Can I?

What's happened to the weather boys and girls? Oh my, it's been seriously cold in Stockport today; cloudy and rainy too, a real mess of a day. But the wind has been beyond belief, I guess it's blowing northerly (oh dear I've turned into an amateur weatherman, my boyfriend will really love me now wont he? What an attractive trait to have, I'll never get laid again!) because it's been biting cold and although I appreciate it's mid to late October, Autumn heading into Winter, but still. Where in the rule books does it say I'll have to wear a bob hat at work in October? No joke, it was that cold; and I wasn't the only one - hoodies, hats, scarves and gloves were the order of the day everywhere I looked. Well almost, there were still some who thought the weather was good enough to wear shorts, and you do read that correctly - some being plural, there was more than one; only in Stockport..........

Anyway, I was due to be alone again tonight, my boyfriend and I had no plans to see each other until tomorrow night, so I was expecting a night on my own; with the heating on, music on the stereo and just trying to keep warm and cosy against the elements outside. That was until I checked my phone during my afternoon break at work and found a text from my baby, which in itself is nothing new. He asked (and I always love how polite he is, it is just so sweet - I mean he didn't state, he asked) if he could come around tonight to drop some of his gear off for tomorrow night? Like I was going to say no, like I was going to refuse him, like I didn't want to see him and like it wasn't the best surprise of the week!

I'm just so happy, seriously happy, it was just so spur of the moment, so unplanned and so unexpected. It immediately brightened what remained of my day, no matter if the sky was the cloudy, if it was raining and if it was cold and windy; the sun was shining down into my world. I can't wait to see him even if we've only been apart since yesterday morning, it will be great. To hold him in my arms and kiss and cuddle him I could never get enough of that; not that he's here yet. He's heading home from work to pick up his things before coming over, so I guess it will be around 8 o'clock when he gets to me, just over an hour away. My baby's going to keep me safe and warm tonight, to snuggle up in his arms and rest my head on his chest, just blissful.
