Buck

Happy three month anniversary babe!! 😘
do you want chicken or lamb for dinner?
anniversary?? of what?
ha! very funny
................ okay
I don’t get the joke
you MADE the joke!
I still don't get it
did you text the wrong person again?
it’s Eddie
what??
I know it’s you!
it's our three month anniversary today
but .......... we've known each other for years
Eddie…
yeah?
are you being serious?
of course
I’m very confused
it's the anniversary of when we started dating
when we WHAT?
remember?
no I don't remember!
when did we start dating?????
I took you for that picnic and then we stayed out for ages-
wait
omg
lmao
hang on a sec
……
you didn't know we were dating????
😂
I still don't know that!
you think we're dating???
WHY
EDMUNDO DIAZ
I have taken you on soooo many dates since then!!
......... you have??
was I on them with you?
YES
... okay..........
so hold on
how do you explain us holding hands all the time?
well, you're a touchy guy
so am I
omg
so every time I kissed you hello or goodbye you also thought those were just platonic kisses???
obviously!!
😂
were they not supposed to be platonic??
no I’ve definitely been working my way up to taking things further
if you know what I mean 😉
😳
this is the funniest thing ever
why did you think I kept calling you babe and sweetheart?
I thought it was a joke that I wasn't a part of
😂💀
not a joke
wow
that is some first class denial you’ve got there
..............
I’m not in denial!
you NEVER said "hey, eddie, I wanna date you" or "let's go on a date" or ANYTHING
how was I supposed to know?!
I didn’t think I needed to spell it out!
I’m sorry
I thought we were on the same page
so hang on
this has been going on for three months???
yeah 🙃
and you never made a move?
well, I was trying to take things slow and do it right, you know?
oh
wow
so there's not something deeply unattractive about me then?
omg no!
you’re extremely attractive and it takes so much self control not to pounce on you
oh, really?
I just don’t wanna mess things up by acting like buck 1.0 cause you mean so much to me
buck ... that's so sweet
I’m just soft for you
wow
cause I love you
omg, you do?
I do
wow
I was gonna tell you over dinner tonight
you were??
yeah
I figured three months was pretty good
pretty safe bet that we were lasting…
didn’t know you weren’t aware of us dating though 😅
uh, yeah
so um .......... where does this put us now, then?
right
good question
um
…. do you want to date me?
yeah
oh thank god
things were about to get real dark
😅
I may not have realised what was going on, but I have been loving the way things are the past few months
🥰
in that case, can I make you dinner tonight for our first official ‘both of us know it’s a date’ date?
yes
great
chicken or lamb?
uh
lamb
excellent choice
......... you're amazingly chill about all this
honestly I can’t believe I’ve been kissing you for three months and you didn’t know what it meant 😂
😩
you know I'm oblivious about these things
definitely gonna have to slip in some tongue tonight
please do
maybe that will help clear things up 😉
if I'd known those kisses were supposed to couple-y I definitely would've given you a lot more in return
yeah? 😏
omg yes
my future just got brighter
I'm gonna kiss you until you see stars
three months worth of kisses in one
😍
that sounds amazing
it will be
hey so, just gotta ask
what did you think the picnic was three months ago??
I thought you were just trying to cheer me up
Eddie…, I literally cut our sandwiches into heart shapes
... to cheer me up
😂
you’re so cute
I'm glad it comes across that way
I feel kinda stupid
this explains so much
it does?
tbh part of the reason I was taking things so slow was cause you never seemed to wanna take things further
I thought you weren’t ready
oh
no
just had no idea what was going on
you wanna take things further?
……. obviously
😅
when?
tonight?
I don’t wanna rush you
you’ve only just found out we’ve been dating for three months, so, if you need more time that’s fine
what if I don't need any time?
then I would love to take things further tonight… 😉
so would I
wow
I can't believe this is really real
lucky for you I already asked Hen and Karen to look after Chris tonight
you did?
yeah
without asking me first? 😅
I wanted to surprise you for our anniversary!
well, you DEFINITELY did that
😂
I wish I'd known we were dating. there's so much I would've done differently
yeah?
like what?
like touching more than just hands
like shoving you against the wall and kissing you until you're breathless
like inviting you inside instead of saying goodnight at the door
like telling you I love you too
…. you love me too?
yeah
I really do, Buck
wow
that’s amazing
the rest of it is also amazing btw
I'm glad you think so 🥰
you just distracted me there with the L word
the ... what word? 😂
but I am DEFINITELY interested in touching more than hands, being pushed against a wall and kissed until I’m breathless and invited inside jsyk
the L word
Love
Love
we love each other
we do 🥰
you're right, that's amazing
right??
maybe I really should’ve said something sooner
actually told you I was taking you on dates…
idk, buck ... even I'm struggling to understand how I missed all the signs
I just didn't want all the new things to stop
I was afraid if I said something about them you'd realise what you were doing and things would go back to how they were before
no
I knew what I was doing
I’m glad
honestly
I have loved these past three months
so have I
taking things slow, just hanging out…
I don’t think I’d change it if I could go back
that’s good
I'm glad my obliviousness didn't leave you disappointed
not at all
there was half a second there when I worried you might not feel the same, but mostly it was just hilarious, sorry 😅
I'm glad you think so
😘
hey, uh ... thanks for telling me
that we’re dating 😅
lol you’re welcome
I can start each day with a reminder if you want 😉
sounds amazing
what are you gonna do to remind me?
I was thinking good morning texts
“good morning boyfriend”
“good morning lover”
hm
“good morning, we’re dating btw”
😅
😇
I was thinking of something more tangible, tbh
ohhhhhhhhhh? 😏
mhmmmm
I could get behind that…
good
just… question
yeah?
if you’re referring to what I think you are… would I be staying over? in order to start the day off with the reminders?
yeah
if you want to
I do
is that like… a permanent thing?
it could be
if you want it to be
really?
yeah
I would love that
so would I
🥰
best three month anniversary ever
😅
…. do you want us to start the counter over?
nope
are you sure?
uh huh
okay, good
cause I got us both gifts to commemorate and they say happy 3 months on them
you got gifts??
what are they?
you wanna know now?
oh, is it a surprise?
doesn't have to be
tell me then
okay
I got us a couple of mugs
they're this kind that come with everything you need to write on them yourself so I wrote happy 3 months on both and added I love you to yours
I was thinking if you wanted you could write on mine?
that sounds incredible. I would love to
🥰
so…
so?
when can I move in? 😇
after I've talked to Christopher
okay
well, I should probably go get the lamb I need for dinner tonight
okay
should I talk to Chris now? Before Hen comes to get him?
oh, if you're asking for my opinion it's definitely yes 😆
I’ll talk to him then
let me know how it goes
I will
great
omg, I just mentioned it to him and he wasn't surprised. then he said "well you've been dating for months”
😂
EVEN HE KNEW AND I DIDN'T
idk if I can go anywhere right now, I'm laughing too hard
😭
🙈
I’m an idiot
yeah but you're my idiot
🥰
yeah I am
😘
so Chris is fine with it?
yeah, he's happy
good
I thought he would be
hey
can I come over?
yeah, of course
it won't be for long cause I do need to buy some things
but I can't stop thinking about kissing you again
and wondering if it'll feel different now that you know 😏
I can't wait to show you
I'll swing by now, then
😍
awesome
see you really soon babe 💛
see you soon, querido
😍😍😍
😘
