You stand there, with such grace. I love just watching you, enjoying every little thing about you. The way your hair moves slightly in the wind, the way your eyes sparkle, the way your lips curve to form a perfect smile, flashing your fangs. I love everything about you.

You amaze me.

Nothing ever seems to dampen your mood. You always smile, brightening the room with your cheerful attitude. If one team member falls, you are always there to pick him back up. I have watched you face challenge after challenge, and you have never disappointed me. You think before you act, and have gotten us out of many tight situations.

You confuse me.

You are so secretive. You talk a lot, but yet you never tell us anything about your past. You are a mystery to me. What do you have to hide? You grew up well, with a loving family, and many friends. Yet you continue to keep things from us. You seem to want to keep it that way. I want to learn more about you. I want to know the real you.

You trust me.

Out of the whole team, you are the only one who tries to talk to me. The only one who sits up on long nights, when sleep doesn't come to me. You seem to understand my loneliness, my desire to be with somebody. When you look at me, I see many emotions in your eyes, but none of them come clear to me. When you try to calm me down, you run your fingers through my hair. I feel you shiver, and wonder if there is more to the gesture than just friendship.

You stun me.

You walk towards me, smiling softly. I see that look in you eyes again, only this time it is more intense. Sliding down next to me on the couch, you place a soft hand on my cheek. I feel my breath catch in my throat. Oh Rei, do you have any idea what being so close to you does to me? Your fingers move up, stroking my hair almost lovingly as you lean over to brush your lips gently against mine. Quickly you stand up and walk away, leaving me speechless. But at least I know one thing now.

You love me.
