To Live Past 20

t.w. (slight abuse, scars)

I stayed up all night texting this guy I met only a couple hours before.

*Last night*

Marcus: So what does your whole face look like?

I send him a couple pictures that I look decent in.

Marcus: You're gorgeous

I know it's a genuine compliment but if he saw Carly I guarantee his perspective would switch to her.

Me: Thank you where are you from?

Marcus: Alabama...

Me: Are you in an open relationship with your cousin by any chance?

Marcus: Most original joke award goes to Adrian

Me: I'm serious yes or no

Marcus: I can't answer for a reason ;)

Me: Oh wow...

Marcus: I always give the right answer

Me: You're wrong

Marcus: I'm always right.

Me: If you answer this right then I'll agree. What does the world revolve around?

Marcus: you

There was no reasoning behind me asking I just wanted someone to say that to me for the first time.

Me: And you're wrong it's the sun

Marcus: Could've said both, wanna ft?

Me: Yeah

We were on FaceTime all night talking about the dumbest shit ever, I think I've found myself in the version of a boy.

We have the same humor, music taste, favorite shows. If this man isn't my soulmate I don't know who is.

After being on FaceTime for the longest he unfortunately had to hang up.

I feel like I've met him somewhere I'm just not sure where.

I fell asleep soundly knowing when I wake up we can do it all over again.

I woke up at 1 in the afternoon, I think that was the best I've slept in a long time. I roll over to check my phone and realize I have texts from three different people.

Is it national text Adrian day?

I have two messages from Carly, one from Marcus and five from Silas..

I open Carly's first knowing she's been waiting the longest.

Carly: Do you wanna come with me to this bonfire tonight?
Carly: I don't know who all will be there but I know it'll be fun.
