but it's better if you do

ix. HIM

" i need you. 

i've needed you ever since the first day my eyes landed on your beautiful ones. 

i've needed your words when my jokes became annoying, 

your polite voice telling me to stop, or throwing me a knowing look. 

you knew that i only joked when i was feeling uncomfortable,

you knew that other people made me feel out of place.

i thought that my humor was what kept everyone together,

but i figured out that if they were real friends, i shouldn't have to be the glue to our friendship.

unlike the others who only laughed at my self deprecating jokes, 

you would hold my hand and send me a sweet smile. 

you're sweet, george. sweeter than honey. "
