Untouched Love

15

I swear this boy can't watch any movie without falling asleep, so I suggested we just went down to his room to take a nap together.

The moment we laid there together and I ran my fingers through his hair he was asleep instantly. I didn't end up falling asleep because my mind was running wild. Running wild with all these emotions and thoughts that grew stronger for him every second I laid my eyes on him. Everytime we were driving and the caramel colored skies bounced off his soft skin I fell in love with him more. All the times we'd stay up in bed until 4 am intertwined in each others bodies, everytime I'd rest my head in the palm of his hand as his fingertips would get tangled up in my hair. All these times I fell for him harder. Fell for him like I have never fallen for anyone else. It was just so different with Andrew.

In that moment I wanted to let him read all the things I had been writing about. I know I had been wanting to wait weeks, even months, but when I feel this strongly for someone, it's hard to hold everything back, and in this moment I just want him to know everything.

After an hour in my thoughts I was finally able to rest my eyes, nuzzled into his chest, falling asleep to the rhythm of his heartbeat.

What was supposed to be an hour long nap turned into us sleeping straight through the night. We woke up at 10 am tangled up together, crazy bed head and sleepy morning voices.

I giggled and brushed his messy hair out of his face and pulled it back. "Good morning sleepy head."

He was too tired to even let a word escape his tired lips, so he smiled and kissed me gently on the forehead.

I still can't stop thinking about what this "nothing" was that he kept telling me...I feel like it's something important and it's killing me to not know.

I turned to him and grabbed him by the face. "Listen here mister, I think it's finally time you tell me what "nothing" is." I said in a sassy tone.

"Alright but you better pay attention." Before my mind registered what was happening, he covered my ears with his hands and mouthed the words. It all happened so fast that I only caught a glimpse of what he said...

"Hey that's not fair! I wasn't even paying attention, do it again!" I played it off, pretending I didn't know exactly what he said.

"Nope, sorry, you only had one chance!"

He said "I love you".

I may have only caught a glimpse of his lips, but I knew for a fact that's what he said...and my heart skipped a beat when I saw it. I didn't want to be the first to say it because I felt as though that was moving too fast or that "love" wasn't the right word to describe how I felt about him, but I truly believe that I do love him. Knowing that he is feeling these feelings at the same pace as I am makes everything just fit together like a puzzle piece that was missing.

We ending up taking Paprika for a morning walk around the block then treating her to a pup cup.

It was another depressing gloomy day out so sadly we couldn't really go out and do much today. Another lazy day it was...

He hadn't played his game with his friends for the last couple of days so that's how he spent the most of the day while I sat in his bed, drawing until boredom took over after a few hours. I know most people would probably just head out and go do their own thing but I didn't care if we sat in silence for hours while he did his ow thing. Just being in his presence and looking at him, hearing him talk, watching how the left side of his lips curved just a little more than the right when he laughed. It's the little things that I appreciated.

January 24th

Today was actually a bit nicer of a day finally! We went for a long walk and bought tickets to see a movie later on.

I don't know why we're always so tired when we're together, but I swear 80% of us hanging out is just sleeping, and honestly I'm ok with it because I love how safe I feel in his arms.

It was time for us to head down to the theater. We got drinks, foods, snacks then sat in silence for 2 hours. Surprise surprise he feel asleep during the movie...I guess it didn't matter whether it was movies at home or the theater. He would fall asleep no matter what. It made me laugh, watching him cock his head back up as his snoring would disturb his slumber. I would never bring it up when it happened, I would just smile and giggle at him when he woke up and just enjoy the absolute confusion painted across his face.

After the movie ended we ran through the parking lot, trying to escape the crisp cold air that ran through our air. As soon as we got into the car we were yelling and laughing, waiting for the heated seats to warm up, which by the way, leather seats are not fun in the winter...

He grabbed my hands and rubbed them against his, trying to warm me up quicker. We shared a glance as our cheeks were in pain from laughing so hard. He leaned in for a kiss that quickly turned into a passionate moment. Lips so close it's like we were one person. Before we got too carried away we both pulled back and stared into each others eyes.

"I just can't get enough of you. I like you so much." He said with a flustered smile and slightly out of breath.

I turned away so he wouldn't see me blush.

"I really like you too..." I said as he kissed my forehead, causing my nose to scrunch.
