We were both completely wasted. Blabbering nonsense to each other. Suddenly he falls to his knees. It's not until I try to help him up that I realize this fall was intentional. "I need you," he says without a stutter.
"What?"
He grabs my knees holding himself with my clothes in a desperate attempt at keeping close to me "I-" The glaze in front of his eyes could be caused by alcohol, but I don't trust that idea.
"Please, please."
And he cries-literally cries while looking at me "I love you" he tells me between two sobs.
"I love you too, but what-" He hugs my waist, and I grow fearful that he's going to admit something he did. Oh, God, did he cheat on me? Is that why he's crying? "Baby? Is something wrong?"
He wipes his tears on my clothes and looks up, shaking his head "I'm just overwhelmed and drunk." I frown and caress his hair. I'm waiting for the announcement to come. I'm waiting for the guy I'm in love with to break my heart as the others did.
"Want to get some burgers?" He says, both hands around my waist still. And I'm smiling because I realize that I'm in love with a guy that loves me so much he's overwhelmed, nothing else and that's a wonderful feeling.
