When people first heard that you and Adrian were together, most people laughed. Adrian was this over confident, arrogant, playboy. Which yes he had a lot of confidence, and yes a little bit of arrogance, but definitely not a playboy. He puts on a good show, but confessed to you pretty quickly when you started talking that he just really wanted a relationship.

So he was all those things and you were more of the semi-confident, put everybody first, friends with everyone, girl. Polar. Opposites. It worked so beautifully, though.

It started with him purposefully tripping you, just so he could be there to catch you. Looking back, you roll your eyes. Such a dumb way to get your attention. You still blush though thinking about him trying to get your attention.

From there, it was him walking with you to class or carrying your bags for you. That turned into him finding you during your off periods and depending on them with you. That turned into him FINALLY asking you on a date. Which turned into secretly dating for about four months. Which turned into people slowly finding out. Which leads us to people laughing when they hear that you are not only dating but have been for about six months.

Adrian Pucey was head of heels for you. You turned that man world. He turned yours. That doesnt mean insecurity doesn't creep in though. Its hard to constantly hear about how different you are from your boyfriend, or how it "doesn't make sense". It's not the best to hear but most of the time you can brush it off.

You two were laying in his dorm bed, comfy clothes a must. You were deep in thought, so deep your poor boyfriend was trying to get your attention for about five minutes. You finally snapped out of it when he physically turned your face to his face and he noticed the tears quietly streaming down your face.

Immediately moving you so you were encompassed by him. Arms tight around you, your head against his chest. The tears continue to flow, quietly. Adrian knew that you felt insecure but lately it just overwhelmed you.

You heard a muffled Adrian voice saying, "i'm here. I have you" over and over. He played with your hair gently, trying to ground you.

A few moments later you felt yourself regulate your breathing and pull away to look up at him.

" I'm sorry" you mumbled earning you a frown from Adrian.

"please don't apologize, love. Please" he said in response to your apology.

"Wanna tell me what's going on this beautiful mind that i'm so deeply in love with." He said quietly, wiping the last tears that were flowing.

" I just don't like hearing people always say. Really her? Really him? That's weird. Every time they find out where they are together" you say, being completely honest with him.

One thing you and Adrian do really well is honesty. You both value honesty more than anything and always put it first in your relationship.

You watched as he frowned deeper and sighed. " love, I don't know what to say. I get that way too. But I promise you, I know we are perfect for each other." He said.

You looked him into the eyes and said, "promise?"

"Promise"
