••I don't know when y'all are reading this but it's Mother's Day today while I'm writing this so happy Mother's Day!••

Just staring into Tyler's eyes is an amazing feeling. My entire body just relaxes, and I feel soothed.

I end up breaking our deep stare by blinking, and starting to get out of the car. I look back at Tyler, and he looks disappointed. He quickly hides his disappointment by turning away, and getting out from his side of the car.

I don't know what I'm feeling with Tyler, but it's very good.

I know that I haven't known Josh for very long, but his company gives me comfort.

I brought him to a coffee shop.

I notice that after contently staring into his eyes, he blinks and looks away, turning to open to the door. I can't lie, I am a bit disappointed that he looked away from me.

His stare is just so calming.

I look down a bit, but then notice that he turns back to look at me so I turn and open my side of the door.

"Ok, so here we are. This is my favorite coffee shop in all of Columbus Ohio. Its possibly the best coffee shop that I've ever been to."

"Well thank you captain obvious. I had no idea that this was a coffee shop. I honestly thought that this was another record store."

"yea ok sure; anyway lets go inside."

I walked into the coffee shop, with Josh close by. I go up to the counter. We are the only people in the coffee shop, so there isn't a line to wait in. I order a medium iced coffee with cream and no sugar.

Josh orders after me, and he orders an espresso.

We take our seats at a little two-person table by the window. the window looks over the sidewalk and the street.

For a little bit, I look out at all the people walking by the coffee shop, some entering and others having their own places to go in town. I also observe all of the passing cars. Some of them are bright colors, such as blue or red, most others are black white and grey.

Josh decides to break the silence.

I notice Tyler looking out at all of the people passing by.

"So, Tyler, tell me a little bit about yourself, I'm curious." about one or two seconds after I start talking to him, he realizes I'm speaking, and he snaps out of his daydream. My words disrupting his stare into the outside world.

"Well I'm not a very interesting person" I doubt that. "I live here alone, Im 23, my parents also live in Ohio but in another town. They let me have the family house. I have a few siblings, but none of them more interesting than the next. I have a dog, if you didn't already know from when he was jumping up on my counter trying to eat my lunch. What about you Josh? Tell me about yourself."

"Um, I'm also 23, I moved here from California recently if you didn't already know, I only went to two years of college which didn't please my parents but I just really didn't enjoy it. I moved from California because I wanted to be in a small town, where everything is calmer. I'm also bi-sexual which I don't know if you needed to know that but now you do" ok josh settle down a little bit. "and thats about it for me."

"Interesting," and I just ruined everything somehow. Great."I'm also into guys."

right when those words were leaving his mouth, I started, and Im still having, a party inside of my head. Thank god we actually have a chance. Wait, but maybe he has a boyfriend already. Oh God.

"Are you seeing anyone?" Tyler says. Phew, I thought I was going to have to ask.

"No not at the moment. How about you? Are you seeing anyone currently?"

"Nope."

He gives me a little smirk, and I give him one right back.

Yes.
