It was the 28th now, a whole day has passed, and we were still together.

This felt different though. Even if I had my doubts, and had a hard time trusting him, it felt like this time the relationship had more substance.

It was just so annoying how it had to be a Saturday, I won't be able to see him.

Since I'm a lazy ass, I refused to get up and leave the house, and that left me with nothing to do but text him all day.

***

We were never the kind of people to text just for the sake of texting, what we said to each other actually means something, and they aren't just conversation fillers. But sometimes, it comes to a point where we get all sappy and sweet.

Me: Thanks for being there for me when no one else was, even when I'm super annoying. For making me believe that love isn't cruel... And for being the best thing that ever happened to me, despite all out problems. :>

Best: No... Thank you for still accepting me :)

Me: You know I always would :)

Best: But I screwed up so bad, and yet you still accepted me :*

Me: Of course, I couldn't have chosen otherwise.

Best: I love you!!!!

Me: I love you too, you already know that :> :))

Best: I wanna kiss you and hug youuu

Me: Then do xD

Best: It's a weekend!!!

We talked more, till we both fell asleep and I was immensely happy. We actually lasted a whole day!

***

I was dying of boredom in a kids party (for my niece's fist birthday), and as ever, he could be counted on to alleviate dull moments.

Best: Tomorrow... Hold my hand xD :">

Isn't that adorable? He uses that blushing emoticon!

Me: Haha maybeeeeeeeeee, if the opportunity presents itself.

Best: Kiss me! xD

Me: In school? Are you making demands? xD

Best: Yeah, in school, it's allowed.

Me: Yeah, sure "allowed" xD

Best: Nyahaha

Me: Bad influence... Tsk tsk...

Best: Haha. Tomorrow, okay?? :">

Me: Maaayyybeeeeeee

Best: It should be a yes xD

Me: Hmm... Nyahaha xD

Best: :">

Me: You're really a bad influence xD

Best: You wanna kiss me anyway :P

Me: Really?? I do??? xD

Best: Is that even a question?! xD

Me: Yeah, I do xD :>

Best: I love you!!! :*

Me: I love you tooo

I then sent a group message about how I wanted those cute tumblr relationships, and I was thankful that he made it possible.

Best: Hahaha anything for you! :*

Me: Haha xD So sweet again, I'mma fall over :> :))

Best: Hahaha, be careful, but it's okay, I'm here to catch you :">

Me: Yeah, I should be careful. Trusting too much would only get you hurt.

Best: Nooo... I'mma be here to catch you, so no one would get hurt

Me: Okayyy :))) :>

Best: :">

Me: Haha, the feels though xD

Best: :"> Ayieeeee hahaha xD

Me: It's not just me :P

Best: Of course xD :>

I played two games, my aunt dragging me. And I won, of course. I mean, I was playing against toddlers and seven year olds.

Me: I got stuffed toysssss :)

Best: Huh? How?

Me: I'm in a party right? I won games :)

Best: Oh yeahh, good for you! :*

Me: Not really, I pity the kids

Best: Why? You're a kid as well xD

Me: The oldest kids here are like seven year olds xD

Best: Exactly, just like you!!!

Me: So I'm seven now??

Best: Yupp!!

Me: Pedo!!! I'm like half your age!

Best: I'm so bad, I'm pedo :( xD

Me: It's okay, you're you xD

Ever since that day, we considered me a seven year old and often made jokes about it.

***

Days went on, and although I was thankful that we were together, I was usually irate, due to his constant flirting with other girls, especially with Lei.

I couldn't get mad at him about it, thinking that I better settle for it, since he was mine anyway, even when I didn't have his attention.

Also, I've heard numerous times that it was her who would initiate the canoodling, and not Jaz.

People from Ruby would constantly tell me to break it off with him, to find someone better, but the friends I had there would constantly remind me what I've gone through to get him; besides, I wouldn't give up that easily, there's hope for him yet.

In lieu of the doubt I "should" be having, I still trusted him completely at that time.

Weeks passed, and as unbelievable as it may sound, we lasted a whole month.

A whole fucking month!

Oh. My. God.

Being the kind of person I am, I prepared for it, unfortunately our monthsary wasn't a school day, so we wouldn't be seeing each other, but at least I'd be able to give it to him the day after, October 28th.

I wrote numerous letters and whatnot, all stating how grateful and happy I am that we lasted thus long.

He treated it like it was any other regular day, and I let it slide since we were new, and he probably didn't feel as thrilled as I was about us.

Oh, well...

Only a few knew about our relationship at that time, and I was somewhat glad.

At least no one would be shoving his inattentiveness in my face.

Besides, the less people that knew, meant that less people would be trying to break us apart.

Hope you'd still be reading, even with all my late updates. Nonetheless, enjoy! This is getting harder to write, but I'd try my best and do it anyway.

Head's pounding with a bloody headache, so toodles!
