Had one of the best nights ever last night. So this guy, even when I didn’t even know what love was, I swear I was in love with him for years. As young teenagers we would meet up whenever I’d visit, we’d catch up, I was even lucky enough to get some sweet attention at one point, and it’s been years since I’ve been back home. Apparently time does not change anything. It’s been 6 years but he still didn’t hesitate to see me. He took me to the county fair, one of the staple locations of my childhood. It used to be one of the most exciting things to do all year, but this time it was just so much better. I wasn’t a kid running around at a carnival going on rides that seemed so big back then. No, I was wandering the nostalgic streets with someone I have always cared so, so much for. We even got to call it a date—once again, lucky me! But that’s nothing compared to our beach. One of the last times I saw him we went to the local beach late at night long after they shut it down. Back then we were teenagers and we stood out wading in the lake water, clear skies and you could see all of the stars. He carried me back to the truck that time, and it was one of the sweetest moments of my adolescence. This time was just as beautiful. Night sky, the soft crash of the tiny lake waves, the breeze, the stars, and his arms around me just in silence. I could’ve stayed there and been perfectly content. It’s one of those memories and feelings I’m going to be sure to remember. I don’t know how after all this time we can just pick back up like nothing has changed, like no time has gone by, but I appreciate it and it just makes me feel incredible knowing I have someone out there that cares for me, even when I don’t even know it until I come home. It’s a beautiful thing. I just wish it was possible to make something of it. I really think there’s nothing I wouldn’t do to be with him. Maybe time has not given either of us anyone else because we’re out there for each other and we belong. It’s never too late. "You have options,” he told me. Maybe someday one of those options will be to come home for good and be everything he’s looking for, because god knows I could let it all go, never experience new things with anyone else, just to have him, and keep him. Always. I didn’t know what love was when I was 11, but at 24, even with plenty of failures in the past, I have a pretty good idea of what it is now. It’s proven that I know, since we can pick it back up so easily. The love is there, it always has been, and always will be. There will always be a place in my heart for you. ❤️
