These bonds are shackle-free...

He likes me back!
Woo!
*dances*
Okay
Got that out of my system
Kinda
Sorta
Not really
Heh..
Sorry
It's just it was unexpected and it has made me very happy
I'll try to retail the tale as best I can
Rewind to yesterday:
I was at his house as I had been for most of the day
His brother Joshua had been watching Jackie's baby up in the loft for a while so we decided to take over for him
After watching Austin for a while and just kinda standing there akwardly he turns to me and asks "So, you really want to go out with me?"
It took all my self control to keep my composure. I'm not good in situations like those, as I'm not very used to them
I told him yes
Then of course came up the subject of age
He said he does like me, but the fact that he's three years older then me, and past the 18 mark might be a problem
I told him what I tell everyone: it's not really that big of a difference. When I'm 18 he'll be 21 and no one would care then
It was a nice talk, honest, open
Hopefully this will all work out
But this is enough to make me content for now
