Yardies a home and a farrin (Part 21)

[DedicatedWife 4]

Well here is the story of how Ash met Den or Den met Ash!!!

It was my last night in Jamaica and I was staying in Ocho Rios at the Riu hotel. It was a group of us there from all over the U.S. for a mutual friend's wedding. I didn't even know the couple at all that was getting married, I just jumped on the chance to go on trip to JA, since I've never been before. So after a couple of days of every other guy I see and meet trying to ask me "Where I was from and how they had never seen such a beautiful woman"...blah,, blah, blah...we all know how it goes...besides I was told what to expect before hand by some friends.

So you all know they have entertainment every night at the resorts? Well I enjoyed some of the stuff but the bands were not that great. This particular night it was a different band and one of the members caught my eye cause he had on this gold suit! So of course, I'm cracking jokes and laughing with my friends. At the end of the show, everyone said they were tired and ready to go back to the rooms to pack or just chill since we all were leaving on different flights the next day to head back to our destinations in the U.S. I was pissed My last night in JA, I want to at least go to the little club at the resort, dance a little , have some fun. So I go back to my room and change into my version of my skinny jeans which really aren't skinny but they fit just right in all the places they need to!

So I come back down to the little club by myself with none of my crew...lames!!!

Anyhoo, I'm dancing for like an hour or two and I notice that the band members are in the club. How do I know this? Because all I can see in the club is that gold suit and some teeth....

All of this is fate, but I have no clue just yet...

So it's so hot in the club, I go up to the bar to get a water. I notice one of the band members (drummer) cause he has dreads...so I say "Hi" and he says "Hi" so I get my water and go back out to the dance floor. Well about 15 minutes later, the drummer runs up to me and grabs my hand and he says, "I think you two should meet" He has with him the guy in the gold suit (keyboard player)...so we say "Hi" and try to talk and hear each other over the loud music...after about 10 minutes I start feeling a little different about him...this is no joke...I start actually wanting to talk with him and not just be polite. So we're really smiling and I just keep thinking OMG, he is so handsome. He was skinner than I like them but he had the nicest smile and after a while I was able to ignore that gold suit We ask all the usual questions, "Are you seeing anyone and all that...blah blah, blah..." He tells me he is newly single and I'm honestly single at that time as well...so we're hitting it off.

So he's being a gentleman asking me if I needed anything from the bar and we're whispering trying to talk over the music and all of a sudden the D.J. starts playing Usher's "Love in the Club"...well this is July 2008, this is a hot song in Atlanta, so I pull Den out to the dance floor, he almost spilled his beer...he was so nervous and shy. I have no clue what got into me I was thinking this is my last night in JA, I don't know any of those people in here and this mane is fine. I channel my alter ego and I am all over the dance floor. I'm dropping it like the rent is due...all of a sudden guys dancing near us are giving Den props and fist bumps and telling Den, "Man don't like her go and stay on her"...poe thang, Den is not really an attention person so this was making him so nervous not to mention he was technically at his work place. I could have gotten him fired.

We were just vibing to the music and it was in that instance that we realized something was very different! So the whole dance floor parted so we were the center of attention!

I loved it, Den not so much but he hung in there and made it do what it do! So we danced to like maybe two more songs but nothing like that first dance. We ended up staying and talking until the club closed. Before we left the inside of the club, he asked for my contact information, so I write down my e-mail address and he looks at me with those beautiful eyes and all dem teeth and says " Com 'on its 2008, I know you got a cell number" so I wrote down my cell...hehehe

The whole time I'm thinking "Ya right, you're going to call" and "Sure I'll see you again!"

So we end up going outside and we talked for even more hours and it was apparent at this time, that we were onto something special. So it was getting rally late and none of my friends knew where I was or did it seem that they cared cause they had not come down to look for me at all...so anyways, he got up to walk me to the elevator so I could go up to my room and he gave me the biggest hug ever...not like I'm your friend but I'm going to be your man kinda hug....

I tossed and turned for the rest of the evening and couldn't stop thinking about him. I was so sad the next morning when it was time for my flight. He didn't call me before I left...I had my phone on while it was roaming and everything But he did call me two days after I got back to Atlanta and we've been on every since, not with some bumps, but I love him very much and can't wait to start our lives together!

The story for the books for our kids, "How I met your mama dropping it hot on me on the dance floor in JA!" SMH

OMG! I looove your story. Here's to a wonderful life's journey!

Hello! Thank you. We've had some bumps in the road but that's my booski forever and a day!!!!

Ladies I heart yuh but who knows they say time heals all wounds so in time I might be fine but right now I look at every man like don’t stop and talk just keep it moving please….

Develop a "man's mentality" and you will be just fine

OK I finally caught up LOL today has been a whirlwind, but at least I got a chance to go to lunch with the best Manager on the planet!

Well I have 3 anniversaries I celebrate with Hubby during the year

1. The day we got married ( Valentines Day)

2. The day we met

3. The day we got engaged ( Christmas Day)

I am now trying to think of the perfect gift for this man for our upcoming anniversary, I want to do something special since this will be the 1st Xmas- Kwanzaa Holiday in the States.

He Loves jewelry so I want to get him a new set of diamond studs and a new watch I think he will love that. I was also thinking of maybe surprising him with a night at the Inn of the Dove or the Feather nest inn.

I know I'm all alone on here until the morning shift comes on but I need a place to vent. Just when things are going pretty smooth, there has to be a bump in the road. I come home from school at 10:40 to see hubby awake (usually he's half-snoozing by now) & he tells me his Dad can't come for him tomorrow so he's going to 'be here in a couple hours' to pick him up & drive him the 90+ minutes back to his house. ARE YOU FRIKKIN KIDDING ME???!? It is dark, cold, raining buckets & he's going to go on a road trip around 1 in the morning & I have to stress on his late night travels until they arrive at their location at 3 in the morning? The original plan was to come get him some time during the day tomorrow (Friday) & suddenly his dad has too much work to do & can't make it. Uhhh, houston, we have a problem! The logic is completely lacking, & I'm just not digging on this idea. He called his dad to tell him to turn around (since if it's still going to be 2 hours (??....hello, it only takes 90 minutes) then obviously he hasn't gotten too far. So I guess they'll try again tomorrow.....however, I'm still pissed! I'm sleeping on the papasan couch tonight. Goodnight Yardies!

Girl....that is simple man logic....they just didn't think much about it...I know it is probably too late to say this but don't go to bed mad...I am sure it wasn't Lehi's plan to make u upset.....he was just trying to accommodate his dad and didn't think you would have a problem with it. Go curl up next to your man!!!
