Dream of escaping..

I saw Sally coming down the stairs, she was ten minutes late, but she looked terrific. She asked if she was late, but I told her no even though I had been stood here alone for ten minutes. I told her we were going to see the Lunts. We horsed about a bit in the cap, at first she didn't want to because of her lip stick but I was being seductive as hell so she didn't have a choice. When we were coming out of this big clinch, I told her I loved her, but the crazy thing was, I meant. "Oh darling I love you too" she replied. The show was crappy, I mean, even if someone in the play died, I didn't even care, it didn't make me sad or anything as I didn't get attatched to that person. During the interval we were in the lobby when some jerk in a suit Sally knew saw us. He came over and said "hi" in such a way you would think they'd been friends for years, when theyv'e probably only met briefly once. They started having this huge conversation about the people they both knew and it was all Blase. Finally Sally introduced us, his name was George something, I don't remember really and he went to Andover. I was all set to puke by the time they'd finished slobbering about. Even at the end of the next act they were acting all Blase about the Lunts. When we finally left, I thought the goddam phoney guy was gonna get in the cab with us becuase he walked a couple of blocks with us, but then said he was going for cocktails. With aload of phoneys probably. By the time we got in the cab, I pretty much hate Old Sally. She asked me if I was doing anything now, I told her no, probably the most truth I'd told in the whole night. She said lets go ice skating, so we did. She only wanted to wear one of them little dresses, she knew how good she would look. And she did, her ass looked so cute. So after a while we took our skates off and went to the bar for a few drinks. All of a sudden, I dont know what happened. I just asked her to run away with me and how grat it would be and I could get a job and we could get married, she totally rejected me, I don't even remember why I did it. She told me that we were only kids and it could never work. I just lost it and told he she was a pain in the ass. Dam, she started crying and I didn't know what to do. I said sorry, sorry was all I said, but she told me to go, I kept trying to apologise, but she was having none of it. So in the end, I did what she wanted, I went.
