"I love you...I love you so much..."

My hand comes up to brush silky hair from the face I'm cupping between both of my hands. Tears are steaming down my face and my heart is aching as if someone were ripping it out of my chest. I feel the face of the man stretch into a soft, gentle smile, but he says nothing.

"How do you feel about me?" I asked in return, and my heart pleaded with him to answer with the same words.

But still, he says nothing, and I wait in painful silence.

KNOCK KNOCK

Once again, a knock rips me from my semi-pleasant dream. I sit up sleepily before I open my eyes, rubbing the crust and sleep from them as I adjust to the harshly bright morning light.

I really need to buy some curtains...

I throw the covers off of me and prepare to get out of my Queen bed. It had been successfully delivered the other day and I had been looking forward to sleeping in...but whoever the hell was at my door thought otherwise!

When I check my cellphone for the time (it's 11 A.M), I realize Yuji had been blowing it up for the past 20 minutes. He kept asking if I'd heard the "news," but of course I hadn't checked anything since I came home at noon after filming and crashed for nearly 12 hours!

The last text he had sent was a "heads up" that he was coming over for a minute. The loud person at the door was him!

Of course.

Rolling my eyes, I make sure that I've slept in my PJs to avoid what happened last time. I make it to the front door, cursing about how annoying he was. When I swing it open, I glance at his beaming face once before I lean against the door frame.

😑"Do you ever sleep?"

😁"Sleep is for the weak!" Yuji steps casually into my apartment, the smile never leaving his face. And I thought the sunshine was bright! This guy was literally GLOWING! He looked completely unreal -- just like a cartoon!
