Ferry Thing

It was a Thursday.

You had a headache.

You were waiting for me.

It was the submission day for my 296 assignment. I was actually finished but I was waiting for Reena to finish hers because she was using my laptop.

You spent 2 hours sitting down while I was trying to help Reena. And yet even though that was the case, you still patiently waited for me.

When we were finally able to leave, we put most of our stuff in the locker and I made you carry the rest. You were my human bag, pillow, duvet and everything else that day. We went to Britomart and you bought us tickets to Devonport. It was my first time riding the ferry.

The wind was cold, but you very warm.

When we got to Devonport, we walked around the shops to look for food. Lucky for us we were able to find some! I bought chips which you were able to finish (Because you're so great!). We went to the docks first, but the big scary men and trucks chased us away. -_-

On a side note: I really want to go back that awesome shop in Devonport with the pig magnets and everything!

We moved to the park bench and then we watched the clouds change. And then we saw peeks of light slowly going down behind the trees and the buildings. The sun had gone down and I didn't notice because I was busy looking at you.

We moved again. This time to the steps that led to the beach. We sat there for a while, keeping warm and finishing those POTATO chips.

You were very adamant that we walk on the beach. Even if I prefer walking on warm summer nights, I realized that the cold winter nights were also enjoyable (especially since I was with you). :">

Finally we saw this extended rock based dock like thing with a circular rock chair at the end. We raced from and to it.

You gave me a five second headstart. I ran and won! ;)

When we were catching our breath. You said you said you had something you wanted me to listen to. It was quite cold and I had my arms around your waist beneath your jacket. A recorded guitar started playing and then you started singing.

It was very unexpected and very sweet. And I must admit that even at that point, I still had no clue on what you were planning to do.

And then you asked. And then it all made sense.

And then we were together.

We were able to catch the 6:45 ferry to the city. We went up Queen street and went back to uni just in time for the bus home. We finished the night off with lots of hugs and kisses.

It was a really good date. :)
