wow. this is really  happening. i'm going on my first date in almost a year. josh is a really nice guy, and based on the conversations we've shared, i can't wait to meet him in person.

my last relationship didn't work out that well. i was verbally abused by my ex, alex. he wasn't ever drunk or anything, he'd just find something to bitch about and blame and yell at me for it. i've managed to come out of my shell since then, thanks to brendon. come to think of it, damn, that kid has a big forehead. after i built enough courage to break up with alex, which was extremely hard, i fell into a state of depression and slight anxiety.

i became extremely sick of being lonely and would do anything just to pretend i had someone next to me in bed, cuddling. in this case, a pillow. i guess i just craved love. i missed the feeling of someone kissing me. showing affection is my favorite. just knowing i have someone who i could call mine is extremely satisfying. i'm hoping and praying that josh will be the one. and i hope he gives nice hugs, i'm a huge sucker for hugs.

not gonna lie, i'm a bit scared. my nerves have been on a roll lately.

i must've zoned out for a bit because the ringing of a door bell woke me up from my trance. "well, here goes nothing." i said to myself and opened the door.

there he stands before me. an extremely attractive blue haired, brown eyed dork. "woah" i said, my eyes wondering over the backwards snapback, black skinny jeans, nasa t-shirt, and camouflaged jacket clad boy. "woah" he mocked with wide eyes. you can almost see a hint of love within his brown orbs. "hi" he said giving a squinty smile. i shit you not, i felt my stomach drop when he did that squinty smile thing. i blushed, "h-hi" i replied. nice one ty, all he did was say hi yet here you are, the color of a damn tomato and you stuttered. two for one huh? "you are much more cuter in person than i imagined" i blushed, again. he really knows how to make someone blush every .02 seconds.. "t-thank you" i giggled.

he smiled, giving the adorable squinty eyes again. "well mr. joseph, we must get a goin', your chariot awaits." he said, holding his arm out so i could loop mine through. looping my arm with his, he brought me out to his white 2001 jeep wrangler. bringing me to the passenger side, josh opened the door, waiting for me to buckle up before shutting the door and going to the driver's side. josh started the car and pulled out of the parking lot. "hey jishwa, where are we going?" i asked, completely oblivious, per usual. "that's for me to know and for you to find out." he smirked. "c'mon j, that isn't fair." whiny tyler now activated. "au contraire mon frere" he stated, eyes still on the road. "you speak french?" i questioned. "je ne parle bien français, petit garçon. fait assez couramment. chouette non?" i just stared at him blankly, wide eyes and mouth slightly open. "close your mouth ty, you'll catch flies." josh giggled. "sooo, are you gonna tell me what the hell you just said or are you going to leave me clueless?" he laughed. "i said, 'i do indeed speak french, baby boy. quite fluently actually. cool isn't it?'" i nodded and smirked. "that's pretty fucking hot if you ask me."

he looked over at me while winking, pulling into a park overrun by trees. just from the windshield, i could see a huge lake with rocks as a barrier, a park for young children, and a dock that extended about a mile down the lake. he took my hand and helped me out of the car. i mumbled a 'thank you' and shut the door, not even realizing his hand was still intertwined with mine. hands still locked together, he lead me to a grass area, overlooking the water.

josh let go of my hand, both of us slightly disappointed, as he pulled out one of those cliche red and white plaid picnic blankets. he set out containers of food, plastic utensils, plates, and bug spray onto the blanket. opening each container and setting each food item on the plate, i smiled as i saw the handmade wraps, cut fresh fruit, goldfish crackers, cookies, and juice boxes spread around the blanket. "i hope you don't mind these snacks, they're my favorites." josh giggled. "don't worry, they're my favorite too." i grinned as i continued, "as long as i'm here with you, i'll always be content."



the night was coming to an end and josh and i had to pack up the items to head home. we drove for about 20 minutes until we reached my apartment. "would you like to come inside?" i offered. "of course" josh grinned. i grabbed his hand as we entered and showed him around. finishing the tour, i lead him to the couch. i patted the seat next to me, giving him the okay to sit. he did as told and leaned against the arm and base of the couch. "i'm going to go get something to drink, would you like anything?" i asked. "you don't happen to have redbull do you?" josh smirked. i laughed and skipped away into the kitchen, making my way towards the fridge to grab two redbulls.

i plopped down next to him, cuddling into his side while he popped open his can, as i did the same. "thank you for tonight, josh. i had a really great time spending some time together and getting the chance to know you" i said, blushing. "it's all my pleasure baby boy. i'm really glad you enjoyed it. i know i did." josh stated, giving his famous squinty smile.

we sat together, cuddling, for 30 minutes or so until josh announced that he had to leave. i walked him to the door. "don't leave me" i whined. "i'll be back again soon, sweetheart. maybe we can hang out tomorrow, yeah?" i nodded, wrapping my arms around his waist. he sighed into my hair and kissed it. i felt my cheeks warm up at the action. "i'll see you, kay? g'night tj, sweet dreams." he gave me a sad smile before stepping out of the house. i waved, "night joshy, thank you for everything. have a good night." he blew me a kiss as he started his car, waving one last time, pulling out of the parking lot and down the road.
