Falling for someone who only wants to be friends with benefits isnāt the best option. Itāll hurt like youāve been dating for years.
Gods, I'm playing a dangerous game with him. I fucked up when I started to feel butterflies.
I've lied to everyone, even myself convincing them we're just friends when we did so much more that night. Maybe he was right... maybe being that intimate wasn't the best option.
I can't even look him in the eyes without wanting to pepper kisses along his face, or run my fingers through his hair. I lie and tell him his smirk doesn't make me weak but, every time I always end up with the biggest and dumbest smile. It's so hard convincing him that we're just friends but he plays it off so nonchalantly.
I'm hurting myself doing this but I'm so sickeningly happy that no one even knows what happens between the sunset and just before the sun rises. Every night we've spent together, the more I end up loving his flaws and faults. I look at his imperfections so perfectly. I can't get his touch and sounds out of my head.
Gods I definitely can't get his voice out of my head. Heās always in my head and do close to me, yet so far. There is a lot of distance between us, and I spent so much time and gas to just spend 6 hours with him.
You probably thinking I'm a fool. But I don't think you can blame me for everything I'm doing for him. He does so much for me. He tries to make me feel comfortable when weāre intimate, make sure I'm okay and having a good time. Heās so gentle with me, but he acts so tough when we're around others. I'm so glad no one gets to see him the way I do. I'm so happy no one gets to feel how gentle he can be, or how soft his voice gets, or see how sleepy he gets when his head is being rubbed, or how his breath smells when heās just woken up. There's so much I want to experience with him, but everything we've done so far has been confusing yet magical.
I doubt he knows everything weāve done has been a dream come true.
Should I list them off for you?
I never thought I'd see the sunrise beside him.
I never thought I would feel his hands against my body.
I never thought he would say my name so groggily yet so happily.
I never thought we'd stay up all night, our hands never leaving each other.
I never thought I would be so close to him, so so very close. I can still feel his breath against my neck and the quickness of his heart beat while I placed soft kisses against his body.
I never thought I'd be able to leave a mark on him.
I never thought I'd be a first for him. His very first intimate partner. His very first everything. I'm the first to make him feel this way.
I never thought heād let me kiss him because I know he doesnāt like germs but I'm so glad he let me at least plant kisses against his neck and leave a mark against his collarbone. God he doesn't know how hard it was to stop smiling and giggling, I can still hear his voice asking me why I'm laughing.
I wish I could tell him how I feel but I'm okay with this, no matter how bad it hurts. I'm so grateful to experience this with him.
