We don't talk anymore, We don't talk anymore ,We don't talk anymore ,Like we used to do"I've got a package that needs to be signed" a new voice said from behind the counter a man in a UPS top and shorts stood behind my office counter, he had carmel colored hair and amber eyes.
"Alrighty" I say grabbing his pad that needed to be signed,fine I'll admit it he's kinda cute, actually this isn't the first time I've thought to myself that he's cute, this is a somewhat normal routine, he would come by, have me scribble down my name for a package, and than he'd leave.
I scribbled my last name down 'chekov' I heard him giggle and I know why he's giggling
"I never noticed this until now... Lauren" he says pointing to my last name, I bite my lip and try and hide my giant smile
"Yes, if your thinking of the star trek character you're right, THAT is how you spell and sound my last name " I say smiling and biting my cheek and looking at his name tagWe don't love anymore,What was all of it for, Oh, we don't talk anymore, like we used to do...
"Mitch" I say and he looks down at his name tag
"Hey I- was wondering if you wanted to go on a date? sometime- anytime that fits with you're schedule?" he says and I feel my entire face go red and I immediately feel a grin grow on my face
"of course" I say and pull a sticky note off of the pad and write down my number
"you can call me when you have an idea and we can talk about if it interferes with my schedule" I say and hand him the sticky note
"I'm looking forward to hearing from you Mr.-"
"Hughes, Mitch Donnel-Ralph Hughes" he says rubbing his neck
" Lauren Bee Chekov" I say and feel my cheeks go red and Mitch opens his mouth to say something
"Yes, like the insect" I say smiling shylyI just heard you found the one, you've been looking You've been looking for
" I like it, it's different" He says before taking my hand and kissing it
"so cliché" I say
"I will talk to you later" he says emphasizing on the 'I'
"okay Mitchell" I say and I see him roll his eyes
It's about 6:30 when I get home from work, by then I have two missed calls from an anonymous number and I can only assume it is Mitch, I ring his number and after the fourth ring I assume he is having dinner because, you know it's prime dinner time. I am about to end the call when I hear his voice
"Hey, sorry about that" he says sounding exasperated and I hear someone laughing
"am I calling at a bad time?" I ask
"oh no, my roommate STOLE my phone and was running around with it while I chased HIM" he says and I hear his roommate howling with laughter I try to hide a rising giggle
"you're laughing too aren't you?" Mitch asks and I burst out laughing
"no-no-no I'm not" I say in between laughterI wish I would have known that wasn't me
Cause even after all this time I still wonder, Why I can't move on,
Just the way you did so easily
