lazy saturday again.
these are my favorite days.
morning #
slept until 10.
A. already up. could hear her doing yoga in the living room.
watched her for a bit from bed. she’s so fucking hot when she’s focused.
she caught me watching.
“creep.”
“your fault.”
afternoon #
errands. groceries, dry cleaning, boring adult shit.
but doing it together makes it less boring.
she has this way of making everything feel… easy.
we were in the laundry room waiting for the dryer.
nobody else around. sunday morning quiet.
the laundry room #
she looked at me with that look.
“really? here?”
“places list.”
number 64.
we had to be quiet. she was biting her lip to keep from making noise while I fucked her against the folding table. almost got caught when someone walked by.
the thrill never gets old.
dr R session this week #
wednesday was therapy.
told her about anniversary planning.
“you seem excited about it. that’s different from how you used to talk about relationship milestones.”
“how did I used to talk about them?”
“like obligations. things to survive. now you’re talking about surprising her, making her happy.”
she’s right.
I used to count down to relationship endings. now I’m counting down to celebrations.
asked me if A. and I still talk about what we like in bed.
“constantly.”
“and it’s still good?”
“better. she knows exactly what I want. I know exactly what she wants. no guessing.”
dr R had that smile again. the one where she’s trying to be professional but I can tell she’s interested.
“that kind of communication is rare.”
yeah. I know.
evening #
made dinner together.
she’s teaching me to cook. I’m still shit at it but I try.
tonight was risotto. I mostly stirred while she did the actual cooking.
sat on the balcony after. wine, sunset, her leaning against me.
“you’re planning something for december.”
“maybe.”
“I can tell. you get this look when you’re scheming.”
“you’ll have to wait and see.”
tonight #
11:38pm. she’s asleep.
saturday with my wife. errands, laundry room quickie (places list 64), risotto, sunset.
dr R says the communication is rare.
I say I’m just lucky.
11:38pm saturday. lazy saturday with A. grocery run, laundry room quickie (places list 64, almost got caught). dr R noticed I talk about relationship milestones differently now - excited instead of obligated. dinner and wine and sunset. planning december anniversary. getting better at risotto (still mostly just stirring).
