Today was fine.

Better than fine, actually.

Aiden is in my room.

It's only 9:30, yeah, but i'm tired.

My headphones are on, and i'm just staring at the ceiling, while Aiden has his arm slinged around my shoulders while we're in my bed.

PLAYING:
Liana Flores—rises the moon

Lyrics:
Oh-Oh,
Close your weary eyes
I promise you that soon the
Autumn comes to darken
Fading summer skies
———————————————————————
You know, closing my eyes doesn't seem like a bad idea.

I'm getting tired.

'Breathe, Breathe, Breathe...'

I haven't been getting enough sleep lately.

It all started when we went to that field trip about a year ago.

I mean, it's been a problem for me.

Even before the field trip to Savannah.
———————————————————————
'Days pull you down like a sinking ship
Floating is getting harder
But tread the water child
And know that meanwhile'
———————————————————————

It started to rain.

Lightly, yeah, but still raining.

All of this combined is lulling me to sleep.

My breathing is evening out.

And maybe...i'm finally going to sleep.

Rises the moon

Just maybe...

I feel Ash relax slightly in my arms.

I look down to see the top of her head, with her black headphones.

I lift my head a bit to see her face.

Is she sleeping?

I see her eyes closed, the usual furrowed eyebrows replaced with calmness.

Plain calmness.

Extraordinary beauty.

I wonder if we're a "thing" you know?

We haven't said that we are.

What makes a relationship a relationship?

We've cuddled and all, but we haven't kissed yet.

She's only kissed me on the cheek on Valentine's Day.

But all that aside, I wonder how she fell asleep so quickly.

Her music maybe?

———————————————————————PLAYING:
Laufey—Valentine
0:00
I've rejected affection
For years and years
And know that I have it
And damn it
It's kind of weird

———————————————————————

I kind of want to see what she listens to...

Wouldn't that be weird?

Eh, it's fine.

I slowly start to take off her headphones, the music already spilling out.

Don't I know this song?

———
He tells me i'm pretty
Don't know how to respond
I tell him that he's pretty too
Can I say that?
Don't have a clue.
———

I chuckle a bit at the lyrics.

That feels like our dynamic.

Isn't this the song that played in the cafeteria at the Valentine's Day Dance?

I'm pretty sure it is.

I put the headphones on my head, calming down myself.

No wonder she fell asleep so fast.

She hasn't been fell asleep like this since that day. (can't sleep.)

It still makes me blush today.

That was what? Two weeks ago?

Whatever.
