hypnotic eyes

"It's okay," she breathed, "isn't it?"

She cupped my cheeks in her hands, bringing her forehead to mine.

No, I wanted to say, it's not. But I couldn't find the words. The girl I loved more than anything in the world was right in front of me. She was right there. And I could never disappoint her. Ever.

I stared into her eyes, hazel with flecks of gold. I could get lost in her eyes, I really could. There was so much sadness and pain in those eyes. Pleading. She was pleading with me.

What she had done was so wrong. So, so horrible. I wanted to look past her beautiful eyes, her beautiful face, and push her away forever. She had broken me time after time. I couldn't let it happen anymore.

But I couldn't find the words. Some other part of me whispered, you can sacrifice your happiness for her. 

My heart was telling me to run. And I wanted to listen. But my head told me no, forgive her, it'll be different this time. She loves you. You love her. And I can try, but I can never ignore my thoughts.

"Yes," I whispered. "It's okay."

She smiled and pulled away from me. "I'm learning, my love. I'm new to this. I'm going to mess up. But I love you so, so much. And I'm glad I found someone who accepts me, despite my mistakes. I'm so glad I found you."

I smiled back at her and blinked back my tears. I tried to avoid her eyes. 

Those hypnotic eyes. I was at her mercy, and she knew it. What am I supposed to do?
