So, today has been awesome. Got up and had a great morning with both of my families. On the way home, it started raining. Then the sun came out and it was still raining. I could smell the fresh scent of it through the air vents of a really old Chevy Caprice. Came home and ate some awesome leftovers from the collaborative efforts with my stepdad involving beer, bratwurst, and a grill. Then I went out to karaoke with two of my favorite people. This girl is amazing. She has a wonderfully complacent and embracing outlook on things, and she's incredibly intelligent. She speaks French, and she has this smile that I can't pry my eyes away from until it's off her face. And, for the first time in nearly a year, I have a very deep attraction to her that isn't inherently sexual. Don't get me wrong, she has an incredibly sensual aura, but it's very, very subtle. She manages to be very classy without being stuck up. So, we went back to her place after karaoke, played some guitar, and she took me home. The whole time I was aching to kiss her, but I didn't, and I'm glad. That might have made things seem more earthly. I don't have the words in me to describe how it felt to be around her alone, which I'd never done. We've hung out lots and lots of times, but always with other friends. I felt so at ease, as if I were with someone I spent hours of every day with.
And then, as I started to write this, she calls me as she's on her way home to tell me she helped out this couple who were stranded by the side of the road, and she wanted to tell me because she "knew I'd do the same thing." So we talked for another few minutes, and there was a silence before we said good night that was pregnant with things unsaid. I could feel her wanting to say more, and I nearly had an aneurism holding back. I hope she's thinking about me and I really hope she's figuring out that that dazzling smile of hers is stuck on her face. Wow...yeah, wow.
