03. strawberry

I keep thinking how it feels like to have someone who's willing to be there for you in any minute you need them.

I didn't also saw that coming. I've never been in a relationship since birth so at first I didn't know how to act around. I clearly remember everything. It was September and I didn't thought someone actually is looking at me and is secretly into me. When he admitted it, I don't know what to say, I can't speak and was so shocked. But eventually I sad yes, he can court me. Maybe because when we were kids I was attracted to him already. Then after almost 8 months of courting, I've finally give in and said yes.

And that was the most special day in my life...

-

"Baby."

"Hey." I said as I was looking through his brown eyes so deep I'm drowning.

He kissed my forehead and sat on the chair opposite to mine. He was wearing a white polo shirt and black pants and his slightly neat brushed up hair. He was simply cute without doing so. I smiled.

"So."

"So." he said as his lips turned into a small smile.

I laughed a bit. His simple gestures just made these butterflies in my stomach fly freely without asking them to.

"Oh god. I loved you." I said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

He chuckled. "You know what, I don't really saw this coming." He looked outside as if he was imagining things that has happened eons ago. "You. Me. Us. At first, I was hesitant that maybe it was just a normal attraction, like having a crush, yeah, something like that. But after months of knowing you, of how you acted around me, of how the littlest of what I do made you smile..." he looked straight to me and continued. "of how you cried because you're afraid of the dark and how you got mad at me for joking around that there were ghosts under your bed, of how you called me those cheesy munchy endearment, and so on and so forth. I'm just glad I'd get to know you and that's when I said 'I'm going to fight for you even if the universe won't agree with us." he smiled at me so genuine and sweet I would've melted.

"Making cheesy lines on our first date huh." a playful smile suddenly made its way to his face and then he laugh.

"I'm just glad I met you."

"Me too."

And then he enveloped me into a hug and then cupped my face and then the proximity made its way for our lips to met.

It was my first kiss and it taste like strawberries. It was slow, genuine and has something to do with longing like he's been searching for this on the whole world. I can feel his love. It was true. It was the kind of kiss that means forever. It was also the kiss I knew I had found and don't have the intention of throwing. It was the kiss that will never be forgotten, the first time our lips have met, I swear, it was bound to be with each other. And I'm glad it was him.

I suddenly pushed our lips away from each other and say, "I guess, you we're just the bestest thing that ever happened to me." I smiled at him.

Looking straight to my eyes as if he was saying it to the world. "I guess too. I love you and I will love you until I can no longer found the right words on how much I feel for you. I won't promise not to hurt you but I will try my very best to fix it."

"I love you too and forever will."

And again, it was sealed with a kiss.
