Last night I called S.O.
He was watching the Sox.
I asked if I could join.
He said yes.

He and I
watching the game.
late at night
both are hungry.

We decided to have our usual
Breakfast at midnight.

His kitchen is a mess.
I told him.
I'll clean, you cook.
He agreed.

Standing there in his kitchen
just the two of us.
with baseball highlights
playing in the background.
What a perfect night.
