Morning
7:48amWe planned on seeing the sunrise this morning but we were simply too tired. After all we did stay up a little late last night just talking to each other about any memories from our lives. She even showed me her old photos of herself from when she was in high school. I also told her some of my school memories. We even briefly talked about our paranormal experiences, well mainly me because she cared to know more about it and I had more stories to tell in that category. We introduced information about our family and friends. We also took the chance to talk more about our past relationships. So much talking in one night! I think we probably lost our voices, kidding. It was just a chill night hanging out together and learning more about each other.
This morning Silje is going it take me to her favorite quiet spot. It's the first part of the date apparently, so early in the morning but I love it already. We decided to make our own coffee and put it in a coffee cup holder to keep it warm meanwhile we go to our location. We even brought two favorite mugs with us to pour our coffee into. But noticed she brought her guitar with her and a blanket so ideas are starting to come into mind. I'm gonna try not to think too much though since I don't wanna spoil it too much for myself. No intuitive thoughts today, thank you!
We walked hand in hand once again once we got out of our ten minute train ride to go further of downtown. The smell of the ocean slapped me on the face once we crossed the big road near the pier area. It's so beautiful here and it's also my first time in this part of Oslo. She guided us to a quiet spot on a rather big dock. It seems like she's been here countless of times before. And there's literally nobody in this little almost secret spot. A few big trees are surrounding this area also making it more private.
"This is my favorite spot.. Especially to write my music" she explained to me as she started to set up the warm blanket on the floor. Luckily I brought an extra warm blanket in my bag for us to use. "I can see why, it's so pretty and peaceful" I responded. The sound of the small waves filled up the occasional silence between us. I looked at the morning sun shining on the water. That's actually one of my favorite things to see.After taking some cute photos, we finally sat down to enjoy the view and drank our warmish coffee. The slight breeze made me hang on to the blanket that's wrapped around our shoulders. "I really love this so much" I spoke before taking a another sip of my coffee. She smiled at me with a pleased face. "I'm glad you do... I knew you would love it as much as I do". I leaned my head on her shoulder after taking a sip of my remaining coffee. This moment couldn't be more perfect.
My focus is now on Silje getting her guitar out and some other stuff from her bag that she brought. Seems like she's going to play something which is making my cheeks feel warm. It's so sweet to me this she feels this comfortable around me. I think it's such vulnerable thing to sing or play an instrument in front of someone. I can't imagine doing this myself even if I could sing or play an instrument (which I can't do).
After a few moments of her 'tuning' her guitar, or whatever it's called, she was finally ready to play. "I'm gonna play something for you, see if you recognize it". She gave me a brief smile before looking back down at her guitar. I nervously watched and listened to her. After a few seconds I realized she is playing 'watch you sleep' by girl in red. She then started singing along to her playing which surprised me. I thought she was only going to play. I watched her fingers grace the guitar strings while the sun is hitting her hands lightly. She's literally glowing.
Occasionally she looks at me while singing softly making me blush each time. This moment just got even more perfect. It's like I'm living in a movie scene. Now I really don't ever wanna leave.
