major life plot twist lol...
I’m still not convinced this morning was real. Especially since I was awake hours before my usual time. But the evidence is there on my text messages. I guess I actually did hook up with my lab partner lmfao... I can’t remember if I ever code named him so I’m gonna use Lark.
It all started with Master of None. I was contemplating whether I should just go for it, and ask him out. I made the mistake of telling my roommate. To my surprise, she told me to go for it. After all, classes were done, we weren’t tied together in an awkward situation anymore where we had to see each other every day. We barely saw each other (except that he sits right behind me during exams) unless it was by accident at the gym.
Annoyingly, she wouldn’t let it go. She hounded me to ask him out. And I finally did it to just prove to her that it wasn’t going to work. I’d spent months thinking that I liked him, suspecting he liked me back, puzzling over his mixed signals, and it was finally time to give the fuck up. He was leaving in 3 days to do basic training in Texas, until mid July. I was leaving in a week also for a month, getting back in mid-July. What was the point of starting something now?
And yet, we were texting about nothing, texting to text. I finally asked him if he wanted to get lunch on friday after our exam. I’d previously invited him to lunch with me and the roommate as a joke, telling him he could join us. He joked that we would ditch her and take his motorcycle. I was like lol nah. This was maybe monday? Then on wednesday I ask him if he wanted to go to lunch on friday. And hes like sounds good *thumbs up*. Damn. I didn’t expect him to actually agree without clarifying. Fuck. So then I had to clarify like the weenie I was, and I’m pretty sure at that point he could tell it was a date but I still wasn’t sure. So we don’t figure out where to go, except maybe to this neighborhood close by.
The day of, I was such a wreck. He texted me that he was ready to go and my heart just started going into spasms. I blame it on the exam. He texts again to say that I should wear long pants, not shorts. Fuck!!! We’re actually going to take his bike, yikes! I go down, and his roommate opens the door, trying to keep a straight face, and he’s like, can I help you? And I’m like ahh I’m here for Lark. Is he here? and he gives me a glare as I nervously smile and he starts closing the door. Damnit! The old overprotective father bit. He opens it and he’s like, just kidding! come in!
The darn fool is in the bathroom, so I’m making nervous conversation with roommate, and he comes out and he’s like hey, so where are we going? And I was like oh fuck I was supposed to look that up... And I can barely look him in the eye. Everything just feels so damn awkward. And he’s running around looking for his boots, he pats his pockets, and we head out. We go downstairs, and run into a bunch of fucking people from our year. Awk. When we get to the garage, he realizes he forgo this car keys, so we have to make the whole awkward journey back. Luckily for us, only one elevator is working, so the same people we passed on the way out are still there. One of them asks me where I went that i came back so fast. Ded. And then the icing on the cake, my other semi-oblivious roommate comes back, and I try to engage her in conversation but it dies because of how long the elevator takes. At that moment, she decides to ask where I’m going. I give her a look and I’m about to respond but then she says “oh, right.” FUCK. I am 50 shades of crimson now. We ride the elevator up, and then we get off at his floor, and my friend looks at me strangely but I avoid eye contact. His roommates are like, what happened, and then he grabs his car keys, we go back down, I’m so high key wired that I’m about to explode if you so much as lit a cigarette in this joint. He walks us to the bike and he’s like, ok, have you ever ridden? And I’m like no. And he explains to me a few things and then I’m holding the helmet in my hand like oh god. And i’m like nope Im scared I can’t do this, and I start hyperventilating and he just ignores me and is fiddling with his bike and then we figure out how the helmet works on my head and i have to take my glasses off and it’s more tragic mess, and then I get on and I feel the panic rising and I’m like oh god I need like 2 minutes give me 2 minutes and he just starts revving the motorcycle and I’m like AHHHH and I grab onto him and basically squish the fuck out of him and also bash my helmet into his 800 times (wtf, how come nobody ever talks about how this happened?! I never even expected it and I spent the whole way bashing my helmet into his everytime we braked (which was a lot)).
