Reunited

Next To Me

I took a quick shower, knowing that Colby would get ready faster than I was going to. I ended up hopping out to see a text saying he'd be over in about 10 minutes, so I threw on a pair of black sweatpants and and a cropped black t shirt, and I filled in my eyebrows and put a bit of concealer on my face.

I texted back and told him the door was open, and while I was blow drying my hair I saw him walking through the door. My stomach turned when I saw him, he also had a pair of black sweatpants on, along with a skin tight t shirt and a pair of white tennis shoes. He had such a nice body.

We made eye contact before my eyes fell down to what he was holding in his hand, it looked like a paper bag. I turned off my blow dryer and leaned out of the bathroom.

"What is that?" I asked as he walked up to me with a smile.

"I hope you still like what you use to order from chipotle, cause that's what I got you."

My mouth dropped as a smile spread across my face.

"How did you even remember that?"

He leaned against the door frame and shrugged, "I remember a lot about you."

I felt myself blushing under his gaze, he looked so attractive to me right then.

"Well we'll see if you remembered right. If you wanna go sit down on the couch I'll be there in a minute."

I blow dried my hair to the point where it was just a little damp, the I sprayed a bit of perfume on before meeting him in the living room.

He smiled and watched me walk around the table and sit down next t him on the couch. He looked me up and down and sent me a shy smirk.

"You look cute" he said, causing me to blush but I didn't look away.

"So do you" I said back. I wanted to be confident around him because I knew his confidence had gone up a lot since he moved.

We both just smiled at each other until I looked down and saw he took out the burrito bowl and set it on the table.

"Alright let's inspect this" I said as I reached for it.

Colby laughed as I opened the container and listed the things I saw, and it was spot on. I commended him for his good work, then we both just ate and talked without the tv on. It was nice to be so comfortable with someone that you don't need electronics to pass the time.

I thanked him for the food, and once we were done I got up and threw everything away.

"So what should we do now?" I asked as I washed my hands.

"Well I was actually gonna ask if I could watch you edit some of my pictures" Colby said from the couch, "I never get to go through and find the ones I like, and I really want to see the process cause I always wonder how you make your pictures so good."

I smiled then, realizing Colby did pay attention to my pictures that I'd post.

"Yeah that would actually be cool" I said, "and you can see what cool gadget I bought before this trip."

I went to my room to grab my camera bag and my laptop, and also the cord that I was going to connect my laptop to the tv with.

Once I came back Colby was looking at his phone.

"Dammit I forgot a charger" he said, and I laughed as I set all my stuff down.

"You can borrow mine."

I went and grabbed it and plugged it into the wall and handed him the cord, then I set up my laptop and grabbed the memory card from my camera. Colby watched intently as I got the pictures pulled up, then I went and plugged the chord into the tv and turned it on.
