To This New Year (C)

Our Story

Well here goes nothing, "Let's go to your room, I have to tell you something," I said walking off. Once were back in his room, he looked at me again with a confused expression. "David, you know how much I love that name, it makes me feel like my brother is still here, god I miss him, but I needed to talk to you about that. Well more, about you, I feel like David is here with me, its crazy, like just yesterday we were at the zoo getting Mr. Waddles and he's still watching me run in circles. I often wander what it'd be like if he were still alive. It doesn't matter though because he sent you, he sent you to meet me, and he knew that I would be a dork and not get it so he even signed his name, when you first said your name was David, it was like everything was okay, and really my brother didn't kill himself, it was just a 10 year joke, and you were secretly him, that everything was back to perfect. I got something better, I got you, you remind me so much of my brother that you might just have him in your mind. And i love that, I love you. If you don't feel the same I'm totally okay with that, but I just need you to stay my friend. You are really the best thing that has ever happened to me." he stayed quiet, his eyes were filled with shock. Oh shit. "I know that this is going to seem kinda whoreish since I just got out of a relationship, I guess, but I'm not like this normally. To be honest I usually never even have people to talk to, but will you, make me the happiest I've been in 10 years and be my boyfriend?" I asked him, he was silent, I was so nervous, after 23 and a half seconds of silence I got up and ran to the bathroom. He followed and banged on the door as I started to throw up, I'm so stupid to think he'd like me. "Jackie! Yes Jackie! Yes I will be your boyfriend! I love you, Always have, always will, just please op-" he couldn't finish before I opened the door and ran into his arms. "Yay! it's about time!" shouted Isobel as she stared at us in awe. "I love you, David. I need you. So promise me, no matter what, you'll never leave?" I asked "I promise" he hugged me tighter, "as long as you promise me something" he said looking at me. "Okay, anything for you," I looked at him, and he looked at Isobel then whispered in my ear. "Promise me the same thing, and promise you'll never break that promise." I felt his warm breath against me ear as I started to cry and nodded my head almost violently. "I promise," I said looking at him. "Forever and always." He said.
