Blake's POV:

I don't deserve to love her.

There's no part of me that deserves to feel her hand in mine or hear her cute laugh or even to be there with her when she falls apart to help build her back up. I've done and said too many things that I shouldn't have. I'm too insecure in my feelings to tell her that I don't want anything at all unless it's everything with her. Even if in some extreme version of this world I told her how I felt, how could I know what would happen? I can't understand her feelings, but there are things I do know. I know that when we make eye contact, there's this spark that ties us two together. Whenever we're near each other there's something that makes the rest of the room fade and my heart rate speed up. The look in her eyes when she notices me staring, which I can't help, makes me feel like maybe, just maybe, she feels the same way.
