this morning #2295.

this morning, we watched the sun come up from atop the water tower. made out twice & then just held hands. sat there in silence gazing at the horizon. i’d promised her that there’d be romance this time around. “wooing,” if you will. assured her that i’d make the necessary changes. so far, so good. in the past week, we’ve watched the sun set together. now we’re seeing it rise. i’ve cooked her dinner & taken her out to another. gently massaged her back. in fact, i’ve even rubbed her feet. though she hasn’t said as much to me, it seems like she appreciates the difference. the effort. the sincerity in both. she freed her hand from mine. placed it on my knee & leaned her head on my shoulder. let out a sigh of satisfaction. such a comforting reaction.
