It felt really good to give someone I cherish a gift they deserved.

He is normally monotone, logical, emotionless when compared to me.. But I could tell that my ‘surprise’ gift really touched him. He was happy and smiled the whole ride up from xroads. I’m sure he lied about not knowing though, I asked a hoard of ridiculous questions with terrible cover-ups..Good thing his brother helped me out, I really needed assistance since I don’t usually shop for people other than my best friend, running buddy, and boyfriend. It was well worth the $200 I dropped, to see him cheesin’ and all. And it would serve him well. For someone who likes the rush of adrenaline as much as he does, I’m sure it will survive the many places and adventures to come. I also know that he would care for my present to him as much as he cared for me. His quiet, honest caring.

This is what Christmas is about right? Telling the people you care about that you love them. And thanking them for being there for you in one way or another. Thanking them for having to sit through your bitching and drive you home when your car is in the shop. To hold your hair back when you throw up. Or tell you how important of a friend you are to them when they know you’re feeling lower than low. To visit you between busy schedules because he knows you’re been cooped up in the house all day. To pretend he’s not busy or annoyed when he comes to your rescue.

Thank you.
