Elise has been living across from me for eleven days now, and each day she brings more and more happiness into my life. I now have a reason to move on with life.
I feel like a better person when I'm around Elise.
We have talked seven times and each time, I fall more and more in love with her. Shes utter perfection, I long for her. I will make her her mine, I wont stop until shes forever by my side.
Nothing will stand in my way, NOTHING.
I check the time; 11:57. I run tjoo the front door, Elise comes out to garden at 12:00pm every day. I sit on my porch and watch her, she suspects nothing, she thinks I'm reading the newspaper.
I always thought gardening was pointless, a waste of valuable time. That is until I knew Elise gardened.
I peeked over the top of the newspaper at her, she was crouching down planting some kind of purple flower.
I smiled and stared at her, shes so amazing. She is the definition of perfection, beautiful perfection. I let out a small sigh, as a thought crosses my mind, what if she doesn't like me?
"Then I'll make her like me," I whisper under my breath.
She turned around and gave me a questioning look, "did you say something?"
"Uh...no...no I didn't say anything." I stuttered.
"Oh, ok then." She replied turning around and finished planting the purple flower; I watched every hand movement intently. When she finally finished, she turned to me, "Hey Jay, i was wondering if you like maybe want to like help me garden one day..." She trailed off.
Wait. Did Elise just ask me to hang out with her? No. I must have heard wrong. But then I noticed her gazing questioningly at me. "Ya... that would be great...when?"
"Um," she stood up and started walking towards my porch, "when is good for you?"
"Whenever, I'm not really a busy guy." I chuckled.
"Well what about... Saturday? At...um lets say...about 4:00?"
"Thats sounds great," I smiled at her.
She smiled back, "great, see you on Saturday." She did a short, half wave, turned around, and slowly started walking back to her garden.
I watched her walk away, and, for some strange reason, I felt like I was losing her...but shes not even mine.
