reasons why i love you

reason two

day one

hello again. you did lots of stuff today, on our first day of dating.

we went to the park today, you casually dropped hints about how there was a gay couple in our school holding hands.

"it's adorable," you said, giving me a small smile.

i knew who it was, but i wouldn't tell you that.

i was too scared to grab your hand and lace my fingers through.

maybe one day.

definitely one day.

you met my mum today, soon after she decided to walk the trail, you told me about your dad.

i hate him.

how does one do something like that to their child?

i couldn't imagine, but i'm so glad you're strong.

i poked the bruise out of curiosity, and you flinched away a little.

but that's okay, i still love you.

reason number two: you drop small hints about everything.
