"Hey." He said sitting down across from you at the restaurant you had chosen.
It looked like he had just gotten off of work at the Detroit Stamping that had just fired him a couple of months ago, it's only because he begged and pleaded with them to give him his job back that the boss reconsidered. But not without cutting his pay until he can prove himself he was actually ready to work instead of always running off to participate in the local rap battles at the Hip Hop Shop.
But none of that was why he was sitting here across from you.
This was a bit more deeper than that.
"Hey." You said back putting on your best brave face as you met those blue eyes that made your smile just a bit more genuine.
"So what's up?" He said.
You bit your lip trying to think of a way to cut to the chase without wasting anyone's time. Lord knows you've been ducking around this conversation for months now and you both knew the game was getting more than a bit old.
So you said the first thing that came to mind.
"I Don't Love You." You said bluntly.
Your eye immediately met his to see what his reaction would be, and it was honestly a lot more conflicted than you though it would be.
"So what are we doing here?" He asked his tone short, but you could tell he had more to say, but before he could finish you interrupted.
"Let me explain.." You said taking a breath.
You thought for a second as a waitress layed down a couple of glasses of water next to you both assuming that you guys were going to order something.
Only you knew that this conversation was probably going to be over before the ice in the glass of water could even melt.
But you thanked her anyway as your attention focused back onto the man in front of you, "I'm fat." You simply stated.
You immediately saw him open his mouth to retort but you shook your head and continued.
"I'm over weight, and tired, and one of my boobs is just a little bit bigger than the other." You said letting out a small chuckle, "I tried to open the fridge and one of the doors came off this morning and instead of calling someone to come and fix it my first thought was.."Wow now I can get to the Ice Cream a little bit quicker." and then I sat and thought about that but only after most of the ice cream was gone and I realized that that is very sad." You said.
"So then that brought me to the question of you." You said sighing. "Because I looked in the mirror, like really looked at it, and I realized there wasn't a single thing about me that I could actually say I loved." You said wiping a few stray tears as you let out a little chuckle that could easily double as a sob.
"So then I thought..How could I possibly love you, when I don't even love myself?" You said staring up at him.
It was silent for a little while so you took a sip of the water that very much still had ice in it and just waited for some kind of reply.
Until..
". . .Both of my ears are big." He said bluntly.
You immediately choked on the water letting out a few vicious coughs that gained attention from the other patrons in the restaurant.
But you eventually regained your breath and composure as your coughs shifted into laughs.
"Is that all you got outta that?" You asked genuinely.
"I mean they are...and I can kill some Ben & Jerry's too." He shrugged giving you a small smirk as you continued your laughing.
"And I don't love myself all the time either..especially when I lost a battle at the shop." He admitted. "But.." He said his voice drifting for a second.
"I still find room to love you." He said honestly.
Your heart shifted and your mouth flew agape before you looked down. "Yeah?" You said.
"Yeah..Look, I don't know all of your inner struggles or how you feel about yourself, but I love you, so whenever your ready to be loved you hit me up." He said softly but in a tone you could tell was nothing but serious.
"I'll do that." You said as you watched the ice in your cup slowly begin to melt.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
