Waking up next to you the next day is chicken noodle soup for my soul. The aroma, the warmth, the tender meat. Every part of waking up next to you is soothing and feeds my every need. Before the first I love you is exchanged, I already feel wrapped up in a safe bubble of amor. Snuggling with the love of my life, there is no greater feeling of comfort. Later that day, we watched For All Mankind- The Life and Career of Mick Foley. I absolutely loved watching that with you. I love Mick Foley, both him and Socko hold a place in my childhood memories. Being in bed with you, watching that documentary, it meant a lot to me and I want you to fully understand why. Wrestling is only one of the things that brings us closer together, and it makes me feel like a kid again. You have made me appreciate it in such a different way. I still feel like a kid, but I care for it so much more now. When we had our first tiff, I told you to "Have a nice day, all Mick Foley like." I never forgot that. Why did I choose those words? I really did want you to have a nice day. But I also wanted to acknowledge, again, the strong connection we had by saying something I knew you would get. You would get it. It's Mick Foley, of course you'd get it. I kept telling you thank you for ordering the documentary that day. Seriously, baby, thank you. I love that I have that Mick Foley memory with you. And BAH GAWD, that documentary was pretty pretty prettaay prettaayy good :D No, it was awesome :) Pretty pretty pretttayyy prettaayyy awesome :)
That night, we went on our first walk together. "Where do you want to go?" I didn't know. When we started walking, and you put your arm around my waist. I melted. I was so happy to be having that moment with you. I kept asking you if we were going to turn here, or there. You would ask me if I wanted to turn and I'd say no, so we kept going straight. Nearing Hotel ZaZa you pointed out the lit trees, and we stopped and kissed. :) When we got to the Mecom Fountain, and I was scared of getting run over, and you told me to just follow you, I loved that. I followed you. As we passed the Houston Museum of Natural Science, there was music playing and you talked to me, like a sir. Then, we spun right round, baby, right round, like a record baby, after deciding not to approach the big black ball. "Do you know how to read statues?" I really was thrown off by that. But you were asking because we were in view of the Sam Houston Monument. You taught me how to read statues, and you couldn't tell me where you learned it from. As we got nearer the Miller Outdoor Theatre, we heard music again. You told me it was a great Swahilian song. You even clicked some of it for me. And as we kept walking around the lame gate that was up, and were in view of the Mary Gibbs and Jesse H. Jones Reflection Pool, there were lanterns floating about it, leftover from the Japanese festival you said.
They looked so beautiful at night, twinkling and still in the night's breeze. We walked past the pool and went towards the music. You were telling me how you love nights like that, when it's slightly chilly and that you have fond memories with your cousins during times like that. We couldn't walk to the hill to watch the show, so we turned back around and ended up at the Lake Plaza on the Tiffany & Co. Foundation Bridge near the pedal boat lagoon. We kissed. Our boy sat on the bridge. :) Then you told me you wanted to take me to a spot that you love. And we walked to your spot...
Past the bean, and on a picnic table we sat looking at McGovern Lake. You sat behind me, with me in between your legs and Avy in my lap. We heard a little squirrel you said, probably a mouse we thought. I was scared and you told me that it was okay, the mouse was not going to jump up to the table. :) I felt safe. There was a cold breeze and thank God for my baby that kept me warm. You nibbled on my ear and then you tongued it. You made me want you there. I couldn't believe myself, but then I could believe that I would want you anywhere. You licked my neck and made me want you even more. We didn't do anything else, however, and went back on our walk as the sprinklers hissed at us. I asked if we could go back to sit on a bench where the lanterns were, and you agreed.We sat on a bench that was in front of lots of glowing lanterns. We sat and kissed with the River Oaks Chamber Orchestra playing in the background. I loved every minute of it. The lanterns. The music. Your kisses. The duckies quacking. The love we shared. I had this sudden urge to put you in my mouth, and so I began to touch you. But then I heard people, girls talking. Shortly after, the symphony ended and people began to head out. We decided to go home and as we were leaving, we looked at the duckies :) "Do you know why ducks sleep with one leg raised?" You taught me why duckies slept with one leg raised, and couldn't tell me where you learned it from. :) As we're walking home, near the Mecom Fountain again, you told me about the portal you never want to go through again, because you don't want anything to change. We didn't go through the portal and we will not. You wanted to stop and play with the dirt again lol We didn't! In front of the Grand Prize, you grabbed a huge piece of wood and wanted to take it home. lol The wood stayed in front of the Grand Prize. We made our way to the Blackhole :) You bought a scone, I believe you said it was, a cup of milk, and a lemonade. :) "Does that say apple? Do you think that's apple juice?" And a sparkling apple juice. I stole some of your apple juice lol :) and you wanted to buy me one, but I said no. I appreciated the offer, but we already had our hands full. Plus, the fact that it was YOUR apple juice made it taste better :D. We went home and went to bed shortly after. April 21, 2012, we had a walk to remember.
During the night, my baby was hurting so I rubbed your back. I wished so badly to take away your pain. I hated seeing you like that. It reminded me of when I couldn't sleep during my horrible pain; I could relate to you. I know it's not the same pain, but it was enough to keep me up at night, like you were that night. I loved being there to try and help soothe you. Just like I love when I wake you up when it's hard for you to breathe when you're sleeping. I don't love that that happens to you, obviously, but just the fact that I can help my baby. We made love :) And I kept asking if you wanted breakfast...lol :) We never did get breakfast. When we awoke the next morning, my baby gave me my hugs and kisses. :) I went back to sleep and I hate that the next time I woke up, my phone alerted me I had a text and then you got up to use the restroom. "Why are you up?" I had to go. "It's not fair, we haven't even had breakfast yet." It's not fair. April 22, 2013, but it was such a perfect weekend that I'll never forget, a weekend to remember.
I love you so much Rene. I treasure every single second with you. I can't wait until every weekend is spent with you. Thank you for the beautiful weekend baby. I look forward to countless others :))))))))))
