I realize I might have a problem, just a tiny one, no big deal.
As I stand here, small hands in my big ones. Grey seems clueless and ready to play in the park as we patiently wait for the others to meet us.
The feelings I'm experiencing are ones I haven't felt in a while. Nervous, scared but none less excited. It's weird how you could forget feelings you haven't felt in a long time but also the rush.
It is dangerous and now I know why people fight hard for their relationship and try to maintain the feelings forever. Once you lose something and begin to feel it again, it only takes so much before you crave it.
But here I am as I look around eagerly like a kid looking for their parents after staring at the toys too long in the store.
I decided that since I couldn't stay away from Magnolia, I should spend more time with her. Maybe I will realize that she's not that amazing and this little obsession will go away.
Hence why I am waiting for her at the park for a picnic we set up a couple of days ago.
I thought everything would be good if I kept my distance away from her and Arlo but after we ran into them I knew that it was a sign.
I must sound crazy.
It was right there the whole time, her number in my phone just waiting for me to change the random numbers to a name.
The only reason I had her number was to prove to myself I have self-control, looks like I don't.
Man if my younger self would see this he would say one word "whipped" and she's not even my girl.
Of course, after the bump-in, Victoria had a selective choices of words. That night ended with her in her bed and well me in mine, us at different apartments.2
The thought of Magnolia was killing me, I just wanted to see her again. To the point that I started hanging with Niall almost every day for an accidental bump with her.
She was busy most of the time or doing things with Arlo. Which was okay, I did end up getting to know Calliope more and realize Magnolia was right, she and Niall are the same. I watched their interactions when we were at pubs or restaurants. They seem happy together, everything new with knowing each other and proving that they listen to what the other has said.
