Amine boy

He called to let me know that the Dropkick Murphys are playing a show in Las Vegas next weekend.

He sounded tired, or maybe a little sad and I felt a surge of emotion swell up inside me. I wanted to reach through the phone and pull him to me. Hold him in my arms and play with his hair, whisper sweet nothings into his ear, feel his soft skin beneath my fingertips..

It was affection and nostalgia rather than lust or a desire to rekindle an old flame.. but that doesn�t make me miss him any less..

The funny thing is, until a few moments ago, I didn�t know I missed him at all.

6:54 p.m.
