My phone call with Josh ended when his roommate called him to dinner. After he'd gone, I decided I should probably eat too.

I wasn't feeling that hungry, but I knew I had to eat something. I got up off my bed and went into the kitchen to take a look into the fridge. Pulling out some bread, sliced turkey, and cheese, I made myself a basic sandwich.

I took my sandwich over to the couch, where I sat. Turning on my TV, I flipped through the channels. It was mostly just the usual trash. I eventually settled on some cartoons. Call me childish, but I was always content to watch cartoons. They didn't showcase all the usual slutty or depressing garbage that shows for people my age had.

On one of the commercial breaks, I texted Jenna to ask how she was doing, but she didn't respond. She likely was resting.

After I'd finished my sandwich, I watched the rest of the cartoon. Then I turned off the television and went into my room to get ready for bed. I brushed my teeth, put on my pajama pants and t-shirt, and turned off the lights in my apartment. Then I climbed into bed, laid down on my back, and stared at the ceiling.

My mind went immediately to Josh. I'd enjoyed our conversation on the phone earlier; he was easy to talk to, and that was a bit of a rarity with me.

I loved thinking about Josh. There was so much to think about: his bright red hair, his laugh, his eyes, his smile.

My mind kept slowly wandering back to the kiss we'd shared the other night, but I kept pulling back. I didn't know what to think about it. It was my first kiss with someone who wasn't a girl, and I felt a little guilty for liking it.

And, besides that, what did the kiss mean? Were we friends? More? Maybe it hadn't even happened, maybe it was a figure of my twisted imagination.

I thought about calling him right then and there, but it was eleven at night, and he was probably asleep or otherwise busy, and I didn't want to bother him.

So, instead, I rolled onto my side, nestled my head in my pillow, and fell asleep.
