I bag packed this summer visiting; Amsterdam, Prague, Vienna and Paris. It was Prague that left the biggest mark on me. The city is beautiful, with exceptional architecture, bright sunshine and a sparkle which lightens the darkest of hearts.
My friend and I whilst there attended a boat party; these yellow shirted boys within the New Town Square approached us trying to sell tickets and that Irish accent along with a ‘boat’ party captured our attention.
We opted out on the predrinks in the pubs, because immediately I got on solid ground with the lads, and received inside information it was far cheaper to pick something up at the shop and predrink and that they would be there at the town square under the clock from 8pm but we would need to meet them at 10.30pm.
We spent the rest of the day wandering the city, visiting the palace and exploring whilst excited for the night to begin. It would be our one and only girly night. We got back to our hostel, showered moisterised groomed and put effort into our make-up. Now bag packing we did not have the most amazing outfits with us but on our wanders we bought a bandeu bra, mine bright yellow my friends black. We had high hopes we could jump into the river.
The boat moved slowly and did disappoint my expectations with no crazy jumping into the water, but it was an unforgettable night. My friend found her target an Australian with the most English name ever; John. They where joined lip to lip all night. Me. Well I spend the night talking to the Irish yellow shirts. I loved the Irish accent, but also always prefer talking to the workers.
One yellow shirt was from New Zealand, and tried super hard to get with me. However I had seen a drunken boy on the boat and felt he needed attention so tried to get the NZ lad to help him out, we went below deck to the bar. NZ got distracted by the dance floor on the way, his hand wanded my body and his mouth tried to meet mine. I awkwardly looked the other way, and tried to pull out by dancing. Eventually I snuck back to the deck to check on the drunken boy, who’d now thrown up over board.
There he was, my Irish boy. He had gotten the glass of water and was trying to take care. I must of said at some point whilst we took care of the lad ‘I want to marry an Irish’ because that night we became husband and wife.
He was exceptionally tall, yet I only realised once the bear goggles where removed the next day. He had dark hair and was not beautiful I will not lie. But his heart and personality created an incredible man to me and his accent. Well his Irish accent flew me away.
I did not get with him though, not at the boat party. We left the boat party together chatting away, and immediately I looked for my friend who was with John and a shard of glass was in her foot.
I got her and I an invite to the yellow shirted Irish boys place, if we ditched John. I thought this may prove difficult but with my friends foot, I convinced her we would clean her up and could only do it together but would meet John at the club Roxy.
The boys place was miserable. You entered via stainless steal gates, went down a dark damp corridor, turned left and there was their place. A two bedroom one floored ‘boys pad’, dirty clothes everywhere, unwashed dishes and four single beds to 5 or 7 of them.
I drank most of Irish boys drink that night in my drunken state, of course he did not stop me and like I the Irish have a sarcastic witty banter. I fitted right in. My friend found a new lad who took care of her but as soon as we where in the club she was rushed off by John.
I spent the time in the club with Irish boy, he was good and even allowed me to ensure I always knew where my friend was. He had a heart of gold.
All the lads did drugs, he did not. All the lads did one night stands, he did not. In fact he had been with three girls, one was a one night stand and regreted it. So totally understood when I told him nothing would happen at all. He never pushed his luck. He was exceptionally respectful.
After the night club he walked my friend and I home, saying it was just round the corner. It ended up being 30 minutes mainly because my friend brought John and of course they kept stopping to make out. But by this point Irish boy and I kissed too.
The first time we kissed German friend came to my mind, I felt guilty to the stomach. I could not understand if that was right or not. I was not with him. We had not even been on a date but he was the only person on my travels to keep talking to me. Infact he was cute at times; for instance I said how pretty Charles bridge was and he responded ‘Beauty comes with the name’.

The next day we saw the Irish lads in the town square and they all came up to us having a good old chat. One tried to make it awkward my saying ‘Oh look who it is?’ to the Irish lad, who kept his distance for a little while then approached.
It was easy to chat to them all, we even spoke about being married and made our plan. He was studying in London for 6 months, I would finish my degree then move to Ireland for him.
We made plans that evening to get onto the boat party for free, or if not just go out with them after it. So my friend and I went back to the square around 8pm. (had to be fashionably late).
We sat for a while with a few lads approaching us, we met a new one Rary. He was a massive drugy. Even sold the stuff. He was good fun though and good looking. But that was first and last time we saw that lad.
Much later my Irish lad finally came over and sat by me. We had some good conversation and I learnt his brother was a member of Boyzone. Not that I knew the member and not at the time I realised he was telling me that, that was his brother. Must of come across so rude to him then.
I met his female friend then ‘C’.
Unfortunately the lads could not fit on the boat party so we all headed to ehir place to drink. My friend and I picked up the cheapest, rankest drink ever. A cartoon of wine for 34CZK.
After only 3 drinks I felt my head spin, and shirt lad spotted me tell my friend I was drunk. We had great banter after that moment, and I did find him attractive. But these Irish lads had such respect for each other and none would make a move because of my Irish lad the night before.
I was surprising awkward with him. I thought I did not want to get with him. I kept my distance slightly whilst still chatting away to him. He got the picture as did not try anything all night, yet kept an eye on me in the sleazy night clubs and walked us home again!
On the walk from their house to the nightclub, C slipped up and said about my Irish boy getting with my friend in front of the Irish boy and me. Immediately the Irish boy through his hand over her mouth and told her she would ruin it all. Obviously she mixed up my friend and I.
Later on she exclaimed how Irish boy bragged about getting with a gorgeous, hot girl. Which got to me, I felt like a trophy, which was silly of me. She was informed me how I was his type because of my free personality. I did not truly understand what she meant but again it got to me.
It is funny. I spent the whole night having great fun, dancing and chatting away too all of them. Whilst ensuring Irish boy never tried it on. He walked us back and I ensured my friend cock blocked him. Then I woke up the next day regretting not having a good-bye kiss.
He was a lovely lad, with a big heart and I backed out. I am not even sure why? I wonder if I so screwed up I run from nice people. For fear of liking them. Yet I actually think I do like this holiday fling. Which is stupid. I will never see him again. One kiss would not of changed anything.
I need to sort myself out. I cannot be scared of men, my past is just that. I need to move on with my life.
