Each time she did this, it sent a thrill through me. It was like a secret, a quiet exchange between us that no one else could see. And I enjoy making her a blushing mess.

I never expected this feeling
His eyes always find mine, like he knows something that I don't
I try to ignore it, bury it deep, but it grows with every glance, every smile.
I'm afraid of what it might mean, of how much I already want him.
But in those quiet moments, I can't help but wonder-does he feel it too?
**KTH**
I didn't plan for this hunger, this fire that ignites when she's near.
She fills every corner of my thoughts, her presence lingers even when she's far away.
I want to hold her, to make her understand what I feel, but I wait-patient, careful.
The desire to claim her, to make her mine, is growing stronger each day.
But I'll wait, I'll let her come to me, because I know we're meant to be.
