[ Andrea's MUST list now includes ... Paolo Nutini | Last Request ]

…stay on the phone with me, I’ll wait until you fall asleep.
But how will you know when I’m asleep? What if I’m faking?
When you start to breathe heavy, I know you’re sleeping.
What if I fake breathing heavy?
Just stop talking.
Okay.
Good night, he said.
Good night, she said.

Are you still awake? He said.
Yes.
I like you.
Me too.
I can tell you were smiling when you said that.
Maybe.
Good night, he said.
Good night, she said.

Are you still awake? She said.
Yes.
Hey.
Hi.
Okay good night, she said.
Good night, he said.

Are you still awake? He said.
A little bit.
Okay, what position are you in?
I’m curled up into a ball.
Are you facing the right, or the left?
Right.
Perfect.

Are you still awake? She said.
I might be.
I do like you too.
Me too.
That doesn’t make any sense.
It doesn’t need to.
Okay, good night, she said.
Good night, he said.

    Sounds like late-night phone conversations Bob and I used to have in high school. Love in the air?

  2. Andrea says:

    Oh ah, nooo. Love? Nooo.

    It’s just a little narrative that’s born from many little moments.

    Aw … too sweet … I want that.
