❝in this city of robot hearts, ours were made to beat❞

i nearly made the biggest mistake ever.

it wasn't till i was about to approach mark that i remebered.

he said

i broke his arm.

mark never let alex forget that he was the reason that his left elbow could now dislocate itself at any given time, because he broke it.

i was so stupid.

but when i went up to alex, and kissed him i just knew.

i knew it was him.

and i knew that even if i could choose, i would want it to be alex.

we fit together like a jigsaw puzzle, our personalities that are different but just seem so right together.

the way that i was there for him when he found out that his grandfather had cancer, the way that as soon as he found out about my dad he came rushing over to have a star trek marathon with me.

the way he says my name softly, as if he is afraid that it will . . . break if he says it too loud.

and i feel so blind not to have noticed.

and i think i love him.

it just took me a while to realise.

and i'm going to send a letter back, and i'm going to ask him a question that could change things between us.

hopefully for the best.
