i begun packing up my things. it was approximately a week since i wrote briar my letter, i hope she came through because after everything we've been through i know she's genuinely a nice person and she would help me with that.

after finishing packing my things, i got ready to head off to work. i worked in this mine thing, it was really weird but it made me and my family good money so i can't really complain.

i walked over to my little area and was greeted by one of my few friends here, jesse, "hey man. it's been a few days since i last seen you," he smiled slightly as i sat down.

"yeah, i've been busy putting some stuff together. i'm planning a trip home so i've just been ironing out all of the details," i smiled as i begun working.

"a trip home? why? i thought you hated it there," he continued to do his work.

"i did.. but.."

"but there's a girl?" he laughed a little.

"what? a girl? no," i looked at him, confused. he wasn't in my head was he?

"oh shit, there definitely is," he set everything down and turned to me, "details. now."

i sighed, giving in, "alright but.. nothing's going to come of it. her and i. we're just friends, maybe not even that, nothing will ever happen."

"i don't care about your insecurities myles. just tell me about her," he laughed as i rolled my eyes.

"well.. she's beautiful. like actually perfect. she has amazing golden blonde hair, beautiful blue eyes. they remind me a lot of the ocean.. not to mention her smile. oh gosh, that smile. just think about it makes me smile," i smiled as he burst out laughing once again.

"you're really in love or something, who even talks like that anymore?"

"i knew i shouldn't have told you," i sighed.

he shook his head, "no no no it's okay. i won't tease you. it's cute.. does she feel the same way back?"

i shrugged slightly, "i have no clue honestly. it's been like a year since we last talked."

"why don't you write her a sappy love note like what you just said to me, then give it to her when you're home. she would definitely be wrapped around your finger after that."

i laughed, "no, that's a stupid idea."

we laughed and continued to talk about briar for a while. it was nice to just talk to someone about my feelings.. maybe if all goes well on my trip things could go in a good direction with her?
