**Blown Away by Green Eyes**
*I had just turned 23. I was studying Acting I was in my second year. I was in a new acting class, a more advanced one than the previous year. We had some from my other class, new ones, and four ladies from Europe on exchange. Two were from France, and one was from England, and the other woman was from the Czech Republic. ,*
*The Czech girl was called Ana. Short mousy brown hair, hazel eyes, nice 5’5” body, and cute smile. I asked her out in a shy and unconvincing way, over a packet of Doritos and soda. She said yes. I didn’t have a girlfriend at the time and hadn’t been laid since I hooked up with my ex well before my twenty-third birthday.*
*So we head off to party which was being held in an old fisherman’s market which contained two large buildings and had an annex between the two, where most of the people were milling about. The faint smell of fish hung in the air.* *I noticed a long pop up bar and makeshift crates for sitting on all over.*
