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
