So yesterday was his birthday

And I spent his birthday eve with Leo. The guy he's getting jealous with.

The guy I promised I'd do his assignment for.

But I was the one who begged him to give me his assignment. So I can practice my brain and to not leave it on hiatus for so long.

He was going to go out. Wait scratch that. He went out.

And yours truly drove him so he doesn't have to drive back.

I picked him up at 11:20pm. I left Leo for half an hour to drive my boyfriend to Surfers.

Where he can get massively drunk and hopefully not pick up any chicks.

Babe, can we go to Hollywood?

He asked me the other night. Hollywood is a strip joint in Surfers. I told him that I go to stripclubs in Brisbane with my cousins.

It made me happy that he wants me to go to a strip club with him. But I got worried.

Why would he want me to go to a strip club with him.

So I can imagine you with the chicks. I don't have to be a part of it. I just have to watch.

How romantic. He still thinks of me. Ugh.

No, seriously, I feel comfy enough with my girlfriend that I can take her to anywhere with me without having to deal with thinking what she thinks of me. You rock, baby.

That's better.

I dropped him off at Surfers International. Then as I was driving home, I got a message from him.

At exactly midnight, this is what he sent me:

Come out babe. I want my little panget with me. Please babe, for me? Please?

I wasn't dressed for it. I knew he wanted to spend his birthday with his friends. So I left it at that.

At two o'clock he called me up. And yes, I was still at uni.

He was walking home. He didn't ask me to come pick him up even though I promised him I would.

My panget will not be my personal driver. You're my princess you shouldn't drive me around.

True, but I'm not going to let my baby walk to Surfers in the middle of the night pissed drunk with a lot of pissed drunk people - as as himself, walking around.

I spoke to him althroughout his walk.

Then Moto, my phone died on me. It's becoming so unreliable these days I'm thinking of changing it.

The last text I got from him was;

I'm going for a little swim in the river to cool off, babe. I'll speak to you tomorrow.

Nerang River. There are bullsharks there. And what kind of person would go for a swim at 2AM in a bullshark infested river?

Emmet, that is.

I got woken up yesterday morning with him saying;

Good morning panget. How's my baby going today? I'm up and on my way to the airport. I'll be getting on a fighter plane, panget!!

I found it hilarious. How can he get on a fighter plane when he has a hangover? How can the plane do acrobatic mumbo jumbos? He'd spew that's for sure.

Then this afternoon, I got a call from him.

I feel sick, babe, he mumbled.

It's like getting on a Superman Escape over and over, he moaned.

I had to bite my tongue to keep from going off at him.

Of course he'll feel sick. He was drunk last night and didn't get enough sleep. Then he woke up the next day and got on a fighter plane.

But I'm his girlfriend and not his mum so I left it alone.

Do you want me to bring you any tablets, I asked.

No, it's ok, I'm just going to lay on my bed. I'll make sure to get mum to call you for my funeral, he groaned.

Lovely.

Since my boyfriend was out of commission for the day, I organised for Leo to meet up with me at uni to finish his assignment.

We were writing like mad and studying like crazed people on ecstasy.

I got a call from my boyfriend at around 8pm telling me that his best friend is taking hmi out for pizza.

Then ten minutes later, he called telling me that he's outside uni.

He actually got out of bed to come see me. On his birthday. Even when his tummy is doing sommersault.

I found that utterly sweet. And simply irresistable.

So me, being known for being a PDA-hater grabbed him in front of Alex, his best friend and gave him the tightest hug and the biggest kiss that made Alex go eeww and made my boyfriend sigh.

Totally out of my comfort zone. But nevertheless, I know the guy cares about me.

Big time.

The more time I spend with him, the more I'm getting the affirmation that there might be something there.

Something very promising.
