Du Nord: The Believing heart lost years (EN)

Preparation

Monday 19 June 2006, Dalystown, Ireland

"Well, the first day was the most memorable without a doubt, but there's still a long way to go in these days that I've spent in this place, where I'm going to tell you every part of it, I've really enjoyed myself and I've become more relaxed, taking my mind off the presentations, well anyway, let's go on a few more adventures as this will make you want to tell these stories to the girls, I'm sure they'll be very attracted to the idea of visiting this place, that's for sure."

I wake up, I'm in front of Croix, very early in the morning, she's so cute in her pyjamas, I think I had the most bizarre dream where I lay down with Croix and a lot happened, I slept with my girlfriend, in a room of our own, it's so cute, I kiss her forehead and she wakes up and kisses me on the lips too, with a smile on her face, running her hand across it.

"Good morning my love, I love you very much" she said, being all romantic and I smiled back.

"I love you too" I say a little sleepily.

We get up, I walk to the bathroom where I start to brush my teeth and do my personal hygiene, only to be hugged from behind by my girlfriend, who smiles and then she brushes her teeth too, and then I go on to do the rest of my morning things, which gives me a little extra comfort.
When I come out of the bathroom, I go back to my room, still very sleepy and look at the bed, stretching out, I'm just going to wait for Croix, I want to go hand in hand with her downstairs to the kitchen, I hope there's food there to eat, I'm hugged again by my girlfriend who is very sleepy, today she decided to be very clingy, how cute.

"Looks like someone's head is still full of memories, doesn't it?" She says, and I blush a little.

"So it wasn't a dream?" I say a little confused.

"I think it was a dream come true, but it definitely wasn't" I'm a little shocked, but then I turn to Meridies and grab her face, going to give her a few kisses on the cheek.

"Let's get going my love, I'm hungry now" she smiled back at me and we left the room hand in hand.

We even put on matching slippers, went through the corridors, then up the stairs, walking a bit sleepily, I even thought about slipping on the stairs, but I'll do it right and go down normally, so I got to the dining room and there were already a few people there, as well as a lot of food scattered around, so my girlfriend and I sat down at the table and soon I could see some smiles coming from our mums.

"What a long night you've had, eh?" My mum Laura said.

"Uh, what do you mean, Mum?" I say a little embarrassed.

"The couple really consummated the union, didn't they," said my aunt April.

"Mum!" I don't understand anything.

"Bernadette and I were in the next room and I could hear some of the noise, I definitely know what happened, but it's okay girls, it's a couple thing, it's your puberty, I can understand it, anyway, I hope you're all right now, you don't have to tell us any details about what happened, I just ask you to take care of yourselves" They heard us... Shame on me, I'm hiding my face.

"There's no need to be embarrassed, it's completely normal, you're a couple, you were in your prime and you showed your love for each other, but let's avoid talking about it too much, after all, we're eating" said Mum Bernadette, and she's right, it's better not to talk about it.

I'm already taking some toast and buttering it, which I put in a toaster, I love doing this, waiting for it to pop out all warmed up, while I'm also eating some fruit, looking at Croix's face, which was frozen with so much colour, I don't think she really expected that reaction from her.
She's the one who knows these things best, the toast is soon ready and jumps out of the machine, I take it and pass some jelly, while I also give some of it to my girlfriend who opens her mouth and eats, a cutie, I go back to eating, drinking some milk and sharing the food with my Meridies, our mums looking at us both still with a smile, I get really embarrassed just thinking that they know too much, did I go too far with that? I don't know, but it was a marvellous moment.
