i adore how.

I adore how your long lashes sit on top of your cheeks when you close to blink your eyes.

I adore how your mouth curved into a smile after you opened the letter I had written just to find a sweet surprise.

I adore how you spoke with caution on the first day you waited for me early in the morning at school to arrive.

I adore how you unconsciously touch your nose when you hold a conversation with me. a cute mannerism, maybe?

I adore how even on busy days, you always find and make ways just to meet and be with me.

I adore how you shy away from me the moment I seem to be recording a video of you, it makes my heart melt.

I adore how you couldn't control yourself the day you confessed and I, too, told you what I undeniably felt.

I adore how you were on that dim night where it created a scene of a boy teasing a kiss, expecting none, only to be surprised after touching her lips.

I adore how your eyes suddenly held the universe of stars when I gave you affirmation to hug me tight after a long week of not being able to.

I adore how you try to protect me and make me feel loved in your own little way. I adore you so much, I truly do.
