The last time Christine was at my apartment, nothing happened. It was a wonderful night (well, at least the part of it that happened after I picked her up from her botched date with that loser I fired, was wonderful). We talked, and laughed, and played video games as she yelled at the screen until we both cracked up. And then she fell asleep in my arms and I knew I was screwed. Screwed because I knew I could never feel this way about anyone else other than her.

Tonight’s mood is different. Tonight, it wasn’t Christine that needed me to come and rescue her, it was the other way around. I had spent all of last night lying awake in my bed and thinking about how much differently my life would have been if I had met Christine years ago. After I got through that self-torture, I thought about my future and what it would be like if she wasn’t in it. I thought about my company and all the rulers, both written and unwritten, that were part of the corporate game that I played. By the time the night had ended, and I was still lying awake in my bed at four o’clock in the morning, I realized that I didn’t care about any of it. I cared about having Christine and that was all.

All day long at the office, I was consumed with thoughts of her. I was upset that she was hurt last night and upset that she was so quick to avoid me and run off with Sarah at work. I was mostly upset that I didn’t get to see her at all during the day. I sat in my office and thought of how I could make it right and how I could make it so that we could be together. At the end of the day, I still hadn’t come up with a solution, and by the time I was standing at the elevator door when Christine came up, I didn’t even care anymore about finding one. I only cared about telling her how I felt.

I had planned on going home to think about the best way to talk to her about it, a way that she would know how much she meant to me and how little I cared about everything else. But then, there in that elevator, I just couldn’t hold it together any longer.
