Will She Love Me Tomorrow?

Will she love me tomorrow? Does she even love me today? All those things we said in that room…do those words still mean something? So many questions. I'm beginning to think too much, over analyzing everything. Just like she does.

I know she still feels the same, but how long will that last? One day she's going to wake up, look in the mirror, and say enough is enough. She'll move on and our opportunity will be lost. Why she hasn't baffles me. She could have anyone she wanted. Someone young and smart. Someone who hasn't been hardened by tough times. Someone who isn't restricted from loving her.

I tell myself all I want is for her to be happy. That's true on many levels. But then there's that part of me, deep down, that doesn't want anyone else to know Samantha Carter the way I want to. The territorial, primal instinct that wants her for myself. Perhaps it has to do with that touched virus all those years ago. Or maybe I'm just acting like a two year-old, wanting to scream 'Mine!' when anyone comes near her.

But I can't let my selfishness get in the way. If she finds someone that gives her what she wants, I'll bite my tongue. I won't let her go; I don't even think I'm capable. But I'll let her live her life. I'll do that for her, even if it kills me inside.

I don't want to think about that day, but if it should come, I'll still hang on every word that comes out of her mouth. I'll continue to be enchanted by her beauty. I'll make her laugh just to see her smile. I'll cherish the trust and respect we have and hold on to our friendship, no matter what. I'll never stop being amazed by her.

I never know what tomorrow holds, but I do know one thing for sure.

I'll still love her.
