My Law Student

I slept over at Josh's house the other night. I really do cherish every moment I spend with him. He asked me what my favorite times are with him, and I really didn't have to think much. My favorite moments are when we sleep together. It's so sweet to be able to roll over in the middle of the night and have the person you love right there next to you. You can listen to them breathe and feel the small movements as they dream. Josh calls me a spider monkey when I sleep. I like to be as close as possible to him no matter what. Whether it's being the little spoon, wrapping his arm over me to cuddle, or just draping my legs over his. I love being with him, in every aspect possible.
He had school the next day. It was the last day of his pre-law school session and he had an exam. Seeing him in his element with the other law students was nice. After the exam, he and I cut out and got lunch together. We had Cuban food with a pitcher of watermelon mojitos to share between us both. It felt like an adult date. I'm not sure why - maybe it was the adult drinks? The nice setting? The amazing food? Or maybe just the realization that we're both growing up, not just me.
After our lunch, we made a quick pit stop home, then headed back to his school. There was a family and friends BBQ that he wanted me to attend. Me being the introvert I am, I wasn't a huge fan of meeting new people. The introduction began and certificates were given out to the program graduates, and they welcomed as official students to the law school. A speech was made by some woman, I can't remember her roll. Maybe a Dean? But she asked the family and friends a few questions. Why do we want our law students to go to law school? And what's in it for us? I really had to think about that answer. I tease Josh all the time that I'm just using him for his rich lawyer money, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. I wouldn't care if he became a shitty public lawyer being paid shit money. As long as he was happy doing what he was doing, that's all I'd care about. I want him to go to law school because that's what he wants. He loves history and the law and fighting for what's right. Josh has a pure heart, and it's very clear to me that he'll be the best lawyer possible. The woman said that the upcoming first semester was going to be the most difficult. Relationships will be tried and strained. Arguments will be had and silent treatments may be given. But in the end, the strongest relationships will survive. I believe Josh and I will make it. We have to. I've already fallen for him too hard to give up over some bullshit I know will pass. I've endured a lot of nonsense over the years, and I finally found someone who's worth enduring it for. I love my law student.
