"Look I am already getting a gift, from Jenna and that's enough for me" Jeremy says after taking a sip of his beer.
It was odd usually Jeremy begs me to buy his a gift and now he only wants a gift from Jenna "what do you love her or something?" I say and then take a sip of my coke.
"I might" Jeremy says blushing and I spat out my coke and stare at him.
Jeremy and I always spend Sunday together; we go to the bar, stay at home or go out for dinner. It was something we did when we were kids and it became a habit now.
"jeez bro" Jeremy says while cleaning up the coke I spit
"sorry it's just, you have never loved anyone. Not even your parents".
Jeremy looks up at me pissed and then throws the napkins in the dustbin. He sits back on the sofa and takes out a cigarette and smokes it.
"well you should be happy. You always say I should meet someone and be happy, and right now I am happy" he says while blushing.
I let out a squeal and hold his hand and ask "can I be your best man when you get married?" Jeremy pulls his hand back and says "don't get any dumb ideas".
I have always loved marriages.
I have always dreamed about having a big wedding where everyone I know will come. The honeymoon would be super romantic.
"What about you and Catherine? You should tell her quick or someone else will take her away" Jeremy says and blows out a puff of smoke.
"I think she knows, so she might not want to be with me" I say thinking about how obvious I acted around her.
"Well don't worry, she knows. She hasn't said yes but she hasn't said no either, just give her some time and space"
Time and space?
Sounds like Doctor who but he is right. I have been acting creepy and always worrying about her but I should give her space
"so what should I do till then?" I ask
Jeremy looks up at me and says "you live"
I sigh and go to my phone and calls the pizza guy and asks him to send two pepperoni pizzas
Well I have lived before meeting Catherine so I'm sure I can live for a few days without her
Ha! Of course not! I love her and I will not cut her off, I can text her or email her
"Well I guess we should just have a guy's day, huh?" I ask and Jeremy nods and places his cigarette in the bowl and takes a sip of his beer
We spend the day watching movies and talking about our jobs and lives.
Turns out, Jeremy has deleted all the booty call numbers in his phone. Now he only has me, Jenna and Catherine in his contacts
He must love Jenna but I don't remember them talking after the dinner "so how long have you and Jenna been going out?" I ask, I take another sip of my coke.
"we have been going out for a few months, I think" Jeremy tells me, smiling.
It's weird seeming him like this but also kind of a good feeling
Jeremy has never dated anyone for more than a week so the fact that they have been going out for months
means he must be serious about her.
But I'm sure he isn't like me and will take it slow, even though he has already fallen for her.
"I know what you're thinking" I look at Jeremy who is looking down at his lap "we've only been going out for a few months. but I'm already in love with her.
Well, she accepts me for who I am. She understands me and treats me like I'm her everything." Jeremy starts blushing "I just want to give her the world. I don't know if she loves me but I don't care, I love her and it doesn't matter if it's only been a few months.
I still love her" Jeremy says and closes his eyes and lets out a sigh.
I just stare at him in shock
"As long as you both are happy, it doesn't matter how long it's been" I say and look up at the ceiling.
"I fell in love with Catherine after just a few days so don't worry. Also there are guys who fall in love after a few hours" I continue to say and look over at Jeremy who is laughing
"Your hopelessness is contagious" Jeremy says.
I look at him and smile and say "I hope in a good way"
Jeremy looks at me and says in a quiet tone, while smiling "In the best way"
