I WANT TO fall in love with you. Eight words, one sentence. Yet my mind was replaying it over and over again. This didn't feel real. It couldn't be.
All my life I've always aspired to have love like in the books I read. Is this that love? Some people aren't meant to find love. That's just how the universe made them, and all my life growing up, I've thought I was one of those people. It just feels weird knowing someone actually does like me. I believe it, but do I really?
I want to fall in love with him too. I really do. I want to know everything about him, I want to kiss him, I want him to be the first person I sees when I wake up. I want him. I need him.
"So.." Spade and Jack sat opposite side of me on the couch, me on the other. I had a cup of coffee in hand, whipped cream filled to the brim. They were both watching me eagerly, waiting to hear.
Somehow, someway, they found out and now they're extremely curious.
"What?" I asked, licking off a dollop of whipped cream from the top, avoiding eye contact. "Oh, come on, darlin'. Tell us." Jack said and I set the cup down, taking a breath.
"He just said that.. he wanted to fall in love with me." I went down into a whisper as I got into my point. I didn't mention how he started spewing words last night, confessing anything and everything he might've felt for me. And how he knew so many things about me that no else knew.
Jack and Spade's jaws were at the tips of their toes. They are literally twins, tell me not! "What. You're joking? Cause' no.." Spade put his hands up to his head, grabbing his hair with his jaw still dropped. Gosh, is it all that shocking?
"I'm not.." I picked back up my mug and took another lick of whipped cream. "Is that it? What'd you say? And how exactly did he say it.." Spade and Jack both bombarded me with questions. "I.. said I wanted to too. And he said it how any normal person would?"
"Athena, you won't break his heart, will you?" Jack asked me, watching me with a sort of emotion hidden behind him. Spade mumbling to himself saying how this is crazy and whatever whatever. "I won't. Why would you think that?" I questioned him.
"I don't think that you would. I just.. it's not hard to believe that he would say that. I really see it in his eyes darlin'. It's unlike anything I've seen before. He acts so different around you, so soft when I've known him for like ever and he's anything but soft. But with you," He trails off, ranting and explaining to me. "It's like he has a soft spot for you." Jack was looking down at his feet now, a ghost of a smile on him.
