today i wore long sleeves. i wanted to see you again today, but i didn't want you to think i was a freak. what if you leave me, like everyone else did?

today i decided to text you for the first time ever.

john- hi alex
alex- who is this
john- i gave you my number at the bar you dumb fuck
alex- OH hi john!
john- hi
alex- so tell me more about yourself
john- i like turtles
john- im from south carolina
john- i like long sleeves
john- what about you
alex- i like writing
alex- well my uber driver just dropped me off at the bar
john- shit im coming
alex- ok cya
john- see ya

today i arrived at the bar. i saw you there. this time you didn't bring that girl with you. you smiled as i walked over to you. you said my freckles were cute. i said thanks, but inside i disagreed.

today i got drunk. you stayed sober to take care of me, like you did with that girl. you took me home to your apartment. you gave me 5 bottles of water.

today i stayed at your apartment the entire night. my father will go out of his mind if i ever come back. if i don't, he'll hunt me down. i'm scared of what will happen tomorrow.
