"You can't love me. It's not possible," she states heartbroken. Stepping closer to me,
her eyes stare longingly into mine. "I can't give you what you deserve," she
whispers.

"But-"

"But I'm selfish." Her words cut me off. "I want-no. Need. I need to be the only one
who has your heart." She reveals, honesty evident in her voice. She steps closer to
me and her eyes suddenly flash with uncertainty, hesitant to continue. Just as fast as
the emotion came, though, it was gone; replaced by a look that broke my heart.
"Please stay." she pleads, tears brimming her eyes. "I need you more than you
know." her eyes and voice display her vulnerability. Her hands, on either side of my
face, hold me gently like I'd suddenly disappear. My heart races in my chest from her
revelation. Her touch. Her presence. Little did she know, my heart was already hers
the moment I laid my eyes on her.

My life had always been predictable. No big surprises; nothing exciting or
stimulating. Everything was simply normal. I was content.
That all changed when I met her. Around her, I was always on the edge of my seat.
Nothing was ever certain and nothing was predictable. She turned my world upside
down, but I wouldn't change any of it. She was exactly what I wanted. Maybe even
what I needed.
