Song: Numbers by The Cab 

"Surrounded by numbers, numbers, but you're the only one."

****

The date wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

He's funny, sweet, and not all that bad looking.

He reminds me of you, which is a good and bad thing.

When he first walked in, I told him that I wasn't looking for anything new. You know what he said??

"Then I'll have to convince you that looking for something new isn't bad."

That's what he said. Almost immediately I was fascinated by him, and what made him so convinced of making me believe again.

But he's no you, nobody is you.

So I told him to go ahead, and he started to talk to me about random things, which was interesting, because we talked for hours about the most random things ever, yet we were content with each other. I haven't felt this way since you, and we all know how that ended. So, we talked, and talked, and talked, and for the most part, I felt normal.

After the date, he took me home, and he kissed me.

And, for once, I felt hope.
