it's funny, he thinks, as they are sprawled across the brown ribbed couch of his brother's, his hand lost in the jungle of her hair. he could practically hear what she thinks whenever she furrows her eyebrows but their kisses are as awkward as ever, like a pair of mormon lovers. their noses bump and their teeth click and movements are startled and jerky. still, it's amazing because it's like they've never really settled, never really crossed that 'institution' level where most couples older than 7 months are called. everyday is still a discovery. he still doesn't know exactly where and what that makes her gasp and go breathless.
but today is different.
