dedicated to whom?
You.
I've never been the best at elaborating on feelings, but I guess it's worth a shot.
I remember that Saturday full well. It was the eighth of September, a Saturday. The evening setting in, warm with a cool breeze, the kind that nips at your nose and tickles your toes. We were talking as you leaned against your car: your eyes shining and my hands shaking. I was stumbling over words and making myself a fool.
We talked and talked. Lazily letting everything and nothing roll from our lips. Eventually, that night with you came to an end, and I hesitantly turned to go to my car, holding tenderly to the hope that you would stop me there, beg me not to go. And you did just that. You reached your hand to me, and pulled me in, asking if you could have a good-night kiss, my answer was a simple Asian-eyed smile. Your arms wrapped around my waist and your lips brushed mine. I swear, the wind stopped there.
We ended up making plans to hang out again soon, I got those butterflies I always get with you, while I was getting ready. When we met up it was perfect, you were in your hoodie, the black one that I absolutely looove on you. The long talk we had previously, continued on, delving deeper into our lives, letting each other in a little bit further. You took the walls I had up and made them little twigs, crushing them with one simple breath-taking smile. And how could I forget when I "officially" met Todd. That was so silly.
September 14, the day you called me your girl. I wouldn't have been so taken aback if it weren't for a previous conversation we had had. "I just don't like labels, I'm not really wanting a relationship" that kind of thing. Don't get me wrong, I was more than okay with just laying low, who needs to rush things. But then you casually threw the idea out that I was yours. And I ate that shit up. Haha, I really did though. I wear that label proudly: hold it close to my heart and treasure it greatly.
Now, it's September 24, a few days after I came straightforward with my feelings, and I honestly cannot be happier. A month ago, I would have never guessed that this is where I would be. Where WE would be. But I'm so glad it turned out like this. The smiles that warm my heart, the hugs that make the world brighter, and the kisses that make my knees weak. I love it all.
Thank you, babe, for everything, the past three weeks have been simply divine. (:
