The two of us ran around the city. She seemed to lead me somewhere. But in the same moment she didn't seem to give a damn where we were going. And it was the same for me. The location we would end up at wasn't important to me. Just running off with her was more than enough for me.
We finally ended up at some hill. It was a good distance from the city. Felix was still observing us, however I didn't pay her no second thoughts. She is always watching me either way. I had no problem with her still watching us. And my attention was fully with Patricia either way.
She laid down on the grass of the hill.
"You ever did something like this?"
I observed her shortly, then followed. I laid down next to her and smiled a bit. My answer to her question came naturally, without asking Felix and without thinking about it.
"No, that's my first date as well."
She chuckled shortly, then answered me yet again.
"No, that's not what I meant. Did you ever lie down with someone and just watched the stars?"
I was quiet. This time my answer didn't come out of my mouth instantly. I actually thought about it. I actually remembered something.
And after considering it for a short while I stated my answer.
"No, it's my first time as well."
"Well, it's the same for me yet again."
While I did lie down with Felix some times now, we never watched the stars. Just the sky. Or the ceiling of my room. Also, Felix is a ghost. She ain't 'real'. Not in the sense that makes me and Patricia real. So I don't count those occasions.
"I watched them alone quite often. It relaxed me. Still does, but now it's different..."
"I never watched them. But I can imagine what you are feeling right now. I'm pretty sure I feel the same right now."
"Well,that may very well be."
We laid there in silence. Our arms were spread and finally our hands laid in each other. We kept on watching the stars until she finally moved her body to mine. I held her close. Our faces were closing in and then our lips touched each other. In this silent moment in this quiet night we secretly exchanged our first kiss.
"Felt good?"
"Yes."
We laid there for quite some time, neither moving nor talking nor thinking. We simply laid there.
Then, some time after, we finally left. Together. We didn't hold hands or anything this time. We simply left, next to each other. Then we split. I went home and she went home as well. I didn't accompany her and she didn't accompany me. We simply left.
