Save your heart.

If this is love, please don't break me. I'm giving up so just catch me.

"Why didn't you tell me about the other albums?" I was talking to John on the phone. He said nothing. I guess he was expecting me to keep talking. "Yeah, the one with 'Free' and other bunch of songs. I like that!" It was my second favourite album of them. I found In Darkness And In Light even better than Black & White.

"How did you find it anyways?" He laughed a little.

"I googled 'The Maine'. I don't know, I was curious." I smiled.

"So, what are you doing at the moment?"

"Listening to your sweet voice twice: on the phone and singing Untangle Me." I laughed. "Seriously, it may be weird because you're my boyfriend, but I'm currently obsessed with that song. It even gave me goosebumps the first two or three times I listened to it, no joke." I laughed again.

"Woah, and you're screwing up the vocalist of that band? What a groupie." He joked. I laughed. I felt like a teenager even though I was 22 now. It was like being 15 again and falling in love for the first time. It was amazing, yet horrible - this fairytale feeling wouldn't last forever, that's not how it works. But for the first time in my entire life, I felt safe in somebody else's arms.

"Thanks." I smiled. He apparently heard the song on the background because he started singing. He was singing a duet with himself. Funny. "Hey, Charlieissocoollike the second, do you want to go to the mall with me?" We recently saw that video of Charlie, so hopefully, he would understand the joke. He laughed. He did understand.

"Yeah, I'll be there in about 20 minutes."

"Alright. See you in 20 minutes. Bye."

"Love you. Bye."

"I would play In Darkness And In Light but I figured it'd be awkward, so I brought some Elvis." I said, unlocking the car and sitting in the driver's seat.

"Yeah, it'd be weird. Elvis is good. An Elvis song was playing on the radio the first time we shared a car." He said, smiling.

"I thought you wouldn't remember!" I started the engine and drove to the mall.

"How could I not. I wouldn't forget a girl's face if she was wearing and Elvis T-Shirt. Let alone if that girl was you." He smiled again and rested his hand on my thigh.

"Oh, stop it! You're making me blush!" I said, laughing.

We sang on our way to the mall until I parked.

"You didn't tell me you were going touring in a month..." I told him once we were out of the car; his left arm around my shoulders, my left hand holding his; our fingers intertwined.

"I know I should have..." he sighed "but I didn't want you to focus on me leaving. It's just complicated, I guess."

"It's alright. Just tell me next time, okay? It'll be fine. Just avoid telling me the country or continent or whatever. I do not want to know that." I ggigled/sighed.

"Okay." He smiled and kissed me on my right temple.

We walked in and window shopped for a bit We went to a music store and bought some CDs. I bought an Ed Sheeran one - who doesn't like British guys? Plus, I liked his songs and didn't care what other people thought. I also bought an Elvis DVD of one of his concerts, surprise, surprise! John bought a bunch of CDs I had never heard of. He was a bit of a hipster; that thought alone made me giggle because I don't know if I was serious or just joking to myself. It was okay with me any of the ways. We would listen to one of the CDs he had bought on our way home. I actually liked the music he liked. I mean, it had a nice sound most of the times. I also bought a Nintendo 64 in that same shop. It included the Pokemon Stadium game and a Mario Bros. one. Garrett would be glad to play with me, I thought. I would also enjoy playing alone, though. Then, we walked past a jewelry shop and it occurred to me that I could buy something for John there. He wore a silver ring on his index finger sometimes, so, maybe, I could just buy a new one with something engraved inside it. So, somehow, I managed to get rid of him for about 15 minutes. I asked him to go to Starbucks while I went to the restroom and told him I'd meet him there. As soon as he left, I quickly went to the jewelry shop and asked for what I wanted. They told me it'd be done in a week, so I chose the ring, told the jeweler what I wanted to engrave inside, and rushed back to the Starbucks.

"That was a long pee." He told me when I arrived.

"There was a long queue." I laughed, hoping my excuse wouldn't give me away. "Thanks for the drink."

We walked around the part of the mall we hadn't visited yet, drinking our Starbucks. Once we finished, I held John's hand and dragged him to a shop. "Help me." I giggled and winked. We were at a lingerie shop and I needed some new bras and panties. Really. The shop assistant told us nothing when she saw us giggling in the changing room. It actually seemed like she was happy to see a young couple in her shop since she winked at us. It was really weird. I ended up buying two bras and their corresponding panties. Then, John chose another set because he liked them and thought I'd look good in it. I ended up buying those two items, too. Lust. What a thing it was. I most certainly enjoyed it.
