Well shit.

Looks like all we have is each other now. I thought I'd get away with it this time, but I can't actually control my thoughts anymore.

Not when your sun kissed skin is looking so golden. And you let me touch your hair like that.

"Get in."

I shouldn't have. I really shouldn't have.

I spent two hours on my hair last night. But I've spent the last year on you.

And god, when you ask me like that, looking at me the way you have been lately.

I can't say no. I can never when it comes to you.

We're not the same people we were when this all began. In fact, it never began until much later. Because I was under the assumption that you were unattainable. That was before I realized you were so much more than just unattainable. And at that precise moment, lightning struck my hands and the only way to save myself was to find a lightbulb or get electrocuted.

And I think I've said this before but, you're just so bright sometimes I can't even open my eyes.

So in the fleeting moment I had to choose

Choose between walking blindly into this

Or getting struck by a lightning bolt

Anything seemed better than death.

Now I'm not so sure there was ever a difference.
