Let's have a late night conversation on the roof while we stargaze

Let's go on a late night 3 am drive and forget about everything

#I can’t remember who said it but I remember someone mentioning how penn and leighton convey So Much with their eyes#and it really shines here#in the first gif you can see how dan’s whole demeanor just changes from guarded to compassionate in a split second because blair allows#herself to slip vulnerability in front of him#the second you can see the sheer sadness in blair’s eyes whenever she tells chip that she’s the problem#SHE BELIEVES IT#the dead eyes in the third. the teary realization that she CAN do better and that she NEEDS to do better#in the fourth#and in the fifth you can see her legitimately seeking an answer from him. she gives him this vulnerable yet self-deprecating look that she#only allows him to see#the way they both look at each other in that sixth one!#dan giving blair the most warm loving look and she is so smitten. she has an understanding of what he is telling her#and she is CHARMED#AND THE SEVENTH IS THE SAME THING#dan is compassionate to her (something that none of her other romantic interests did) and it has an effect on her#the girl whose life ripped her to pieces and rebuilt herself with armor. the girl who would never let herself trust others despite her#romantic heart#THE UNDERSTANDING AND WARMTH OF THE EIGHTH GIF!!#they See each other and have this unspoken love that shines through their eyes#then the final gif… SHE SEES HIM!! EVEN WHEN HE’S NOT PHYSICALLY THERE SHE SEES HIM (via @insistonyourcupofstars)

i spend my days waiting. waiting for the water to boil and my tea to be ready. for spring to come back. for more daylight. the oil in the pan to heat up. a “hey i miss you” or “can you help me out for a second?” or “you want to hang out?” text. for my phone to finish charging. for good news. flowers on the table. the next hug. “hey, you got the job!”. waiting for the sun. to set. to rise. to see both. for summer to be around the corner. a good song. a falling star. a text back. i spend my time waiting to be remembered. i spend my time repeating that tomorrow will be better. tomorrow will be better. i spend my days waiting and waiting and waiting. i spend my days waiting unbearably.
