Extend the Story - Add a Room

Alex keeps a distance for a while, but soon forgets his discomfort when you take him to a rundown pub and greet the bar tender by name. A few of the locals wave at you and gaze curiously at Alex. Quickly however their eyes go back to the screen where a few players are practicing for the World Cup.

"Football is huge over here you know?" You say casually as you sit in a corner booth.

The bar maid, a large breasted girl with a penchant for flirting with young gay princes came to take their orders. She had a big smile, and a large platter to match. You glance curiously at Alex wondering if he will cop a peek at her chest, but you are pleased and assured when he seems completely oblivious. His eyes are glued to the screen. You've studied American culture enough to know this is a manly pastime to avoid all else except the television screen when Sports are on. A loud roar fills the room and you regally take the saltshaker from it's place in the corner and roll it quietly enough to go unnoticed by the others. You just want to show off your long fingers after all.

Alex ignores you to your frustration and continues watching the game.
