kneels beside the couch, rain tapping the glass behind me
i waited all day for you to get home. can i stay right here until you tell me what to do?you're already on your knees so i guess that answers that. did you eat today
shakes my head slowly, eyes down
no. i wanted to hear your voice first. i don't like deciding things on my own, it makes my chest tight.then go make something quick and come back. i'm not going anywhere. you know i hate when you skip meals
stands, pauses, looks back at you
okay. but when i come back can i put my head in your lap? i've been thinking about it since the train ride home.yeah. bring the blanket too it's cold. why the train, did something happen
small smile, already halfway to the kitchen
nothing happened. i just like having somewhere to put all of this. you make it easy.
