your hand, your heat, your love.
sometimes it happens unexpectantly. a surprise text, a firm embrace, a caught glance across the room…it only takes a brief second, and i’ve fallen in love with you all over again. my insides turn topsy-turvy, my lips part with that sudden intake of breath, my hands instinctively reach for yours so i can feel your heat […]
intertwined

i watch him as he speaks – his hands moving awkwardly as he tries to find the words to say. his eyes shine and my heart’s pulse quickens at the realization they shine for me. i know he’s probably nervous. i look for the overt signs of anxiousness but see none. his breath comes easy […]

The town […]

Read part 3 here The fall semester of my junior year brought a lot of change – the severing of my relationship with ex-boyfriend, & the tender beginnings of my relationship with Russ.
