The Bats of Love
It's always like that. The morning after is touched with longing and little shivers as the mind plays over what went before. If the shower was skipped, there's a little touch of his scent that lingers, invisible hot fingerprints still on the skin.
He didn't wear cologne, I don't think, but he smelled good. I think it was his deoderant, and it was familiar, but not in a bad way. Just fresh and masculine.
I shouldn't fall in love, but I want to talk to him. There's still so much I don't know, want to know. If I don't know him, how can I possibly love him? If I don't love him, how can I possibly ... The previous four were prefaced with weeks, months or years of knowledge, so how can I start from complete zero with this one and feel comfortable?
I wasn't initially remarkably impressed, and we have no common friends, only common places. But after four dates and as many phone calls, I feel that familiar flutter in my belly. Eager anticipation. Can PA grow to a high interest level?
I don't want to wait for another day to go by to see him, but there are things I can do tonight and my very cherished independence shouldn't be neglected. I'm making it on my own for the first time in my life, digging myself out of a hole alone, a hole dug by and for two. I don't want to waste this time falling for a silly boy (Boys Are Stupid, Throw Rocks at Them), but but but...
His mouth, the set of his teeth when he talks: they remind me of JSH.
