This is the happy Merome I promised. The song is Hey There Delilah by Plain White T's, to which I don't own, or take any credit for the song. This song reminds me of my younger childhood... Ah, memories... Uh. Important note at the end regarding my internet over the weekend.
Mitch was cuddling with Jerome, watching a comedy movie. Every time the bacca would laugh, it boomed in his ear, calming him down and making his move closer to Jerome. The latter would then smile down at him and manage to pull him closer.
Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true
Once the movie ended, Jerome would carry a sleeping Mitch up to their bedroom and lay him down on the soft bed, lay down next to him, and then pull the blankets over their bodies, slinging an arm around the boy's waist to pull him closer before falling asleep.
Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side
That was two years ago, the night before Jerome had left to attend college. Mitch was sad, of course, but proud of his biggums. They would talk over the phone once a week, whether Jerome was busy or bored.
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Mitch had only been to the campus once, when he had gathered up enough money to get a plane ride from Montreal to New York. He didn't tell Jerome, having decided to surprise his biggums.
Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me, girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
Jerome had been surprised, that was for sure. They were able to be alone since Jerome had gotten an apartment, instead of living in the dorms. But Mitch was only able to stay a week, since both of them had something they needed to work on.
Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
The others would say the occasional jokes, but they were only that. It was only kidding around, but they made sure not to push it past the line. Mitch and Jerome would joke around with them, and Mitch continued to do so even without his fluffy. He made sure to keep his hopes up so that he would be the same when Jerome came back.
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Mitch marked the calendar each passing day, crossing off the days until he would be able to hug his lover again. He would watch the movies they loved to snuggle up against each other just to have that feeling that Jerome was still with him. He would imagine that Jerome was right next to him, pulling him closer.
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
But he didn't live in the past. He continued moving forward, just like Jerome was doing. He made new friends, continued making new videos, and making people laugh. He made sure to stay happy, to stay the same Mitch that Jerome loves.
Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This one's for you
Mitch had been planning a surprise party for his love the moment he had the day that Jerome would be flying back on the plane. He worked everyone, making them help in the party decorating. But he planned everything by himself, so that it would be a genuine party just from him. Everyone got into places on the day Jerome had flown back the moment there was a knock at the door.
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.
Mitch opened the door and leaped into his furry bacca's opened arms.
So, this is something important. I will be going with a friend to her family's cottage, but I won't be bringing my laptop. Which means that I'll be off from 5 o'clock Eastern Time on Thursday, at least around that time. I won't be able to work on anything, so anything I have promised to do will either be worked on in the short time I have before, or done after. I could make some progress on a one-shot I have planned, but I think I'll focus on my main stories. I decided to stay up and finish this since I only need five hours of sleep anyways. I'll see my clanmates later! KK, so, BYE!
