"So, Pablo, huh?" We were laying in his bed a few hours after we'd arrived and calmed from the standoff with his brother. I'd expected -due to the events of the week prior- that Paul would distance himself but, surprisingly, he'd snapped back pretty quickly. Paul- prior to the arguments we'd had- was a very affectionate person. He talked about how much he loved to hold me, he'd always made me feel good about myself or at least try and he was a source of comfort. I missed how much happiness he brought me.

And laying with him, God, I missed it; his arms held me both securely and leisurely and his legs were intertwined with mine as we watched Netflix on his phone. I had been trying to find something for us to do together, to show him that I wasn't still mad at him and to hopefully cheer him up how he always did for me.

"You really are Picasso."

He'd laughed then, his eyes squeezing shut and he'd pulled me closer to his body. Warmth had sunken in through my skin then, his breathing synchronizing with mine and I just couldn't stop myself from pushing myself further into him so I could feel his breaths and soothing motions on my skin.

"Shut up," he countered and I couldn't help but follow through with my own laugh, "It's my birth name but when we moved to the States, my mom wanted me to have the same opportunities as a full white guy so I went by my English name and I took my dad's last name." Paul Jones, it was an extremely white name and I could definitely see what he meant. Identifying completely as Hispanic on paper would've made his life ten times harder.

Being friends with people so educated on social issues and racism and systematics, I'd inherently became more educated. Benji was a co-founder of a cultural awareness club, something I wouldn't have expected from the first time meeting him and Will was a huge advocate for women's rights, lgbt rights, black right, people of color rights... my friends were great people and my boyfriend was a great person and I couldn't be more content with how much they had changed me.
