fun. - “The Gambler”
P came over yesterday and brought me dinner: frozen edamame, sushi, two-buck Chuck and grapes from Trader Joe’s along with a homemade salad. A sweet gesture when I was busy with homework… even though I spent the rest of the night and this morning being unproductive. 1am pizza, falling asleep to Batman Beyond, and him trying to put his finger in my nose (apparently, I woke up, smiled, and said, “Babe, why are you trying to pick my nose?” before immediately falling back asleep).
I was sitting on his lap in front of my computer before we left for pizza when the lyrics, “You’re the love of my life,” came up. He looked me in the eye and said, “You are the love of my life.” A kiss and a tender moment shared that I will carry in my heart for a long time.
At only 19, this is my first love. I know it. For the rest of my life, I’ll remember P and remember him fondly, even if we aren’t together or married or in each other’s lives. I’m young and naive and immature, but I know this much.
Simple moments, people. Simple moments.
