"I had no 'plan' to be honest... It was just something bullshit... I mean, there was no guarantee that you were going to do what I was hoping from you anyway..." she said, "And then you... shocked me! You said you loved me, and... and... I could feel that love!"

"You've no idea how you make me feel..." she said, "You make me smile, you make me laugh. You care for me so much! You understand me unlike anyone... You can just see through me... I can be mad at you, and still it doesn't change anything... You still love me the same way!"

"This is something very different... You need to understand that I have never felt anything like this before... Even when I used to be mad at Dad or let's say Angela... I used to be scared that if I didn't apologize soon enough, they'd stop talking to me... And you! You just keep loving me with all my flaws, and it didn't make any sense to me..."

I never dreamed she'd ever say all things to me!

"How could I not fall for you? How could I not love you?" She said as her voice started to tremble, "You're the best thing that has ever happened to me, even if it's by chance! I'm sorry for even thinking about hurting you... I won't ever hurt you... I love you so much... I just don't know how to prove it..."

"You don't need to prove anything to me," I smiled.

She didn't need to. This was more than I had ever imagined, and... She had suffered enough. I was not going to create any more issues because of any fucking reason!

"Can I ask you something?" She said, "How could you even fall for me? I don't think I've ever given you any reason..."

"Do you know when I fell for you? It's very stupid actually..." I smiled, "We were thirteen... You had a fight with Jasper on something... You were so mad at him! Then I caught you staring at his painting he was working on for a month when I came to your home... You had this bowl full of colors in your hand... You wanted to throw it at that painting... I thought you were going to do it and that was going to make Jasper crazy! You kept staring at the painting... It's like you were debating with yourself... And then, you kept that bowl aside, groaned loudly and left the room..." I chuckled, "I found that very sweet!"

"I could always see that sweet and caring girl in you... Even when you seemed angry or bitchy, if I just paid a little attention, I always found that girl in you... That sweet girl who couldn't hurt anyone, she was always there..."

"You're crazy!" She shook her head.

"Crazy for you, yes!" I smiled.
