Hearing you say that you loved me, it filled me with this incredible happiness that even now hasn't gone away. I was sad of course that you, ultimately, still rejected me, but just knowing that you felt the same way about me made all the difference.
Who cares if you rejected me right now?
You already liked me, so that was half the battle already won. Now I just needed to figure out how to change your mind…
"You know," I started, "I think… Wait. Do you hear that?"
"Hear what?"
I sat up and turned my head back and forth. I could definitely hear something, but I wasn't sure what it was. "Hold my clothes," I said and started to strip.
"What is it?"
"I can hear something, but I'm not sure what. I can fly us down to check," I explained as I started to take off my pants.
