The next morning I woke up to the sound of music. I opened my eyes to see the most beautiful blue

eyes I had ever seen looking right back at me. "Morning beautiful."  

"Goodmorning handsome." I replied. He was still holding me. I moved up a bit so my head was on his

shoulder. I closed my eyes again and relaxed, so did he. I began to listen to the music that was playing

on the radio across the room. I realized it was Here In Your Arms by Hellogoodbye, so I began to sing

along. "I like where you sleep,When you sleep, next to me. I like where

you sleep... Here. Our lips, can touch, And our cheeks, can brush.

Our lips can touch. Here. Well you are the one, the one that lies close to me

whispers "Hello, I've missed you quite terribly" I fell in love, in love with you

suddenly now there's no place else I could be but here in your arms."

This song was perfect for how I was feeling. I felt so at piece with Colson. He didnt make me feel

like just a piece of ass he wanted. I truly believe he cares for me on a deeper level like I do for him. In 

the little time I have known him I feel as though I found the the person who could quite very well be my 

soul mate. I only can hope he feels the same way... 

"I didn't know you could sing." Colson told me.

"If thats a compliment, then thank you. Im really not much of a singer. I pretty much only sing in the

shower or along to the radio in the car. I don't really sing in front of people." I told him.

"You just sang for me." 

"Yeah.. you just make me feel comfortable. The song pretty much stated how I feel right about now. Like 

seriously. You make a great pillow." I told him.

He laughed, and before I knew it he had his lips pressed against mine. After awhile of nothing, but 

kissing I decided that it was time for me to go home and get cleaned up. I walked in my front door, ran

up my stair into my room. I needed to take a shower so I got undressed and turned my music on and

pressed shuffle. Swing Life Away came on by Rise Against. I began to sing along as I washed my hair.

" Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?

Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?

Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?

I'll show you mine if you show me yours first

Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse

Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words

We live on front porches and swing life away,

We get by just fine here on minimum wage

If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,

I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand

I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move

The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon

Let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow

I've got some friends, some that I hardly know

But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world

We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go

We live on front porches and swing life away,

We get by just fine here on minimum wage

If love is a labor I'll slave till the end,

I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand....until you hold my hand"

A few minutes later I got out of the shower and wrapped myself in a towel. I sat on my bed debating on 

what I was going to wera when my phone buzzed letting me know I had a text message.

COLSON: You like Rise Against?

Thats weird I thought. 

ME: Yeah..?

COLSON: You sing Swing Life Away Really Well. Your window was open when you must of been

showering. 

ME: Oh My God. Now Im Embarrased..../: Who else heard?

COLSON: I dont think anyone. They're all inside. What are you doing?

ME: Getting dressed haha. Why?

COLSON: Do you have any plans for tonight? 

ME: No. Not Really. I was just going to watch a movie.

COLSON: Wanna watch a movie together?(:

ME: Sure.(; Come on over!

I quickly threw on some athletic shorts a sports bra and a tank top. I was throwing my hair into a bun as

I heard my doorbell ring. "Come on in!" I yelled.  I heared the door close and him yell my name. 

"Im up here!" I yelled back. A few seconds later he was in my doorway. "Hey babe." he said.

"Babe?" I asked.  "Yeah, babe? That alright?" he asked smiling. "Mhmm." I said giving him a kiss.

I put a random movie in since I wasn't really into watching a movie anymore.

All I wanted to do was kiss those lips of his. We sat there fooling around for awhile when I decided to

ask him "Colson,what are we?". He looked me right in the eyes and said " I honestly dont know. Ive

never felt this way before about a girl. You make me want to be a better person. You're my dream girl.

Smart, talented, beautiful, and kind with the right amount of confidence. I would never want to hurt you.

Ever. In the little time I have known you, you have impacted me so much. You make me feel like true

love is real. Not to be mushy either. I dont know what I would do without you." He told me. "Colson, I

think Im falling for you. I know its really soon, but I feel the exact same way.." We began to kiss and

eventually take off our clothes. He looked at me and said " Are you sure you want to do this?".

I answered him with a kiss. 

-A FEW HOURS LATER (COLSONS POV)-

I lay awake in Blair's bed with her sleeping naked in my arms. Damn she was beautiful. I thought

people who believed in love at first sight were phonies. Man was I wrong. I couldnt believe a girl like

her even existed. There is no way I can ever lose her. I dont think I could cope with it. She fills the whole

in my heart my mom left me with when she left. I could lay like this forever. I  want this girl to be by my

side every night when I go to sleep. I just cant help but feel as though she is the one..
