summertime sadness

"I'm really gonna miss you when you go on tour." I said, kissing Dave's hand. "Jules, come with us!" He said, grinning. "You know I can't, Dave. I have a job here. I need to make a living. I can't just take off." I said. He sighed. "I know, I know. I'd just have alot more fun with you there."

I put my hand under his chin. "We still have a whole month together. It'll be ok." I whispered, kissing him. He put his hands on my warm face.

"I think I'll love you forever." He said, caressing my cheek. I blushed. "The feelings mutual." We had been lying in bed together all day, basking in each others company.

I think I'll go insane without him here. It'll be 5 whole months without him.

I shivered at the thought. "We should probably get up. Its 4." I laughed, stretching my arms. He snorted and pulled me back down. He moved some strands of hair and kissed my neck. "Dave.." I whimpered.

"W-we really need to get out." I stuttered as he bit and kissed my neck. "Fine." He groaned. I giggled and walked out into his living room.

"Ya know, we spend so much time at each others houses, we might as well live together." There wasn't a clear line between comedy and seriousness. "Are you serious?" I whispered. He nodded. I thought for a few moments.

"Make it official." I said. "What?" "Ask me officially." He chuckled and shook some hair from his face. "Juliet Corinne Kassel, will you do the honor of living with me?" He grinned, getting on one knee. I giggled and nodded.

He burst out into laughter while kissing me. "I love you." I smiled. "I love you more."

"That's interesting." Julia commented, pointing to her-no, our bookshelf. Her plants and,copies of classic literature like Moby Dick and The Catcher In The Rye were now accompanied by vinyls from Bad Brains and Black Flag.

"Sure is." You could now tell that a couple occupied the apartment. I tilted her chin up and kissed her softly. "I'm really glad this is happening." She whispered, smiling.

"I am too." I didn't really have alot to unpack, so we finished that pretty easily. Julia's closet full of clean and stylish clothing was now infested with my ratty band shirts. Her tiny shoe rack now had some of my vans on it.

I was all over her apartment. We both were. And I liked it. "Let's make dinner. I'm fucking starving." She suggested, well, ordered. I chuckled and followed her into the kitchen.

She started boiling some water. I retrieved spaghetti noodles from her cabinet and dumped them into the pit once the water was bubbling.

I then got the sauce and poured it into a pan to heat. She stirred the sauce while I leaned on the counter behind her. "One day we'll have mini Juliets and Dave's running around here." I said, half joking, half serious.

"In your dreams, grohl." She snorted. I tapped her lightly with my shoe. We ate dinner and talked. "Some day, I'll make you my husband." She smirked up at me as we washed dishes. "In your dreams, Kassel." I said, mocking her. She gasped and elbowed me.

"Our first night OFFICIALLY moved in." I called from her bed. She reappeared, wearing a black bra and panties. She grinned and kissed my cheek. "You look good." I whispered. She bit her lip and took my hand, trailing it up her body, then moving it to her clothed breasts.

I inhaled sharply.

The sex went on all night long.

We were lying in the sheets in each others arms. The sun started to rise. A swirl of colors poured in through the windows. "Its beautiful." He whispered against my hair. I nodded.

I felt happy as I laid there, admiring the sunrise with my love.
