I stand there for a minute
and then
I close the door
and smile.
My smile turns into
giggles.
I belly flop
onto my bed,
splashing panties
everywhere.
This is so Jackson.
He gets mad.
He throws a little tantrum.
We laugh about it.
I remember
the time
I decided to go
to the day spa
with my girlfriends
instead of hanging
with him.
He waited outside the spa
until we walked up.
He pulled me aside,
all pissed off,
and told me
I totally ruined his day.
He said, "I had something special planned."
"Special?" I asked,
wondering what exactly that meant.
He shrugged
and pulled two
basketball tickets
out of his pocket.
I burst out laughing and
punched him in the arm.
"Basketball is not special!"
He couldn't help it.
He started laughing too.
Then he pulled me
into his arms
and whispered
in my ear,
"I just love you so much.
I want to be with you always."
It's like I can hear him
repeating those words now.
I go to work
putting the stuff back
where it belongs.
The room starts to warm up,
which makes the ice in the igloo
start to
m
e
l
t
and I whisper into the silence of the night,
"I want to be with you always too."
Like a warm summer breeze
in my head,
I hear his words.
This is so hard for me, Ava.
I want it to be like it was before.
I'll try to be more understanding.
Please forgive me?
Like he even
has to ask.
