Valentine's Day.

I hate the holiday.

What's in buying you a gift to prove I love you?

You say you didn't mind when I told you I wouldn't.

You laughed it off like a pro.

But that doesn't mean I didn't see the hurt in your eyes.

The possible words that maybe I didn't love you.

So here's my present to you.

A Touch. A kiss. And the 3 words we both longed to hear.

I love you.

And you whispered your love back.

I tasted the chocolate on your lips.

Was it the ones Red sent you?

And again when you kissed me back.

Your lips fit into mine like a jigsaw puzzle.

Your body even better.

Did I ever tell you that you're beautiful?

Of course not. But I want you to know.

You're an idiot.

You annoy me.

I hate it when you bother me.

But I hate it when you go.

You're kissing me hard now, our hands finding their niche.

Places I only thought of in my fleeting dreams.

I thought I was under control.

But that was before I knew I wanted you so badly.

As a teen, you can't trust hormones.

But does that classify for young adults?

Some would call it lust.

Some would call it wrong love.

But you and I know that we just want that feeling-

Of being one person.

"I love you…" You whisper between kisses.

Love.

Love.

Love.

I've only just found new meaning to that word.

I always wondered.

How could I both hate and love you?

But I suppose now I understand.

My hate was my love.

My kiss is my seal.

And your whisper is a promise.

A promise to our future.

What's in Valentine's day-

When I can love you whenever I want?

I'll kiss to that.