He talks to me a little on the way there, and I’m just like ahhhfsodfjsfds ? We finally get there and I tried to enjoy the view, but my legs were so shaky and I was hot, and I could feel that I was sweating on him probably and pressing my boobs against him (lmfao) and he was hot because I was all up in his space. We just talked a little about random things, then I asked him how I could avoid hitting my helmet against his, and he laughs and says to just anticipate the braking and also that I didn’t have to hold him so tightly. I told him I didn’t want to fall off and die. We had some more chit chat, more me being awkward, some laughter about random things, and then we went back and it was slightly better this time, except that I totally held on to his oblique muscles instead and I totally felt him up the whole time. It was nice. We passed by our entire class on the lawn on the way back, and he said he had to play squash with another classmate and told me to come for happy hour, but i said that I was going downtown to see wonder woman (totally fucking worth it!!!!!!!! that movie gives me so much life. Like way better than a year of awesome sex. Because it’s so fulfilling. Girl power, man!!!) So glad I went instead of hanging onto him like a thirsty thot. Cuz that was reserved for this morning.
When we parted ways he said, see you later, hopefully. And I said yeah see you! And then I didn’t see him that night. He texted me before the movie (I was already downtown) asking if I had left yet. Yeah, I did. I asked him if I should text him when I got back (which would be super fucking late). And he said yeah, let me know what time. And i told him. And then he said his phone was dying! So I told hiim to charge it. And then I asked him if he was still awake, when I got back, and I got no response, so I went to bed.
I randomly woke up at 5:30 AM this morning, and there was a text from him literally 4 minutes after I said fuck it I’m going to bed ( I gave him 40 mins to respond) and he said sorry!! I didn’t think you would make it back so fast. And then I was like, well you clearly didnt sleep. And he’s like, neither did you. And I was jokingly like, wanna watch it now? And he’s like yeah I’m just coming back from printing stuff. And then he said he had to pack, which he still didn’t do. I was half delirious, which was the only reason I said, ok but can we cuddle tho. And omg, he responds, yes pls, im packing in a panic. And then I told him to just come in and not wake up the oblivious roommate who was here. And I hear him come in 20 minutes later and he knocks and comes into my room, and then he puts all his shit on my desk. And I stand up because I’m in bed and I feel awk, but I’m too sleepy, and I’m trying to show him my photos but its clear he doesnt gaf lmfao.
So I get into bed, and I move over, and he lays down, and I wrap myself on him. He’s chewing gum so he smells all nice, with his deodorant or aftershave or whatever the fuck he wears. We have a bit of conversation, and he kind of entwines our legs together for a while, and then he suddenly gets up over me and starts kissing me, and grinds his pelvis into me, and it’s just as jarring as I thought it was going to be, and I’m running my hands all up and down his back, and he’s trying to choke me and pull my hair at the same time and I’m like huh what, and then apparently he interprets my cuddle text as “you texted me to come and fuck you” like ok bruh maybe sometimes cuddles are just cuddles. And anyway then sex and it was interesting in a this could maybe be good if we weren’t all freaking out about you needing to leave in 10 mins and also jeez stop trying to choke me, and also how do you like anything, and I’m drying up because I need more foreplay and I’m tired and its morning and I have a date in 3 hours... YUP.
And then his alarm goes off while I’m on top, and he looks at me, and he’s just like, please dont stop, and we let it ring for a while, and then I hear my roommate get up (fuck! I forgot she had volunteering so she was gonna wake up) and we fuck for a while more, and it’s still surreal and then he gets up to shut the alarm off and then we get back to bed and fuck some more, and then his alarm rings again, and he’s like damn it, I want to come, and I’m like ok come for me then, and then the alarm shuts off and his phone starts buzzing, and he’s like fuck, that’s my captain.
I’m like, omg why are you like this!!!! and he wants to finish and then he finishes and then we get dressed and he picks up the phone and hes like yes sorry i will be there, and I hear some stern reprimanding on the other line, and he’s like im at the elevator with my bags, and then he runs out with his socks and omg he’s not wearing shoes -___- and I shut the door, and then I’m like, oh wait, and I go out, and I’m like, hey give me a hug. And he’s like oh right, and he hugs me and kisses me and then goes back to waiting for the elevator. Lol this fool.
Idk whats gonna happen in july but I am gonna live life now. Cuz you never know and this is the proof~
