The One

 I kiss him and it's like everything I've ever wanted is finally mine. I'm so in love with him and it's the scariest thing that's ever happened to me. I don't know what life without his skin on mine would feel like.  He feels like home. He is safe, steady, secure, mine. I think he is the one. -Laine Waters

I'm In Love Again

 I'm in love again. I'm in love with the way he kisses and the way he falls asleep. I'm in love with his goofy side and the way he'll put his hand over my face when he wants me to stop talking. I'm in love with the way he hugs me tight and cuddles with an arm over my waist. I'm in love with the jokes he makes and the memes he sends me to keep me laughing. I'm in love with the way he wants to protect me from anything dark. I'm in love with his passion and his dedication to the things and people that he loves. I'm in love with his voice, the songs he sings, the way he says my name. I think of nothing but him. I breathe his name and he holds my heart. I'm in love, even though I never thought I could be in love again. -Laine Waters

Delusion

 Things are not progressing as well as I had hoped. Coming off of this summer, I thought that everything would snap in to place easily.

Down Bad

 I’m down so bad for him.  -Laine Waters

Chapter

 When the story's chapter ended, that didn't mean the story was done altogether. She cried because he gave up but knew her tears were temporary. -Laine Waters

Every Single Night

 I wonder if there was someone that watched us every single night. I imagine that they would describe it like this: He would walk her all the way back to her front door every single night. Sometimes it was at 10 pm, sometimes it was well after midnight. They would have some kind of banter going, or they would be bickering, or she would be laughing at something he said. They would talk for a few moments, and he would abruptly end the conversation, and say goodnight to her. He always gave her these bear hugs. He would squeeze her so hard that she squealed, and then let her go. She would scan her fob, he would open the door, and then they would dap each other up. Every night, they would walk their separate ways without looking back. She would go into the building, and he would walk away.  One night, they were outside talking for a long while. As they got closer, you could hear her protesting that she could walk herself to her own building and that it wasn't his responsibility to ...

Ten Months

 From The Vault: It’s been ten months.  It’s been ten months since he flipped my world upside down and yet, I still can’t forget about him.  So what did I do? I booked plane tickets.  Eight more days,  Haven’t seen him since May,  And I sit and I’m hopeful  For that singular day.  -Laine Waters
