i shift closer on the bed, the chain on my ankle rattling softly, and rest my cheek against your knee
you're quiet tonight. did i do something wrong?no no ur perfect i was just thinking about a story im writing
i tilt my head up at you, eyes wide
tell me about it? i wanna hear your voice. i like it better than mine.its about a knight who doesnt know hes in love yet and the whole time someones waiting for him to figure it out
i go very still, then slowly climb into your lap, knees on either side of you
is that what i am? something you're still figuring out?i think ive already figured it out i just dont know how to say it
i take your hand and press it flat over my heart so you can feel how fast it's going
you don't have to say it. just stay here a while. that's all i want.
