The Trouble With Charlie

I went out for lunch with Charlie. I don't know, I don't think I get him. He smiles and his eyes sparkle at me, whenever we chat.

He asked if I was coming to Friday nights EOFY firm party, big piss up. He said good and smiled when I said yes.

Later in the afternoon, he said he enjoyed lunch, as we made coffee, in the kitchen.

That's good, I said. It must have been with someone nice.

He smiled and said, "Yes, with someone nice."

"So did I," I said. "Had lunch with some one nice."

He blushed and smiled and headed back to his desk, looking back and smiling.

But the couple of times I've suggested going out for a drink together, he just smiles and doesn't answer.

It's just nice to have a gay friend at work.
