Picture This

This is how I imagined the way I will tell you how I feel about you:

The sky is dark and the moon is surrounded with stars. A soft halo of clouds forms around the moon making it even more majestic. I stand in front of you with my green dress on, and you're leaning against your car. We are standing outside the house, talking and teasing each other like we always do. I would be tickling you again, trying to annoy you and making you laugh so hard which will make me smile. You lean back againt the car, and you look up at the sky above. I'd stand beside you and do the same. We'd stare at the moon for a couple of minutes and then I'll say that I have to tell you something. You'd look at me with that feigned innocence but I look back at you with sadness in my eyes.

The wind blows at my direction as I look up again at the moon, whispering a silent prayer.

You ask again what is it that I want to tell you and I start my story by saying that I met someone. He's special and I've known him for some time now. You don't know him that well but I do. I understand what he's been through and I went through the same. He makes me laugh and I know that he cares for me so much. You'll be stunned but you stay quiet. You'll look up and start asking me question like "why, how, who" is that person. And then I'll say I have to let someone go because the other guy is the one I choose to be with. By that moment, you'll look sad but you'll try to hide it. We won't talk for a while and you'll break the silence by saying how lucky that other guy is.

I'll hold your hand but you let go of mine. You'd walk about and still be quiet. I'll just watch you for a while and wonder what you're thinking then. You'd stand beside me and try to tell me something but you know already it's a little too late for that. You'd say that you have to go and that it's getting late.

Somehow you didn't notice the smirk on my face. You didn't see that while I was watching you, I was actually smiling. By this time, I couldn't keep it anymore. I'd walk over to you and hug you tight and whisper to you what you should really be hearing:

"oh xxxx, where do you think you're going huh? hush now.. you know I LOVE YOU."

And after that, I dont know what you'll do next.
