"How are we going to do this?" I asked, "I want us to make this work... But as soon as something comes up from the past, it makes my heart so heavy... Full of regrets, full of pain... I don't know if we'd be able to make this work... It will kill me if we can't after talking through everything..."
He took my hand in his and he brought it to his lips to place a soft kiss there.
"I promise... I won't screw up this time..." he said as he looked into my eyes, "I promise. I know I've fucked up more than you or I'd ever be able to put it in words, and I'm so grateful that you're even considering giving me another chance... But I promise I won't break your trust ever again... I swear..."
We were at this stupid party... This room was full of hundreds of people... Full of noise..
But it felt like he was the only one standing in front of me.
As if he was the only person in the whole world...
As if he was the only one who mattered...
Because indeed he was the only one who mattered to me!
I wrapped my arms around neck and pulled him closer...
Maybe this was a stupid decision...
Maybe it was too soon...
I might regret this later...
But I didn't want to do anything else at this moment...
I brushed my lips against his and kissed him... as passionately as I could.
