I was walking up to a door when I saw my friend Emmily come up, she was staying in the hotel room next door. We greeted each other and said hello when she asked if you were in and I said I thought so. She asked to come in and see you for a second when I opened the front door, so we walked in quietly when we noticed you were reclined and passed out in a chair. She complemented your suit then left. You started to wake up so I sat next to you and leaned down to cuddle up on your right side, asking you how you were. You kissed me and said you were exhausted but fine so we laid there and you kept kissing me. I didn’t want to get up because I could feel this was a fleeting moment.
You were driving and asked me to download this app onto your iPhone that was mentioned in a tech video I just watched on said iPhone, on YouTube, but I had issues finding it and tried looking for Google play which wasn’t happening.
Then I was at a table with a huge group of friends when I looked over at the table from my left and saw this other group, and this girl squiggling hateful things on poster board with a sharpie, things about me going to hell and other random stuff. I cant remember if it was for anything specific like being an atheist or goth or whatever, so I walked right up to the girl, took her sign, held it up in front of me and started reading it out loud. I then told her instead of writing it out with a sharpie she should be saying it loud and clear in the same way I demonstrated. She looked pissed, other people at her table looked angry, the kids at her table had the same hatred written on their faces. They looked like stereotypical backwoods Alabama Bible thumpers. The lady I stole the sign from started reciting Bible versus to me with the same disgusted facial expression, and all I could think was man I wish I’d read the book of Satan so I could recite some stuff back. I started laughing instead, pointing out how hateful they were and poking holes in their beliefs while walking between their groups table and my own. They got up and left, so I went back to their table to take this pretty vase but the flowers were wilting so I tossed them.
Our group left shortly after and I was looking for something outside by the table next to this large tree and something told me to remove this red brick, I wasn’t sure what it was. My friend Eros walked up, said good bye, and she left. It looked like mid afternoon and you walked up asking if I was ready to go. I was sitting on the table when you hugged me and I told you I paid mom off and didn’t have to deal with the student loans anymore. I was debt free, then remembered to add on that actually it happened last pay period. I almost cried because I couldn’t believe I was “there.” We decided to leave and you offered to drive saying, “Do you know how often I drive in the city?” And mentioned something about your Toyota Yaris and then my fancy Kia. When we left the tree and got to the car the sun had just set. I moved my luggage from the front passenger seat to the back and when the engine started my ipod shuffled to The Cure’s Fascination Street, then to Folsom Prison Blues. So you sang along to Jonny Cash while driving and holding my hand. I just held your hand tight, and sank into the seat, leaning onto your arm.
