We first met nine years ago, seems like a life time.
The first time he spoke to me, he wanted to rip my head off.
As time went by (months and years), he learned to tolerate me, to a certain point we had coffee together.
Lately (this last week-end) a new step was on it's way.
Some call it a 13th Step (dating a newcomer), not for me, not for him, not for us. We just got closer. First of all, we haven't had sex. We just spent the week-end together, talking, cuddling, even kissing (yes, in front of everyone) some warned him ¨I think he wants to do a 13th Step with you, be careful!¨ He replied ¨Yeah, so? And he does it pretty well too!¨ although it wasn't true, we didn't have sex. The thing is, he took a newcomer keytag this week-end, since he relapsed.
Confused? Yeah, you might be, if you don't know what I'm talking about. For those of you who are attending a 12 Step program, might.
The setting: A N.A. Convention
The people: Recovering addicts
The purpose: A celebration of our clean time.
The story: The probable begining of a love story, between myself and Yan.
The update: Just for today...if ever I want to share, you'll know.
The most important is that it's not a 13th Step.
Blake's my boy.
