Late night was passing fast but we continued talking not really realizing but I had started spending my nights with him. He was the last person that I'd talk to before falling asleep and almost two months of that I was getting use to it. When we didn't talk I didn't sleep right but I wouldn't never let him know that. For a while we both were very quiet not saying anything the conversation was over but neither one of us wanted to leave.
So West are you ready to go home he asked. I imagine there's things that you'd like to get back to.
You never did tell me why you're here turning to look me in the eye.
Well I said my story isn't as exciting as yours really I am just tired of being every man that I talk to microphone. Somebody to push and I have an idea in my head in which you're starting to make me rethink. Let me guess he said you came here to get better look, lose some weight, tone up your body and show them just how good you can really look right.
Exactly I said... Remember West I was here when you first got here and your size didn't stop me from talking to you.
I just looked at him.
But I look better now tho don't I. Tammy you were beautiful to me then and you're beautiful to me now. Yeah I said but I look better now right I mean better than I did before. Look what I didn't understand was we didn't break up because I cheated with a better looking woman.... we had this bond that bond when two people are meant to be together. I broke that as you remember me saying Ann didn't ever mention the woman although she knew about it. I tried to fix things the problem was once that kinda bond is broken it'll never be the same again so I let her go. She had this look and I knew I could see that she loved me that was gone I was satisfied just being in the same room with her. Just knowing she would be there.
It's been years and I haven't felt anything like that yet. Yes I've dated other women pretty, sexy some both but what I want don't have nothing to do with appearances. You know I'm just making conversation right he said.
You leave I two days West we've been talking for almost two months and I don't want to let it go. Look it's 4 o'clock I've got to get some sleep we stood quiet his eyes caught mine 'that look good night West.
I got back to the dorm dam I said dam and fell asleep.
