Imagine

Imagine,
You're sitting in the library after being bullied, sobbing in a corner and reading

Your eyes sting as you recall the days events and tears fall.
You sipe your tears away and just continue reading, you feel a sense of peace washing into you.
The feel of the pages, the smell of the book,
the meaning of the words. The words that could be so short yet hold so much meaning behind them. After all, someone could say, "i love you" but books..?
They have a whole new way of portraying it
You read with a soft smile on your face
Happy and content, you feel someone looking at you from the back.

You turn slowly, the figure behind you came closer and you saw him
The boy who left butterflies in your stomach
The boy you made you laugh
The boy who made you smile
The boy who did it all.
The worst part is, he doesn't know

He walks to you and takes a seat
"I-i need to confess something" he says and your eyes look at him curiously
He takes a deep breath and turns to you
" I really like your smile
Your face
Your eyes
Your dimples
Your hair
But most importantly
I like you, i like it when you read or when you are alone. You have this look on your face when you truly enjoy something. That look of content
When you read, it seems to you like the world has dissolved and you are alone. Whenever you feel overwhelmed, you walk away and find a way to stop it. I see you when you walk to the lake alone. The way that you touch the water and calmness rushes through your face. You smile when you see animals. I like your personality
You're funny, sweet, cute, kind and most importantly
You're unique" as he said that you looked at him, blush coating your cheeks. You smile warmly and he looks at you with a nervous look

"I-i like you too, i like the way you smile when you see ducks waddling,
I like the way you smile at everyone
I like the way you light up their world without even realising it" you smile with blush coating your cheeks

He looks at you, and slowly slides hand onto yours and holding it gently, guiding you out of the library
Holding your hand proudly
As if to say " Shes my girl, mine to love, mine to hold and mine to protect"
Avoiding the stares of the others
The both of you walk out
Hand in hand smiling and laughing
As you think
I found him. I found the boy who will live by my side snd treasure my love as much as himself.
