"What's up with you?" I say as Blake sits on the curb next to me, he laughs to himself and rests his head on my shoulder
"I made a mistake" he sits down next to me wide eyed
"Oh what did you do this time? Please say you didn't accidentally spill a drink on a girl again" I reply remembering the time he spilled an entire beer on a girls white dress when he was trying to flirt with her.
"Nope worse"
"Oh god"
"I went to a random persons party and I saw cake and as you do I ate some and turns out it was a space cake" he says in a quiet tone
"How many pieces did you have"
"I can't remember" he furrows his eyebrows and puts his head in his hands
"Blake oh my god" I burst out laughing
"What's so funny, lil? " Blake asks, hiccups interrupting his every other word. He tries to catch his breath but is failing at it.
"You" I poke his nose and watch his eyes go crossed, I laugh louder tilting my head back and clapping my hands
"We need food right now" he quickly jumps up to his feet and starts walking off alone "Blake wait for me" I run over to him
His pupils are massive even though they blend in with his brown eyes. He speed walks to the nearest chip shop
"Hurry up lil, I understand your legs are smaller than mine but we need to hurry" he opens the door and looks at the menu which is on the walls
"Okay I would like 2 large chips, no vinegar just salt and a cheese burger" He greedily asks the woman behind the counter
"Do you want anything Lillie? Wait we can share" he responds to himself an lets out a little giggle
That poor boy must of eaten so much space cakes because he's sitting there laughing at the word 'lil' because it's my name shortened and I am short in height.
"Thank you" he takes the bag off the lady and quickly throws a £20 note in her direction and yells at her to keep the change because he likes her hat.
We make our way to the nearest bench and he opens the bag and takes the wrapping off the food and quickly takes a handful of chips and starts eating them
"This is the best thing I've ever eaten" he stuffs his face making his eyes roll back in delight
"You say that every time you have take out food" I reply watching him act like an animal, the wind is blowing his hair in his face but he doesn't even care because he's in his own little world.
"Well it's amazing"
After an hour of him feeding me a burger and him stumbling around we sit outside the apartment building in the fresh air.
"Aren't stars mad?" Blake gazes up into the sky
"Yeah I guess"
"They're like sparkly and shit" his eyes squint because he's trying to get a better look even though squinting makes it harder to see.
"I think it's time for us to go inside" I stand up watching him beginning to doze off, he nods standing up, tiredly smiling.
He wraps an arm around my waist to keep his balance, he mumbles words into my ear about how he regrets not eating the last few chips earlier
I unlock the front door and he runs straight into the kitchen to get a drink because he has dry mouth.
"Is this your first time ever having a space cake?" I ask lying down on the couch, I've had space cakes in the past but I've never acted like him I usually just sit down and vibe to some music.
"I was gonna lie and say no to seem cool but honestly yeah I've never had one in my life" he stands up staring at the tv playing colourful cartoons.
The tv is playing amazing world of gumball and he's having a giggle fit, i laugh because I've never seen him giggle like that before but then he laughs because I'm laughing then i laugh more because he's laughing
"Okay you need to chill out because you're going to have a heart attack" I look up at him as he sniffles
"Can you cuddle me?" He mumbles, changing the tone from him previously cry laughing, he's fiddling with his T-shirt as he looks down at me laying on the couch.
"What?" I ask not knowing if I heard him correctly, he wants a cuddle? I swear he said that unless I'm hearing things
"I need cuddles" Blake groans watching me lie down on the couch
"Blake" I move further back into the cushions trying to make space for us, hopefully we will both be able to fit on here but he will probably fall off during the night.
"Please it's not weird" his lips pouts die to him being tired and stoned
"Okay cmon" I say patting the spot next to me and he lays down pushing his body against mine
"Can I be little spoon?" He quietly asks, my heart melts at his adorable voice and him wanting to be held
"Of course" I reply, most men wanna seem masculine and be the big spoon but men need to be the little spoon sometimes just to feel loved.
I reach around his waist. I feel his chest rumble in laughter as he takes my hand in his, I gently rest my head against his shoulder, it's mad how I'm cuddling a 6 foot man and we weirdly fit well together.
"Your hands are so tiny" he takes my hands and starts messing around with my fingers
"So so so little, the smallest hands I've ever seen" he giggles to himself bending my fingers into a fist shape then putting them back in their normal straight position
"I think someone needs to go asleep" I smile using my spare hand to run my fingers through his hair and gently massage his scalp to make him feel relaxed
After a few minutes he dozes off like that, wrapped in my arms feeling so safe and loved.
