date (book #1)

entry #4

it was my turn today

to show how much i loved you,

so i prepared a lot.

i was anxious to say the least

but i felt like i knew you inside out.

i knew you loved pizza

so that's what i made

with a side of french fries too.

all made with love

and from me to you.

i knocked on your door

with basket in hand

ready to take you to my special place.

you opened the door

and looked shocked to see me

but smiled and let me in.

i told you my plans and you interlocked our hands

and so we set off to my house.

behind the yard was a small hole,

small enough for us to go through.

i dragged you in and you clutched me tight

as you fumbled around with me.

i brought you too this giant rock

where i laid the blanket down.

the rock was flat and free to sit

and we ate till we couldn't stand.

for what seemed like hours, were just a few minutes

and everything had been cleared.

i told you the story of the rock

and how i had found it

and why it meant so much to me.

you really listened to what i said

and it was sweet of you so.

no one really ever listens to me

just because i was small.

smaller than them

and smaller in importance

was what they mostly said.

but you made me feel bigger now

and of more importance than them.

we starred into each other's eyes

as our faces drew closer to each others'.

we closed our eyes and tilted our heads

as our second kiss was then

but suddenly the bushes ruffled

and we pulled apart quickly.

i was scared and hid behind you

i squealed without a care.

you took a stick and poked the bush

yet it was only a small puppy there.

there wasn't a collar

which was quite odd.

but i fawned over it so.

you pouted a little because you felt

that you were being forgotten.

your jealously was cute to me

as i pinched your cheeks and cooed at you.

"aww is someone jealous?"

was what i said

just to see your reaction.

you pouted again and said to me

"no i'm not, i'm just sad"

so i engulfed you in a hug

that i don't think you were expecting

and buried my face in your chest.

i then took the puppy and raised it up

and asked

"could we keep it please?"

you gave in to my pouty lips

and placed a chaste kiss to it.

we decided to name it cookie then

because it really looked like oreos.

i took a selfie of us all

and thus our family became one.

it was you, me and cookie then,

all joined into one.

you took him home at the end of the day

because god knows what would happen if i did.

and you told me you couldn't guarantee it would live

unless i came over every day to check on it.

i wondered if you had planned this just

so i would come over.

regardless of that, i agreed anyway

and wished you all the best.

i loved cookies way too early

because i got emotionally attached.

though that may be the case with cookie,

i was attached to you too.

i love you so and i hope you know

that i never will forget

the first time we met

that led to that

and thus now here we are

standing on my tippy toes

as i struggled to kiss your lips

because you are way too tall for me

but maybe that's what i loved best.
