I arrive at Joes, and knock on his door. To my surprise, he answers the door shirtless.

"Oh!" I say, surprised. "Hey, Joe!"

"Hey babe!" Joe beams. "Come in!"

I walk in, and give him a hug straight away. We then walk into the lounge room with my head on his shoulder, and his arm around my waist.

As we go to sit on the couch, Joe throws on a shirt, disappointing me. He looks good shirtless.

We cuddle together for a good ten minutes. My ear is on his chest, listening to the constant beat of his heart. His heart beat soothes me.

"Wanna watch that movie now, babe?" His chest vibrates with his voice.

"Can we still cuddle?" I ask.

"Of course. Wanna watch a comedy?" Joe suggests.

"I love comedy," I sigh. "How about Haunted House 2?"

"I love that movie!" Joe says in an excited tone.

I giggle, as he turns the TV on. He sets up Netflix, and puts on said movie.

By the end, we're in tears of laughter. Our cheeks hurt from smiling so much, and our stomachs hurt from laughing so much.

"Confession time!" Joe declares, as I giggle. "You go first, tiny gay tattooed vegan man,"

I playfully punch Joe, as he pretends to be hurt.

"What do I confess?" I ask.

"Anything,"

Well, that helped.

I let out a huff in thought. All the things I could confess, I don't want him knowing yet, or he already knows.

I guess the safest thing to confess is probably the last time I self harmed. Joe seems very supporting of me when it comes to that. Not supportive as he likes me doing it, but as he'll help me stop.

"The night before we went on our date," I start.

Joe looks me directly in the eyes. He looks like he's very interested. Hopefully, this won't hurt him.

"I, uh, well," I stutter. "I self harmed."

I look down in shame. I hate admitting it to anyone. But I hate it most when I'm admitting it to the man that I love.

"Baby," Joe chokes.

His voice cracked on the verge of tears as he spoke. It broke my fucking heart.

"You gotta stop. For me. Please." He begs, holding me tight as he kisses my temple.

"Okay," I squeak, tears forming in my eyes.

Joe holds me tighter as a response. We stay in each others warm, tender embrace as my tears slowly stop.

"Your turn," I whisper.

"Okay," Joe smiles.

He breaks the hug and position him on the sofa so we're facing each other cross-legged. He looks me in the eyes with a big, toothy smile.

"So, the record store," he starts.

"What about it?" I ask.

"How many times have you seen me in there, or walking past?" He asks.

I furrow my eyebrows. Where is he going with this?

"A few, I guess. Why?"

Joe smiles at me, and looks down. He shakes his head, muttering, 'don't worry'.

"God dammit, Joseph! Tell me!"

Joe laughs, as he looks me in my eyes. He takes in a deep breath, and let's it out slowly.

"A few years ago, I broke up with my boyfriend, Patrick. Music has always been a big part of my life, so the first thing I done was go to the record store. I bought a bunch of different records. David Bowie, The Who, Good Charlotte, Blink-182, Green Day, Misfits, a bunch of different shit. Anyways, I chose out a bunch of records, merchandise, heaps of shit, and you were there. You had longer hair than now. Shoulder length hair. I knew it was you because of the name badge. You also had no beard and a lip piercing. I looked different, too. I didn't have as many tattoos, and I didn't have an afro. You wouldn't have realized it was me. I went into the store to buy records thinking that I'd never get over Patrick, so I'd just drown out the pain with music, booze and weed. But then I saw you. You made me believe in love at first sight. And its crazy, because when I seen you for the first time, you gave me the same feelings Patrick did in two years of dating and eight years of being friends. Since that day, I would either walk past the store or go into it just so I could see you. I done it every day. And Patrick is actually your boss, so it was really awkward as well. He'd see me and just glare at me. But I wanted to see you, even if you didn't know me. You made my day. And every time I bought something, you were so kind, and you smiled at me. I told my friend, Tyler, and he thought I was stalking you, but I think it was more like, admiring from afar. And then when I found out that you had put in the wrong Kik name, and it was you, I'm not gonna lie, I was so excited. It felt good knowing that you knew who I was, and you wanted to talk to me. And when you agreed to a date.. I died. So I guess what I'm saying is; I love you so fucking much, Andrew. And I have for a long time."

My mouth drops in disbelief. I couldn't believe that Joe has felt that way towards me for so long.

"R-really?" I stutter.

Joe nods, and looks down with that cute smile of his. He lightly giggles, as I blush. I lean over to kiss him on the cheek, but that fails when Joe grabs my cheek, and pulls me to his lips.

"I love you, Andrew." Joe smiles.

"I love you too, Joseph."
