“You always cared about me. You were always there for me, but this time felt different. You wrapped your coat around me, picked me up in your arms, and said, ‘When life gets fucking hard, you can always turn to me. You need to run? I’ll run with you, Calloway. Just put on some fucking shoes first.’” She smiles, tears streaming down her cheeks, and I feel another roll down mine. “I realized then that I’d never want to be vulnerable with any other man but you. Someone that understands me. Respects me. Loves me–so wildly. You were the only one. You are the only one.”
A D D I C T E D : | Lilo - you’re easily loveable | Coballoway - nerd stars colliding | Raisy - more than chocolate cake | Gillow - best friend i’ve ever had |
L I K E U S : | Marrow - i share with you, only | Cobaretti - like an italian painting | Lunelly - and we’d go down | Kitsulli - he notices everything|
““I have so many questions,” I say softly, thinking aloud. “I want to know all about you, but I can’t ask fast enough—and when I think about you, I wonder what your hands have held. What your eyes have seen.” My pulse has skyrocketed, but I keep speaking. “What your ears have heard and where your feet have landed.””
“And the road ahead may be filled with more potholes and storms, but I’m not driving down a one-way street. We’re together. Whatever we have to face, that’s all that matters to me. We’re together in love.”
