To Love & to Cherish

11

July 10th, Nova's POV

I want you to know, death ain't my closest fear
I fear losin' love, 'cause death is the end of the story
Love is when we live inside our glory
Yeah, so I wanna be loved forever
I hope maybe we experience love together

I hummed along to the music playing as I straightened my hair in my mirror. It was pretty early in the day, like 11 o'clock but I didn't have time to waste since i already spent too much time on my makeup, I was feeling fancy so I did an new look..

All I had to do today was run errands, but I had so many of them that I didn't have time to do anything else... not even see my baby Sway

I'm not trippin tho because we have been stuck to each other like glue and everybody knows that those kind of relationships where you suffocate each other do not end well..

It feels nice to have a day to myself even though i really like Sway..

We still haven't officially talked about what we are doing, but I don't want to initiate the conversation because I'm scared of being rejected.. like we haven't done anything but harmless and quick kisses, cuddling and flirting but who knows if that's her definition of friends..?

I shook my head to get those negative thoughts out of my head as I wrapped up doing my hair

I needed to go grocery shopping and go to the mall for a few things, then stop by Barnes & Noble to get some new books.

I'm saying errands like it's really important shit but really I'm just shopping

I looked down at my phone to check the time and seen a message from Sway

I rolled my eyes before smiling at her texts.. she swears she be checking me.

I grabbed my brush off my vanity and ran it through my hair a few times before slipping on these cute coach sandals I had just gotten yesterday..

Today I had on a simple and calm fit, a brown quarter zip top with light-washed jeans.

The weather isn't too bad for it being July but I'm going to be in the car with the AC on most of the day so I wasn't worried.

I was in my car heading to the mall first, because I got a sudden burst of adrenaline and boldness that I knew I needed to act on.

I decided I was gonna get Sway a little gift as a little girlfriend proposal.. and whatever happens will just have to happen

I pulled into the first parking spot i seen even though it was kind of far from the entrance. i pulled my key out of the ignition and grabbed my keys and wallet, heading towards the hat shop.

She isn't a big hat person, but she does have a couple and i think it would be cute to get a customized one for her :)

"Hellooo" i said politely as I walked into the shop
