remember when

ten

remember when the first day of the holidays happened? i slept until ten in the morning, and then the doorbell rang and i almost fell off the bed. i heard my mother yelling at me from downstairs: "sweetie, you got a visitor." i knew it was you, it had to be.

so i stood up, ran to the bathroom, ran out of the bathroom, ran into my closet, ran out of my closet and down the stairs. you looked at me like i was a victoria's secret model and i was just an ordinary girl who got dressed and made up in three minutes. literally. i put on an old white tank top, a hippie vest over it, then i fell down in the process of putting on my sneakers, then i successfully put on some random denim shorts, swiped a mascara across my lashes, patted on some lip balm, brushed and almost ripped off my hair and bam. there i was.

you smiled at me and asked me if i had any plans for today. "of course i don't," i lied. i was supposed to go to a swimming pool with my friends, but... i couldn't say no to you. and so i grabbed my phone and you took me out.

we went to a park and lay on the grass until the sun set. we talked a lot and kissed a lot. when the sky was the most beautiful, orange and pink and colorful, you looked into my eyes and whispered: "pretty please, cancel all your plans for the rest of the summer. i want to spend every minute of it with you."

i couldn't believe it.

it all seemed so beautiful, too good to be true, even. i looked at the sunset and replied: "okay."

then, i cracked up. "it's just-we're so cheesy, just listen to us. 'i want to spend every minute with you' and 'okay' and sunsets and oh god, we're so fucking cheesy!" i exclaimed, and then, you started laughing, too, and there we were, two idiots laughing as the sun set.
