161. Never Thought
It had been wistful thinking at first; she didn't think it could ever happen,
he could ever fall in love with her, except he had
and they had an eternity after
to enjoy
She didn't think someone like him would ever look twice at someone like her
but he had; he'd seen something special in her
like he had in him.
She didn't think he could be anything less than the perfect figure he seemed
but he was, of course, but she found herself
loving him all the more for it
And it had seemed like such a strange yet natural couple
at the beginning: the sister of his best friend
but it had nothing to do with that in the end
or her own silly crush.
He'd loved her because he'd loved her,
regardless of her love for him back
and she did love him back;
She'd just never thought he loved her too.
