This time I was the one daring her to tell me I was wrong. We were both stressed out. Until a few minutes ago, I was calling her love into question too. I tried to reason with myself, but my angry brain wouldn't let me.
How could she hear I love you out of my mouth every day for months and still not believe me?
She shrugged, a tear escaping her eye and asked, "Do you?"
Without a second thought, I pulled her close and kissed her lips. I was f*****g furious, but old habits die hard. When she made me mad, I just wanted to touch her. Let her comfort me even if we weren't on the same side.
Can't you see how stupid in love with you I am?
I gave up everything for her. My family, my friends, my career, my very identity. I was on the verge of offering her my body to do with as she pleased
