I thought it wasn't for real. I thought it was just until there. I thought you won't even like me. I got ahead of myself but it's a good thing it didn't stop me from giving it a try. And now, I think I mean something to you and I hope we're going somewhere with this.
It was a quarter to four when I finally saw you. Just by the escalator, there you stood. Black shorts with matching black shoes, a shirt with a design of a dog, and your newly bought Herschel bag. You wore your signature glasses which had a really high grade. We roamed around the mall before getting the tickets you reserved the night before. "X-Men: Days of Future Past" was the movie you chose to watch. I'm not really a fan of any Marvel, X-Men, or whatever movie but since you insisted that movie, I went for it.
Your first stick. We were outside and you kept asking me if I was okay. I was my usual awkward self and I couldn't help it. I tried keeping up with the conversation but I was still very much overwhelmed that I was dating you, that I finally saw you, and that I was with you. All that was too much to take in.
We had some snacks. You bought Php 360 worth of fries with barbecue, honey mustard, and cheese dips, lemonade juice and a cheeseburger without pickles. We ate it on a table near by and it was my first time to actually take a good look at you. You were adorable as ever. You weren't what I expected but I was happy. Your eyes were different. Your lips weren't that thick. You weren't that fit. But I really didn't care.
We went out for your second stick and quickly after, went into the cinema. L22 for me and L23 for you. The movie started and as it did, our hands held, our lips kissed, and my feelings grew. I hope yours did too. With each breath-taking scene, you squeezed my hand and I squeezed yours back. Many things really do happen inside the cinema.
The movie ended but that didn't finish our night. We roamed around and just talked. We had a hard time looking for a place to hang but we ended up buying some sunnies and you had your third stick as we went outside Starbucks. We were getting closer as the night grew deeper. Then we went inside and waited for a seat with a nearby socket. When we finally did, we took the table and then transferred to the couches.
I didn't understand your order so you ordered for us. My regular Venti Mocha Frappe plus your drink was labelled "Daril" which we both found stupid. We played PvZ 2 and it was a bit challenging on my part but it was so easy for you. We had more time to ourselves and things got hot. We talked about twitter and my gesture of talking to Joper about my liking to you, which apparently you liked. We played side by side and you licked my ear in exchange of me playing with yours. I wanted right there and then to kiss you.
We went outside again and you took your fourth stick. Once it was done, we had to get going because you were going to Leo's flat.
You accompanied me out to the bus stop and before we left each other's company, you gave me a big hug in the middle of the crowd. You kissed me by the neck and as you did, I whispered into your ears "Do you like me?" and you sad "Sakto lang." I followed it with "Good enough to be your boyfriend?" and your reply made me smile. "I can't tell right now." It wasn't a no but it was a maybe. There was hope. There was a chance.
It''s funny how the littlest of details got stuck in my mind. Like the dips, the price of your order, the seats, and the time that you smoke. I really like you. I hope you feel the same way. I wanted to say those three words but I hesitated thinking that it was too early for it. I wanted to feel your lips on mine. You pushed against the wall by me as I smothered you with kisses.
I'd love to be your boyfriend. I love you, Daryl. There, I said it.
