You know that feeling where anxiety claws at your throat and suddenly you can't breathe? You try to suck in even just a little bit of air but it never makes it past the lump in your throat? 
    
    Well that's the feeling I get when Oliver Pickett looks at me. And I mean really looks at me.
    
    Just his stare leaves me incapable of performing basic functions. I can't move, I can't talk, all I can do is stare back into his beautiful hazel eyes. 
    
    Because in that moment he's all I see, all I think about, all I want. And that scares me. 
    
    I never planned on falling in love, but then again love is never planned. It's something that happens suddenly with no warning. One day you just wake up and know. And it hits you like a brick in the face.
    
    Sometimes my fight or flight system goes into overdrive and I just want to run. But he holds me back, and teaches me how to fight. Because in this world you have to fight for things. And that takes just a little bit of confidence.
