    She sits next to me for hours in the garage, talking nonstop, while I work on my motorcycle. She’ll sit and massage my feet while I practice guitar. I straighten her hair for her with the flat iron because she always misses that one spot in the back of her head. When we’re apart we text and video chat as much as possible. She’s my best friend, and I love her at her best and her worst and everything that falls in the middle.

It is better to live with the known than face the unknown.

    I wait until her breathing is soft and even against me before I let myself drift off to sleep, like I’ve been doing every night for the past few weeks. Slowly, everything in my life is turning into putting her first, and I’m not going to fight it.

    When I look at you, I don’t see my father’s friend, or my uncle, or my godfather, or an older man. All I see is the person I’ve always loved and has always made me happy. That’s it. I just see you.
