i decided i wanted to write and put on some music and this was born. - rei
edwin was always kind of understated, a go with the flow kinda guy. he fed off the energy around him. he got carried away when the energy was vibrant and could vibe with almost anyone willing to bounce energy back and forth. when he met you things were no different. you bounced energy off of each other and matched each other’s intensity or calmness.
today was your 6 month anniversary. you didn’t really think it needed to be a big deal, but you still wanted to celebrate. edwin felt the same. neither of you thought it was some serious thing, but you both wanted to celebrate the love between you no matter what it was for.
“ED!” you yelled from your bedroom where you were getting ready for your day. edwin had come over early so you could have breakfast together and plan your day out. he jogged into your room and laughed at the small pout on your face and the mess around you. “babygirl, what happened?” he laughed walking over to you, careful not to step on anything, and wrapping you up in his arms. he was just a bit taller than you so his chin rested on the top of your head.
you whined and buried your face in his chest. “i don’t like my clothes,” you looked up at him and pouted. he grinned and pecked your nose, “mkay, let’s see what we’re workin’ with here.” he started going through all the clothes that you had tossed around your room in the time it had taken him to wash the dishes from breakfast. you sat on your bed in your nightshirt with your knees pulled to your chest still pouting excessively as you watched him move around your room.
he organized the clothes into piles you didn’t understand and kept holding pieces next to each other or up towards your body. your eyebrows scrunched up and your pout deepened as he started mumbling stuff to himself and going through your closet. “edwin, papito, what are you doing?” his hand waved you off from the closet and you sighed flopping back on your pillows.
when he finally emerged he laid out a full outfit next to you and grinned. you sat up and looked at what he had picked out. a light grey tank top, some faded black torn demin jeans, and a camo jacket. you turned to look at him, “how the hell did you do that?” he just laughed and jumped on your bed. “change! we got adventures to have!” you laughed and went to the bathroom the change quickly and put on a little makeup. when you came back edwin had dozed off in your bed.
the sunlight streaming through the window was at the perfect angle to make his skin almost glow. you smiled and snapped a picture before quietly creeping over to the bed. you jumped up next to him and leaned your head over his face. he blinked up and you and groaned, “oh my god, you were taking forever.” you stuck your tongue out at him and moved to get up off the bed. he was too fast for you though because he wrapped his arms around your waist and flipped you both on the bed to where he could rest his head on your stomach and he pretended to go back to sleep.
“edwinnnnnnn,” you laughed carding your fingers through his curls. “mmm,” he said from his comfy spot. “adventure rememberrrrrr,” you sang playfully wiggling to try and get out of his grip. he scrunched up his face and tightened his hold on you. “but cuddles?” you giggled at the pout forming on his face and booped his nose. “adventure during the day, cuddles tonight!” he opened one eye and grinned at you, “well, when you put it that way.” he got up out of bed and dragged you with him. you laughed following him and slipping on your shoes as the two of you ran out the door.
you spent the day hitting up various thrift shops and craft stores, before getting lunch at the Grove Farmer’s Market, so he could get Asian food and you could get Hispanic food. on your way home, you managed to find a cute little ice cream shop and you stopped there. by the time you made it back to your apartment you were both exhausted.
“happy anniversary baby,” you said as the two of you collapsed on the couch. edwin smiled and pulled you into his chest. “happy anniversary mamas,” he said kissing your forehead. you hummed in satisfaction cuddling into him more. “i’m thinking pizza for dinner and then we watch something on netflix.” you laughed, “edwin, we just had ice cream like 15 minutes ago.” “yes and?” he grinned at you.
you just shook your head and pulled up postmates on your phone, “how about this place?” edwin looked over the menu and nodded, “i can respect a man from new york settin’ up roots in LA.” you rolled your eyes and placed to order yawning. “oh my god that’s the cutest shit i have ever seen,” edwin’s eyes were wide and his jaw was dropped a little. you looked at him confused. “i don’t ever think i’ve seen you yawn before.” you busted out laughing, “oh my god i love you so much.” he sat up and pulled you into his lap and pressed a kiss to your lips. you happily reciprocated and that led to a full-fledged make-out session until you were interrupted by postmates. “PIZZA!” edwin yelled jumping up from the couch and leaving you giggling in his wake.
