Did You Know?

You told him you needed space. He didn’t take it personally. Just replied, “Let me know when you want someone to sit with you in it.”

You said, “I’ve had hookups that made me feel emptier.” He said, “Then I’ll fill the silence first, not your inbox.”

He didn’t ask you to be sexy. He asked you to be still — just for a moment — and let him see you without performance.

He didn’t post about you. Didn’t make a playlist. Didn’t grand gesture anything. He just texted “Home safe?” And you realized that meant more than all the rest combined.

He asked if you liked slow mornings. You told him yes. He replied, “Then I hope you wake up next to someone who doesn’t rush out of your arms.”
