I was sitting on the couch just sitting. Just staring. Just waiting. I didn't even know what I was waiting for. Nothing I guess. I just didn't want to do anything. Alfie and I were in a fight and that had drained all my energy away. Sitting was what I was best at right now.
After my little conflict within myself were I said outloud I wanted to marry Alfie I had quieted down a lot. I thought about it and I realised what I had said was true but that I must never tell anyone. Not for a while at least. And definitely not whilst Alfie and I were in a fight.
I didn't move whilst I sat. I just stared at the wall for about an hour. Picturing and remembering all the fun times and good memories Alfie and I had had together. For some odd reason I felt like this was the last fight we were going to have. As in we weren't going to be together anymore. That scared me. I hoped and prayed that it wasn't true.
An hour had passed and for some reason I picked up my phone and went onto twitter. The past few days I had stayed away from the hubbub of twitter as it just stressed me out, what with all the fights and everything.
I was about to close out of the app and set it back down on the table to return to my staring of the wall when I saw a tweet from Alfie. I looked closer and read the text.
"Im incredibly lucky"
I was confused at first before I saw the link beneath the text. I clicked on it and the message expanded to show a black and white gif of myself. And for some reason I couldn't explain my eyes started to water. Out of joy that is.
My gut wasn't right. This wasn't the last fight Alfie and I were going to have. For some reason that made me happy. Having fights was part of a good relationship. Without them people would be no where. There wouldn't be growth. So the fact that we were going to have more made me ecstatic.
I went to Alfie's contact and called him right away, tears still in my eyes. He answered on the first ring. We said at the exact same time,
"I love you."
