The way she knows what you mean before you finish your thought.

When she kneels for you.

The way she whimpers and nuzzles into you when she wants attention.

The way she smiles up at you before you kiss her.

When she has tiny hiccups.

The way she counts syllables of song lyrics on your arm with her fingers.

The way she pets your beard while you choke her.

The way she tries to hold back her smile when she tells cheesy jokes.

The way she casually wanders into your dreams.

When you woke yourself up, talking to her in your sleep.

When your brain knows she isn't yours anymore, but your heart still violently dissents.

The way she cares for the people she loves.

When you conceded that you might be "a narcissist" and she corrected you, saying, "you're my narcissist."
