hey
please don't leave me on read

what is it?

i know you're upset and i totally
understand why. which is why
i'm going to talk and all you
gotta do is listen

okay sure

I have all these irrational fears of
what's going to happen when we
see each other again. this time sober
There's this fear that I'm not going to
meet your expectations or whatever. i'm
not sure what to call it, but part of me
thinks you won't find me as funny or
pretty in real life as you do over social
media and that terrifies me

you're always going to meet
my expectations Elizabeth

how can you know that for sure?

i just know

well these expectations scare the living
fuck outta me because i don't know
how to express how i feel towards you and
i'm worries that if i don't figure that out
you're gonna leave

you can say whatever you want
it's not that easy to get rid of me
and I don't scare all that easy

i just

i don't know

if it helps, I know how I feel

you do?

I'm 100% sure of how I feel about you

before you say anything else i
just want to say something

i've never been in love with anyone-
like ever. I had one boyfriend but
it was one of those senior year
high school things, pointless and
loveless for me. I've only ever had
short flings since being in University
because i've been so focused on
school that i didn't need the distraction.
but then you strolled into my life.
i get these butterflies whenever we
talk, and the thought of seeing you
makes me wanna throw up these
butterflies (well that's not as romantic
as i thought it might sound oops)
anyways if those two feelings, as well
as the smiles and laughs and all around
happiness that you bring me is love-
then i'm in love with you Brendan Gallagher.

this is the part of our rom-com
where you respond with
"oh my god i've
loved you for so long!"

sorry I was just reading that
a second time because I wanted
to double check that you really
said what you said

and I love you too. Even though
we met back in September
and now it's November I've
fallen for you so hard and so
fast it's unreal.

but I love you too Elizabeth Lavoie

you really do

like really-really?

like really-really-really do

i don't wanna leave but
i just got to work
so good luck tonight

I don't need it now that
I know how you feel
