unrelated continued

10:07 Monday Night I frowned. "What do you mean?" I asked. He listed the reasons he disliked Overseas such as he was too quiet and answered everything too briefly. Internet also said he seemed to get the impression that Overseas assumed too much. I let him babble on a while longer but I didn't want to really get into it. "Well he and I were really close. You know that, and I don't want to get into it," I said (rather bluntly, I suppose). I sighed and finished the conversation with, "I think I'll go for a walk by myself. Without you, without Overseas. Maybe I'll call a friend at home. I need time to think." With that, I took my purse and jacket and left the room. I took the stairs to the top floor and then took the elevator down, pressing all the floor buttons so that it would stop at each floor and take ages to go down. I sat in the corner and waited, thinking to myself about this whole dilemma, and trying to figure out what to do. When I finally reached the lobby, I went outside and strolled around the street, just up and down the one block. I called a friend at home just to say hello, but I got her answering machine. The message I left was, "Hey, it's me, just wanted to call to say Seattle is great, I got a surprise visitor, and I hope you're doing well. Oh well, maybe I'll call tomorrow. See ya, bye." and hung up. On my way back to the hotel from my 18th visit to the south-east corner of the street, 12 visits after talking to the answering machine, I saw Overseas coming out of the hotel. I ran over to him and asked him what was he doing out at this hour of the night, and he said he couldn't sleep. "What are You doing out here?" he asked. "I needed to think," I said. "There were too many distractions in the hotel." He nodded. I knew he'd understand. We went up to his hotel room and sat on the couch drinking water and just talking about the most random and unrelated things. This went on for about half an hour until I decided I should probably go back to my hotel room, to Internet. I left Overseas's suite with the doubtless decision in my mind. I finally knew who I was in love with.
