Low Maintenance Love

A first date. A first date is like a first kiss, but better. It's our first date.

I'm nervous. I've never had a date with anyone before. I always thought it was something people just did to meet people and see if they wanted to be friends or more than friends. I could go either way and I'm sure he could too. I want to go either way with him. I want to be his friend more than anything. He's my best friend.

He's my best friend and I've never dated him. I don't know how people do this. I don't know what we're supposed to do on a date. I don't know what we're supposed to talk about. How do you ask someone out? If you ask them out, do you just ask them out on a date? What if they say no? Then you're supposed to just be friends? But you're not even friends, because you didn't ask them out on a date. You asked them to be your friend. That's weird.

We were talking about the future the other day. We were talking about what we wanted to do when we grew up. I just wanted to play video games and write stories, but he said he wanted to change the world. I thought that was cool. I thought it was the most romantic thing I'd ever heard. I told him he could change the world. I think he can too. I want to help him. I want to help him make all of his dreams come true. I want to help him make mine come true too.

I know I'll have to get a job after school. I can't live at home any more. Dad said that, but he didn't mean it. He said it in that tone that means he really wants me to stay home, but doesn't want to tell me so I'll feel bad if I leave. I don't want to make him feel bad. I can't afford to live on my own. I don't want to move back home. I don't want dad to be sad.

I want to tell Dylan about it, but I'm scared. I'm not scared he'll laugh at me. I'm not scared he won't listen or care. He cares about everything. He always listens to me. We've been best friends forever. Our families have known each other forever. His parents have always been nice to me. They've always treated me like I'm family.

I'm scared of what he might say. If he says he'll stay with me, I know he will. I know he'd do anything for me. I love him. I don't want to lose him. I can't lose him. We're best friends. We're more than best friends. We're in love. We've always been in love. We've always known. We knew when we were little. We were four years old and we fell in love. It's not a new thing. It's an old thing. It's a real thing. It's a thing that's going to last forever.

I know he wants to change the world. I want to change the world too. I want to change it with him. I want to live with him. I want to date him. I want to kiss him. I want to hold his hand. I want to tell him I love him. I want to tell everyone I love him. I want to tell the whole world. I want the whole world to know how special he is.

I'm scared of what he might say. I'm scared he might say he doesn't want to change the world. He might say he wants to stay here. He might say he wants to stay here with me. I don't know what I'd do if he said that. I don't know what I'd do if he didn't.

I'm nervous but I'm happy. I'm excited. He makes me happy. I want him to make me happy. I want to make him happy. I want him to be happy with me. I want to be happy with him.

I love him. I want to spend the rest of my life with him. I know he feels the same way. I know he does. I know he feels the same way about me.

He's on his way over to pick me up. I know it. I can feel it. I can feel him coming. I know he's feeling me too. I know that's why he's on his way. I know he's feeling me and he can't wait to see me.

I'm excited. I'm looking forward to seeing him. I'm looking forward to seeing his smile and feeling his arms around me. I'm looking forward to us being together.

I'm in love with him. I love him. I'm in love with him and he's in love with me.
