L: When can I see you again?
I stared at this text message for some time now with a huge smile on my face. 'SHE WANTS TO SEE ME AGAIN OH MY GOSH' I thought to myself while texting her back.
R: You can see me tonight if you would like.
Since the temperature was dropping I decided to wear something warm yet comfortable; which consisted of leggings, a hoodie, and crocs.
Not really warm in a sense but I was comfortable.
I met up with Lena at the diner and I decided to get a slushy and afterwards we took a walk. We ended up sitting down and talked about anything and everything as usual. Our conversations were never boring which I genuinely loved.
The wind started to pick up and it began to get cold. Lena noticed that I began shivering from the cold and offered me her jackets. "Here you can wear my jacket, I don't need it, I have like 2 other jackets on." She had said to me. I laughed and turned her offer down and said " Girl I don't need it, plus I'm a big girl, I can't fit that!" She laughed and kept insisting I wear it but I continued to turn her offer down.
"Its getting late, we need to start making our way back before the RA's do room checks." I said as I stood up and stretched. I felt her eyes watching my every move but I thought nothing of it. She walked me back and we talked some more until we reached my dorm. I sighed with a smile. "I enjoyed our walk and talk, we should definitely see each other sometime again and text me when you make it safe to your room" I told her. "I definitely would love to see you again, and I will." She responded.
I smiled and wrapped my arms around her neck as she wrapped her arms around my waist and we hugged. I closed my eyes and inhaled slightly. Damn she smelled so good. Her arms squeezed me tightly and I felt like I could've melted right then and there. I felt warm, I felt like I could get used to this feeling forever. I felt safe and secure.
I reluctantly let her go and immediately felt cold. I didn't want that feeling to end but I also didn't want to get ourselves in trouble for being late. I told her I would text her and I watched her walk away to her dorm. I turned around and walked to my room with a smile on my face and gathered my things to go shower.
She was constantly on my mind after that. Wondering what she was doing, wondering if she thought about me too. I was in too deep and I knew that. I was fucked. How can someone become so hooked and smitten with someone you only known for a month?
