I'm outside again

Surprise, surprise

But this time

This time I'm with Tarron

But this time

This time there's no Frisbee

I insisted on tossing the baseball

Tarron wanted to argue

But he deemed it not worthy

So here we are

Standing across from each other

Tossing the rough pouch of ball back and forth

Suddenly Tarron stopped

'I saw you talking to Colby the other day.' Tarron signed

'Yeah, and?' I asked

'Who were the other people you were talking to?' Tarron asked

'His roommates.' I explained simply

Tarron nodded

He tossed the ball again

I stopped

'Why?' I signed

'I was just wondering.' Tarron responded

I nodded

Tossing the ball back

This time he stopped

'What are they like?' He was curious

I chuckled

'One is very nice. He is polite and smiles very brightly. Sam. Another is funny. He always has jokes to crack. Corey. Elton is another roommate, but I haven't met him. He has a dog named Circa.' I explained

Tarron smiled

People he could feel safe around

I smiled

I liked it when Tarron dreamt of all the happiness he could have

We could have

'Colby invited us to swim.' I informed Tarron for the first time

'Really?' Tarron got excited

'Yeah.' I nodded

'Where?' He asked

I chuckled

'He has a pool.' I replied as I smiled

'No way.' Tarron's mouth was wide open

I chuckled some more

Only nodding

Tarron started to smile

I'm good at making Tarron smile
