Colm wouldn’t call himself a serial romantic. Sure, he’s dated here and there with his last breakup even ending on good terms! But, even Janelle is pushing him back into the dating pool. So, that’s how Colm found himself at the villain bar, nursing a beer, boredly scanning for anyone that catches his interest.

He began zoning out when he felt someone brush up against him. It wasn’t out of the ordinary for someone to miss him and almost trample his smaller stature. So, Colm looked up and with all the anger of an Irishman shouted. “Watch where you’re fuckin’ going, you piece of shite!”

It wasn’t until the person looked down somewhat apologetically did Colm get a decent look a the person’s face.. and Jeysus weren’t they lovely. Colm grinned at the taller person and waved. “Sorry ‘bout that, lad. How about I buy you a pint?” The short man asked, already waving the bartender down.
