nerves

I'm up early and can't get back to sleep. It's been happening a lot lately.

We were walking to my car. It was roughly 2am. She was in her red dress, I was dressed all in black as a I usually do. She was telling me about her recent vacation out west, I was doing my best to pretend there weren't other things on my mind. She's nervous around me, I am around her as well. I'd been putting it off for weeks, over-thinking, getting nervous. I was tired but in a good mood. I stop short of the car and turned around to face her. I pulled her in close and without putting too much thought into it kissed her the way I had wanted to ever since I first saw her. It was a long time coming and we both new it. She was shaking, (I know because she told me) it wasn't cold out, it was nerves. She kissed me back. Work should be interesting from now on.

I didn't sleep much that night either.
