He listened the the voice mail from Geoff twice before he picked up his phone to call the man back. Dinner. An official dinner. With Geoff.
He'd spent years avoiding fancy dinners. Even with Stacy. He'd always come up with an excuse at the last minute, because, well because he didn't want to be bothered, mostly. Because dinners were not his thing, and he had a reputation, so he played the part of the jerk and backed out at the last minute. After he'd agreed to go.
He wouldn't do that to Geoff. He'd go because Geoff asked him to go, and because he wanted to go. With Geoff.
He would have liked to go in o town, to Geoff's shop and surprise him by accepting the invitation in person, but given the weather he didn't think he should risk the walk. He sighed and dialed Geoff's number.
