"I will light a match this morning
So I won't be alone"
~Pearl Jam

It was a beautiful day, Eddie and I were gonna go out and have a picnic. I couldn't help but think about a particular song that Eddie and his band wrote. The lyrics were beautiful and held so much emotion.

He meant so much to me. I stated off into the distance thinking about how I wound up where I was.

    "Sapphire, you alright?" Eddie asked with a smile.

     "Yeah I'm fine In really happy." I told him with a smile.

     Things felt almost like they shouldn't be real but they were.

      "Well I'm glad cause this is supposed to be about us." He spoke smiling the whole time.

      "Good." I said with a grin as I started eating, everything was so simple and that's what made it so great.

       This was just the beginning of awesome date for us. We had our issues and for the most part were working through them.

     "What do you want to do when we're done here?" Eddie asked

       "Maybe watch some kind of movie. " I said as I was getting close to being done eating.

      "Sounds like fun to me." He said with a smile.

    *         *        *

    The picnic was over and we were back home about ready to start a movie. It was some dumb comedy movie that we both agreed looked pretty good. Anytime spent with him just doing nothing but being us was time well spent.

     The movie started and from start to finish it was a real gutbuster. I was glad that we had chosen a comedy movie. It was maybe three thirty in the afternoon when the movie was finally over. I was actually kind of tired and I didn't know why.

    "Babe, I'm tired, I think I'm gonna go lay down." I said giving him a small smile.

     "Alright, I'll come with you. A nap actually sounds like a great idea." Eddie said as he grabbed my hand and we stood up heading off to the bedroom. I laid down on the bed and Eddie beside me.

     For a while I just laid there not sure if I actually was tired but soon sleep came over me.

*           *           *

     When I opened my eyes again and looked at the clock. It was five in the morning. I closed my eyes again because it wasn't time to get up. I slept for maybe another two hours before I decided I needed to stay awake.

    I went down stairs feeling refreshed and hungry so I decided I needed to make breakfast. I didn't want anything too fancy so I stuck with a quesadilla. I was sleepily eating my breakfast when Eddie came into the kitchen. It's not that I was tired so much as it was I was trying to wake up.

     "Did you sleep good?" Eddie asked as he started looking for food himself.

      "Yeah I did, what about you?" I asked him smiling slightly.

      "So did I,  that was some nap we took wasn't it." Eddie said laughing lightly.

        "Yeah it was." I said smiling brightly.

   
   That moment made me realize that Eddie was exactly what I wanted and what I had. Just like his lyrics he was special and I wanted to be around him and nothing he could ever do would make a difference in the way that I felt about him.

A/N: Sorry for the short chapter but my mouth is killing me but I still at least wanted to try and update. 😢
