to the girl i love

7/6/18

hi,
        yesterday, we finally told each other that we like each other. but, you said something that made me fall for you even more. you told me that you know that i'm not ready for a relationship right now and that you respect that. you told me to take all of the time i need and to tell you if i ever feel unsure or uncomfortable with you, because the last thing you want is for me to feel uncomfortable. i've never felt more loved or wanted than in that moment.
today, all i can think about it how much i want to be with you, but i know now isn't a good time for me to be in a relationship. i just want to cuddle you and watch stupid movies until we fall asleep in each other's arms.
i find it sort of funny how no matter what, we always end up being pulled back to each other. i guess that's what you'd call fate; if you believe in that kind of thing. all i know is that my heart races when i think about you, my cheeks hurt from smiling way too much, and my face is forever a shade of red. so, i guess that's what people call love.

love,
