Orange Monkeys Are Falling From The Sky -- From my personal journal

Tweet

Today was quite uneventful. I attended the 4 hour Training Webinar for Teleflora and hosted Operation "Clean Apartment" today. Other than that, I really didn't do anything. Ford is back from Ferrum, so he came over for awhile to chill and Jaques walked up here as well. I don't really do much on my workdays. Right now, I have the worst headache in the history of headaches, but I still wanted to set time out to discuss what relationship historical milestone that happened to me yesterday. First disagreement/argument of the relationship occurred which was what to be expected. Minor, yet it happened. We were over it instantly, however. But yesterday, 4/26, in the afternoon sometime he randomly asked, "Guess what??" And the way he looked, I assumed something was wrong or he was leaving or something, so I'm solemnly like, "What..?" He responds simply, "Guess?" and by this point, I'm a little irritable because I don't like to play guessing games. So, I provided two random guesses. The first guess was totally over the top to symbolize my state of apprehension being, "Orange monkeys are going to fall out of the sky??" Being as ridiculous as it was, I figured that he'd go ahead and tell me whatever it was. To my unexpected surprise, he wanted me to guess again, more realistically this time. So I gave an honest shot in the dark out of all of the trillions of things it could've been. I guessed, "Do you feel any better from earlier?" because he wasn't feeling that well earlier that morning. He gave up jeering and I gave up guessing. Once I felt completely defeated, he said, "Come here." Automatically, I am instantaneously back on alert as to what this really might be, estimating the seriousness of where this might be going and I hesitantly laid on his chest to await whatever news he had to bear upon me, mentally preparing myself, whether good or bad. He simply says after a few seconds of making me dreadfully wait, "I love you... first!" My heart instantly melted like an elegant swan ice sculpture on a beach wedding day. Like a wave, I felt a sunlight warmth in the deep freezing caverns within what's left of my heart and felt a feeling long forgotten. Whatever part that was deemed as the recipient of this message, instant messaged a reply right back indicating that I'd felt the same way! I loved him, too! Overwhelmed by what transpired so swiftly, all my brain registered was utter awe and confusion immediately resulting in shock and embarrassment. I never thought I'd feel that way when my heart finally knew. It's still indescribable... Afterthought: We randomly say to each other.. "Orange monkeys are falling out of the sky" to remember that day when we first told each other we loved each other lol & people look at us like we're insane ! haha
