B. Loski's Point Of View

"Holy hell, it's like I've been waiting forever!" I groaned, purposely being overdramatic. Naomi laughed as she walked towards me. The girl pulled her books closer to her chest and tucked a strand of hair behind her hair.

She quickly licked her lips before speaking, driving me insane of course, "Sorry, I had to ask my teacher something I didn't get."

"You're such a good student." I spoke, in a mocking tone. Naomi playfully rolled her eyes at me, making me chuckle. I threw my arm over her shoulder and we began walking.

I looked down at the girl, if only I'd noticed sooner. I could've been this happy so much sooner! I mean— I'm where I want to be. With who I want to be. Maybe I'm not the exact person I want to be, but I'm getting there and I know that Naomi is a part of that.

Old me was such an idiot. Not that I'm such a genius. But, I should've taken notice sooner. Taken notice of Naomi and how I felt about her. How I feel about her. I mean, I never knew it could be like this.

Love, anyway. I didn't know it could be so comforting and so scary. Make you so happy but also make you lose your mind. I mean— shit— love is a fucking roller coaster. Not to be cliche, but it is. A roller coaster, one you've never been on— at least for me. But I think there's different types of love. I think this is the type that lasts.

How long? I hope forever. I hope this never ends. Me and her. Naomi and I. I want us to be like this— forever. And forever is a long time, but I know that's what I want. I just want to be with her. I have for a long time and now that I am, I don't ever want to lose it.

It's kinda like when you lose something important. And you search and search for it. When you finally find it, you promise yourself you'll be more organized and you won't lose it again. And Jesus, I hope I don't lose her again. I can't. If I did— I swear I might lose my mind.

I love her! Fuck, I love her. More than anything. And that may be dangerous, but at this point I don't give a shit.

"What is it?" Naomi asked, her sweet voice bringing me out of my thoughts. And for once, they weren't toxic. For the most part, they were filled with hope and dreams to be with her.

I smiled lightly, "It's nothing. I just remembered something." I blatantly shrugged it off.

"Okay, if you say so." Naomi spoke lightly, turning her attention away from me as we continued to walk.

I love her, I thought once more. I leaned my head down and pressed a kiss to Naomi's head. Naomi giggled softly before resting her head on my shoulder and I then rested my head atop hers.

Can it get any better than this?
