We had plans to ring in the new year together with some champagne and lucky foods. But first, I had to go to Yuan and Kyle’s for hotpot with their mother and friend. It was the first time I had hotpot with them and it was really good but I was eager to go over to your house. I ended up coming over a little late.
You had been sick from drinking too much the night before. It might have been the continuation of your birthday celebration. I think we had discussed going out for a short bit, but plans had changed from the looks of you still being in your PJs. You heated some traditional lucky German food you had made for us earlier and made some pistachio pudding too. I told you that I never had fruit cake when we were talking about A Christmas Vacation, so you got some for me to try. You tried it first and told me not to, lol.
We channel-surfed through all the performances and I told you how much I didn’t like Pit Bull. He just looks so greasy and slimy. I also told you that the performances were nothing like they used to be and you knew what I was talking about. They used to start earlier and last past the end of the countdown. Nowadays, it seemed to be lacking. I would have enjoyed a drink with you while we were watching TV, but you were still hungover.
It was a little weird to watch TV with you, because you were usually on one end of the couch and I was on the other. We had been dating for about three months by this point but there were still barriers. While our conversations were always consistent and I always had fun with you, rarely were we cuddly or psychically close.
You know that I take things very slow, but at the same time, I love the small innocent and sweet gestures of hugs and cuddles. I always felt confused about this especially after an amazing date. I felt we had a really great connection but it didn’t always translate. It seemed like things would build up, we would have a “moment”, and then wait for the next burst of affection. You gave me a quick peck after it turned 2015 and I went home shortly after. I always have a good time with you, but I have to admit that it felt a little awkward sometimes. I just figured you weren’t an affectionate guy, so I left it alone. Or I was sending off the wrong vibe.
