"I Am Nick's Hat" |
I am Nick's hat.
I am one of many, like so many of his other possessions. I have been called "sexy". Or maybe they were speaking of the two of us together? In any case, we two go hand in hand. Or hat in hand, as the case may be.
I am white hat, fortunately no relation to my closet-mate, white stocking hat. White stocking hat was most recently seen at several press conferences. I shudder when I see it on my Nick and wonder sometimes at his lack of judgement. But the fans seem to love it, and I hear there was a proliferation of pictures sent across something they call the internet.
But I am more reserved. I am formal, usually saved for award shows or photo shoots. My blond boy looks wonderful in white, doesn't he? So innocent ... so angelic. Ah, the secrets that must lurk in his heart and the stories that could be told by those perfect lips. I quiver at the thought.
See? See how he holds me? He loves me, else why would he take such gentle care with me? The look on his face is one of pure devotion and I cherish our times together. Alas, he is on tour now. It will be many months before we are together once again and I would weep if I could. For now I must content myself with memories and live in anticipation of the day he returns to me.
I am Nick's hat.
