16. Humble B. Bumble : Beeloved?

Beeloved?

The third date was ok, Humble thought.

At least this time Blondebee didn’t look so bored.

She was up to her elbows in shopping bags.

Humble paid for the dinner and they had a laugh.

They ended the night on a triple date.

Bee-Real and Love-Bee and Tiny Dancer’s date was late,

So Tiny ended up talking to Blondebee until Buzzie arrived.

They all had fun and then they said their goodbyes.

Humble walked Blondebee home and wanted a kiss goodnight,

But she said “Er, excuse me, not tonight.”

She was his friend, so why couldn’t he love her?

Humble’s confusion reigned, love was hard; oh brother!

Humble wasn’t happy, but he’d been single long enough,

And last night they all had a lot of fun.

He thought it worked well when they were all with each other,

But the two of them alone were far from lovers.

Humble remembered what The Queen had said.

Jeez, it’s like she’s in my head.

Did she see this all before me?

The psychic foresaw this eventuality.

Humble talked to Bee-Real about his situation.

Sorry Bruv, I only know real love, and not infatuation.

You like her, and she likes you.

Where’s the problem?  What you gonna do?
