we will refer to him as velvet. becuase life seems much more colorful when you give your freinds allias. It reads back like a contemporary fairytale.
Velvet. Spurred from the band The Velvet Underground, and Nico, who was named Nico after a particular lover, reminds me of Velvet, who I named after Nico herself. I fell in love with her voice, and with the name itself.
Velvet came from darkened skies, asked if after a bad day he could come , and so he did. Following as quitly as a shadow, I wondered what was wrong with him. He told me , him and his significant other had broken up. I felt awful and treated him to greesy Chinesse take out. Played lotr like a host serves sliced chesse at a Dalton party and sat across from him playing numbers.
Velvet put on my uniform skirt and then sat back beside me.
" hey. if I do something i've been meaning to do since we met would you be pissed?"
I knew what he implied. I got up. Went into the kitchen and gave him a glass of water, staring intently at the screen as if nothing had just happened. We sat, looking for band names.
Potential?

Well. Maybe not. We gossiped. I called Dennis,I wanted to hear his voice,and his birthday is today. I no longer feel like the higher equation. I also might sell Velvet my guitar for $100 bucks , which I paid 100 bucks for. Shhh.
p.s. totally unrelated.
booze not bombs i say.
