I never know how to start things.
I go over the scenario in my head,be it an awkward conversation with my mother or a letter but it never quite goes the way I plan. I mean realistically it won't. This story is the same. It's just the Daily happenings of about a year for me. But it seemed so much longer than 12 months to me. It seemed like my whole life began and ended in one year. For me,it began when I met ociel. It wasn't the average "his fam just came to town and he was perf" he just appeared out of nowhere,but it seemed like he'd always been there. When we spoke that first time it felt like we were just continuing an old conversation we never quite finished.
I sat on the front porch swing,drinking a coffee,drawing,and playing music a bit louder than I really should be outside,but it was raining. I hadn't even heard him approach but I looked up and there he was.
"Hey"
"Hey?"
"It's raining"
I smirked "really? Hadn't noticed"
"Amazing really"
"What is? The rain?"
he shook his head in mock sadness as if he had given me a test and I failed already
"Everything,you,me,the rain,this song. It's amazing. Just recycled stars,all of it,but here it is"
"So why are you on my porch?"
He looked hurt "blunt aren't you?"
"As much as I love your bullshit philosophy,I also love knowing why people just appear on my porch,it's a hobby of mine really."
"Rad" he nodded along to Message Man by twenty one pilots "I'm here because I got hella lost and its hella raining and I saw you and you're playing good music. Kinda wanted to sit and chill with you"
"Sure,come sit" I moved my legs from their lounging position and kicked them up in the railing.
He sat looking as comfortable as me.
I looked him up and down,he had a bring me the horizon shirt which I approved of,hella tight jeans. Like lady jeans,shaggy brown hair,a septum ring,and far too many rings.
He looked at me
"Mind if I smoke?"
I shook my head "nah"
His eyes were sad,and angry.also green that too.
A few heartbeats passed
"So " I breathed " who are you"
"My name is ociel"
Cool.
