"dude... we literally sat on the sidewalk for, like, an hour. she was hugging my arm, her head was leaning on my shoulder, and my head was leaning against her's... we didn't even talk, but it was so ahhh," i rambled to matthew.

the more i recalled back to it, the more my face flushed. i lifted the collar of my hoodie to hide my face in it.

matt let out a small laugh. "that's really cute," he told me. "what did you two do after?"

"we drove around a bit and listened to music. i then took her home, and i walked her up to her apartment. before i left, she hugged me. she hugged me so closely and for so long. it was—" i cut myself off as i fell back across my bed. i pulled my hoodie further over my face.

"damn, bro; you're whipped as hell," he laughed.

"no, i'm not," i raised my hand, and i flipped him off.

"yeah, you are," he teased. "you really like her, huh?"

"no," i huffed. "i don't— i dunno."

"you do," he dragged out.

"man, shut up," i grumbled.

i laid on my back, and i crossed my arms over my chest as i looked up at the ceiling. i looked over towards matthew.

"you saw her again today, right? don't you two take your dogs to the dog park on sunday's?" he raised a brow.

"yeah, but shark is still at the vet, so she, obviously, didn't go today," i shrugged.

he was silent for a moment. "when are you going to make a move on her?" he queried. "it's been, like, three months, dude!"

"i'm not— i don't know, i—" i let out a small puff of air as i stopped talking. "why do you keep trying to rush me?!"

"because... it's been three months," he said again as he deadpanned.

"so?" i huffed.

"so, you need to hurry up and make a move! ask her on a date or some shit, damn," he shook his head.

"fuck off," i grumbled. "i'll take as much time as i want to, thank you very much!"

"you're hopeless," he sighed as he slouched back in the chair he was sitting in. i flipped him off.

<~~~~~>

a little less than an hour later, matthew went home. i, on the other hand, left my apartment to go to kai's tattoo parlor. i'm getting that back tattoo today.

i'm laying on my stomach with my airpods in, while kai tattooed my back. the pain isn't that bad; i'm scrolling through my phone right now.

a text popped up at the top of my screen. i smiled as i saw that it was billie.
