For Him

10 of Hearts - Week 4

I felt a euphoric high for the past few days, ever since we went on that date. Waking up every day to remember the beautiful scene at Winter Wonderland with him holding my hand.

I was making breakfast while he was in the shower, continuously thinking about our date. I felt something slap my bottom, making me let out a squeal.

I turned around immediately to attack when he grabbed my arms and pulls me into his half-naked embrace.

"You scared me!" I pouted at him but I wasn't actually upset, and he knew that.

"Oh? I thought you'd like that."

"Mhhhh... I love it, maybe next time grab a little." I gave him a wink and he burst out into laughter. I knew how much it cracked him up when I tried to wink so I took that opportunity.

"You silly girl, is the food ready?'

"Yup, help me put it on plates please."

We ate breakfast and got ready to go the gym. Our schedule has been all kinds of messed up so this is the first time in weeks that we've been on a Monday.

We were holding hands, obviously, when I suddenly had a thought,

"Baby, why didn't you take pictures of our date to Winter Wonderland?"

He looked at me incredulously before smiling.

"I wouldn't want to take pictures when we're on a special date like that."

"Why?'

"Because we'd spend more time trying to take pictures rather than enjoy ourselves and be indulged in each other. plus there were too many lights everywhere so it wouldn't have been good."

I felt warm and fuzzy at his surprising response. I snuggled closer to his arm while walking, almost tripping the both of us up.

Arriving at the gym, we put our things in a locker and began another exciting gym session.

"We're gonna start with squats. Let's hope a spotting rack is available."

I nodded and we sped through the gym to luckily find a spotting rack empty. He made me start since I did a lower weight than him.

"Remember when you couldn't even squat properly? Now, look at you squatting around your own body weight."

I giggled and hit my head on the bar as I was walking under it. I patted my poor head and looked at him with a grin.

I started my warm up set of 50% my usual weight. It felt like a breeze but I knew that I'd be suffering soon. After warming up, I got into position and braced myself.

After doing my 8 reps, I put the bar back and looked at my dear. He had a very content smile which made me very happy.

We went through our session at the gym pretty quickly since we didn't have many sets. Nevertheless, we were still extremely tired to the point where I had to hold onto my dear for support while walking down the stairs.

I had work after so he dropped me off at the bakery I worked at and left me. Once I got to work, there was a big greeting of "How are you?" and "Hey gurl, how you doin'?"

I clocked in and started my shift feeling a bit tired yet very energetic.

A man walked into the shop with a big poster and what seemed to be a few fliers.

"Hi, can I please hang this up on your wall?" We had no problem with that and he expressed his gratitude by handing us two tickets.

"These are tickets to the circus for two adults to go for free. I hope you guys have fun, thank you again." He was in some sort of rush so right after he spoke he dashed out of the bakery.

"Hmmm..... The circus. Here, I'll give you one ticket and I'll have the other one. We can go with our boyfriends."

I smiled and accepted the ticket. Yes, another date we can go on.

That was probably the highlight of my day at work, it was fairly slow and not as busy as usual. So when I got home, the first thing I did was tell him about the circus.

"Can we go?" I felt like a little child asking to get ice cream. I looked up at him with my big doe eyes, trying to make him succumb if he didn't want to go.

"Yeah, why not? It sounds pretty good."

"Yay~!!!" I jumped around with joy and put our ticket away safely.

"When is it?"

"It's exactly next week, at around 7 I think. I'll find out when I go back to work."

"That's good. You're very excited?"

"It's my first time going! Is it your first too?"

"Nope, been a few times."

"Is it good?!"

"Yeah, it's pretty good. You'll definitely love it."

My excitement must have risen by 300%, there was no way I was gonna be able to calm down in the next few hours. But luckily he made me somewhat calm when he pulled me and sat me down on top of him on the sofa.

"Let's watch GoT right now before we eat dinner."

I nodded and sat patiently as he brought it up. 1/3 into the episode, I could feel him looking at me so I looked back at him with a confused smile. He just smiled even more and gave me a gentle peck before turning back to the screen. I felt a bit dazed but managed to regain focus on the episode.

Two dates in the space of a few weeks felt so unnatural since we live together. It makes me feel like a little girl again, going out with him for the first few months.

I couldn't stop smiling throughout the whole day so when I was writing on this week's card, I felt overwhelmingly happy.

Whatever it takes

'Cause I love the adrenaline in my veins

I do whatever it takes

'Cause I love how it feels when I break the chains

Whatever it takes

You take me to the top I'm ready for

Whatever it takes

He makes me so happy that I sometimes don't know what to do with myself.

I love my dear very very much.
