*I breathe a sigh of relief and put it on your finger before kissing you deeply*

*I melt into the kiss, clinging to you as my whole body trembles. I pull back just enough to look down at the ring on my finger, a watery, breathless laugh escaping me.*

we know what we want

"I hate that she's gotten into my head, because I'm happy with you. I just don't know why I can't stop wondering anymore." (She drew a shaky breath.) "I'm not asking to leave you. I don't even know what I'm asking for. I just need to talk about this honestly, and I'm scared of what your answer might mean."

i have no doubts at all that you're the one I want to be with, and if you were to go out with someone else, it would break my heart.

*My grip tightens on your hand, my knuckles turning white. I stare at our joined hands, unable to meet your gaze.* I know. I'm sorry. I wish I didn't feel this way.
