Surprise Panda Hug

Two days ago, I took the train with Spam, JB, Spencer and his sister Smurfette, Panda and his best friend whom we shall call Scooter. It took forever to actually get on a train because it was rush hour when we got on the platform and nearly all the trains were full like sardines. I think we waited at the platform for almost like an hour.

  Spencer is just so random because in his bag he's carrying a loaf of raisin wheat bread and a jar of peanut butter, so Smurfette, Scooter and I munched on some bread, even if it wasn't allowed.

  Panda kept hugging his cousin Smurfette, messing up her hair and pinching her cheeks and nose til she curses and she starts poking him in the stomach, trying to get back at him. It's just so sweet and adorable the way Panda shows so much affection for his cousin. He's quite protective about her as well, going all, "WHO'S BODY ARE WE BURYING?" everytime one of us brings up a guy's name to her. And he watches over Spam and JB when they happen to be drinking where he's hanging out.

Anyway, us girls were just minding our own business. I just grinned at Smurfette coz she asked me what my height was since I was still taller than her even if she's wearing heels. I still call her Pokemon because she's just so sweet, thoughtful and adorable for a college freshman.

Someone suddenly hugged me from behind. Like, these two long arms just wrapped around my shoulders. I froze because they definitely don't belong to a girl. And I just KNEW who it was immediately. Spam, JB and one of our other friends who happened to be there, Tima- all of their eyes were wide in utter shock from what was transpiring before them but they totally suppressed their reactions to freak out and instead they all just pursed their lips tightly while throwing meaningful glances at me and each other, trying not to smile.

And my mind was screaming, "CALM YO TITS."

Panda chuckled, "oops! Wrong Pokemon." And promptly moved to Smurfette and also gave her a back hug. I was like, "hey!! I'm not THAT short!"

"Nah, just kidding. I knew you'd be offended." He chuckled, pushing the bridge of my glasses up my nose with one hand.

WHY DID I EVER FELL OUT OF CRUSH FOR YOU?

Loving back hugs,
