Hitch

Friday night was one of those nights. The kind of night where everything feels right.

Yesterday our swim team had a dual meet against an inner city team which wasn’t known to be the best, but we did well at the meet! I swam these events and got the corresponding times:

50 Butterfly 25.something

200 Individual Medley (all 4 strokes) 2.13.something (I hate this event so much it makes me feel like poop)

100 Free 54.04

100 Free(Relay) 53.96 (I broke the 54 second barrier!!)

I was quite happy with my times they were close to best times and at the beginning of the season that’s pretty good.

Something that made me even happier was Duke showed up to my meet with a few other kids from his school (one of them is dating my friend on the team). He tried to surprise me but I got a feeling when he flat out stopped texting me around the meet time. It was so nice having him there, cheering me on.

After our win at the meet, I had to go to a swimmer party for a little bit. This is the party where the varsity kids are supposed to bond with the JV swimmers which I’m pretty sure we accomplished and in the meantime Duke went to go watch some hockey while I partied. We met up after about an hour and went back to my house. This was the first time this night I was able to truly kiss him. It was magical. We have come to appreciate each other even more after our little patch of drama.

We had to do something at my house so I could cuddle with him so we grabbed the first movie we saw, Hitch, and went downstairs. If you asked me what the plot of Hitch was I couldn’t tell you. We “watched” it twice. We cuddled, kissed, gave massages and really connected in ways we haven’t in a while. We talked for hours we figured out our relationship and I really can say I appreciate him WAY more than I did before and I think the feeling is mutual. After about 12 Duke had to head home but I slept sound thanks to our wonderful night.

Today, our team competed at an invite in the middle of nowhere. We were seeded 4th and got 3rd + a plaque?( the trophy kind). Although our team didn’t really save enough energy for the meet we did ok. I swam the breast today and got a 1.05.76 which is about 5 seconds away from my goal so I need to drop some major time to be competitive for college swimming. I’ll probably do a video this week and post some swimming pictures that my mom took. Now I have to try to find plans for tonight it seems I always have plans EXCEPT on saturdays. Wish me luck! Have a good weekend all!
