The Bus Tales #1 : The Eye Game

Reading can be sexy, especially for me since I don't read much. So, whenever I see a guy reading a book, it's like hmm he's intelligent, especially if he looks like the type who don't really read books. That is not my intention but I was reading a book on a bus back from work last night and I think a book tells a lot about a person. My book was about a london call girl so it says in pink glitter fonts "THE STORY OF A LONDON CALL GIRL".. or was it the diary? But, for some reason three guys sat around me in the bus.

Now, it's not like the seats around me were the ONLY options and they could've just sat anywhere and for once I was kinda not scared to make eye contact with them. I looked at them and we gave each other the 'look'. There was this crosseyed cutie who was sitting next to me, a blond at the back and an exotic italian in front of me. Now, the crosseye kept looking at me.. but then again, it can also be his crosseyedness.

Halfway through the trip, I got bored and I got rid of my ipod cos I felt a bit antisocial and I started to stop reading as well. I'm not sure but at times, people do chuck convos on buses in Australia but three of them were such pansies. So, after this, I now took my phone and started talking just to indicate that despite the fact that I do not look local, I can speak english. Now that didn't work either. I got tired of trying and bored so I looked around and at the front of the bus was Mikey square. (Ok, he's like a bro figure friend to me and his bf's also called Mikey just like his name)

So, he waved andI waved back and the exotic did a half wave apparently which I didn't see but Mikey called me on the phone to tell me that and we were laughing. It was great fun. The blond left while this was happening and later, Mr crosseye left. But the most interesting thing was the fact that he was looking at me from outside as he walked. I didn't miss out either. I stared at him like an asian's first trip to Australia. He lives only one stop away from my bus stop. What are the odds of not finding him on gaydar or manhunt unless he IS straight and was just crosseyed to have me thinking he was looking at me... *le sigh*

When I got off, Mikey square got off too and we were laughing and talking and he mentioned that it was the exotic italian dude who chucked a half wave and I looked back at the bus and he was looking at us as well and I chucked a 'I am smiling but not obvious enough to make you think I'm smiling at you' face. He chucked back a 'Oh my god , they're looking at me.. must be my half wave' face. Then I looked away..

Didn't get any boys off the bus. could've been a funnier story if I did but ah well, the eye game seems fun enough and I end up talking to Mikey square anyways, who are both always good to bump into...
