it took their more time to get to know eachother.

Engineer smelled heavily of sweat. Different kinds of scents meant awful lot to Hilde, who thought that it was our natural smells that attracted us and made us choose a partner. Engineer didn't use a deodorant or any other scents either. That was bothering Hilde, who was too polite to say anything about it.

Because they saw eachoter so seldom they really never got profoundly intimate. The few incidents they did have made Hilde think a lot;  after having his own release he'd say "I'm Sorry". Later he used the word "vagina" twice.

Before Hilde knew how he felt about Engineer they decided to go on a trip together. By the time they went she was sure it wasn't going to work. In that strange city, on a bed of a hotelroom, Hilde told him how she felt about the relationship. He replied: "Well I guess we aren't compatible with eachoter"

They never saw eachother again once they got back home.
