I write about whatever is on my mind. Right now you are the one on my mind. I just finished writing this...(11:21pm/ Jan 31, 2006). I love you baby.
Lol, well. So my best friend Mallory tells me about this guy, Michael, that her cousin, Jasmine, was dating. "He's in the National Guard," she mentions. That week she was in a horrible car accident and tragically she died a few days later. So I helped Mallory give him all the support he could get. I could relate to him very easily, the year before I had lost my boyfriend. I knew every emotion, every thought that was running through his head. Well, I started to notice how handsome he was and mentioned this to Mal. She invited me out to lunch and movies on a friday (Jan 12th) and she invited him also. Yes she set us up on a blind date. Well, they came down and picked me up and we went out to eat. At first I was very quiet and tried really, really hard to not look at him or talk to him too much. I knew I would be doomed if I did. We went to Johnny Carino's for lunch. He kept trying to catch my attention through the meal, but I was still being stubborn about it, lol. Finally by the end of lunch, it was hard to keep my eyes off of him....the way he smiled, his eyes (damn his eyes). When we were walking out he put his hands on my shoulders and it felt like everything crashed down around me; I relaxed. We went back to his apartment to wait for a movie to start at the theater. Lol, oh my god... we kept playing around (nothing too dirty, lol) and I was getting kinda tired so I laid down next to him and he put his arm around me. It felt like the most natural thing in the world. I looked up at him and he was starting at me...damn the eyes...and I felt all my carefully built walls that I had made after my boyfriends passing, just crumble away. It felt as if he was starring right through me. Hehe, so it was almost time for the movie and we went to watch it. Pan's Labyrinth, excellent movie by the way. We sat together and he had his arm around me the whole time. When it was over, Mal left us alone and we went back to his apartment for about half an hour. Lol, no, nothing much happened. Then he brought me back home and we held hands and kissed and what not. The next day we decided we wanted to be together, so we did. The next week I went over and spent the night with him. It was wonderful being together the whole time. Around two weeks later, he started talking about us getting married. As it turned out, my friends knew about the whole thing before I did, lol. Yes I love him with my entire being...even though we haven't been together long. Seems like we rushed into things a bit, but we have our heads on straight and are going to wait a few years before getting married. Lol, as I'm writing this I'm chatting with Mallory.
Direct quote from our conversation....
