it's been what, a week?

he's doing a lot better know. he's back to smiling and laughing, humming to himself and cracking jokes.

he's still hurting, he tells me, but i can tell by the way his smiles are returning he's healing.

and it relieves me. there's just this warm feeling in my heart every time i see him smile.

i feel like his recovery is corresponding to mine.

the more i see him smile, the more the aching and throbbing in my heart fades. even through this whole ordeal, my feelings still haven't changed.

my heart still flutters when he smiles, my cheeks still color when we make eye contact for more than five seconds, and i still find myself thinking about him in the midst of the night.

none of that's changed. and i still don't understand why.
