I remember this night so very well. I was laying in bed with , I was nineteen years old, and her phone started going off on her dresser while she is asleep next to me. It kept vibrating like crazy, so I grabbed it and the text on the front of it said, “I miss your lips, I can’t wait to see you next month.”
So I just left, I just left. I got in my car and drove back to the RavenCrest house. I don’t remember if anybody but you were home. I didn’t have a home at that time. My apartment was infested in fleas, my best friend and roommate had given up his life for hard drugs, and my girlfriend was cheating on me. I slept on the couch that night. I know it had to be a little late at night, probably eleven o’clock or later. You were home and up, I told you everything that happened, and you listened, and you were so interested, and for some weird reason, you really, really, cared. You fixed everything. You settled me so fast that night. You were perfect. I want that strength, that effect that you had. It feels like the best thank you that I can give.
