❝ I–… ilove you. ❞
she closed her eyes quickly and
wrinkled her nose. was it too soon?
did she just potentially ruined every-
thing with only three words?
❝ That was, um…– that happened
quickly. but, uh – it is true, though.❞
the words came fast,
but the meaning stayed.
love. such a foreign concept
to him. but a concept he always
desired deep down.
never did he imagine a girl
would be saying it to him.
not that he was nessessarily
negative on himself to the
point where he’d believe he
didn’t deserve love– but
the idea never seemed to
have crossed his mind.
but he knew that
she wasn’t alone.
“–I love you too.”
