Heavy breathing, sweaty palms, and awkward positions.. that's what that moment consisted of. We weren't quite sure how to act since we didn't really love each other. No.. it wasn't sex.. it was just a hangout in my backyard. No one was around just him and I laying on the dead grass.
The wind was blowing my loose, brown hair all over.
It was two hours in and we hadn't said a word to each other. Maybe he was mad... or maybe we wanted me to speak first.
I began to spoke when I heard him say, "I love you." in a soft voice.
Wait.. he just said he loves me? Oh.
That was all I said. "Oh"
I never liked to throw the phrase, "I love you." around so much because in my mind that's a powerful phrase.
I hesitated but I responded with "I like you". Yes, I did say that I LIKE him. Not love, love is to powerful, and this is just going to fast.
It got awkward but we still lay there holding hands and cuddling.
I'm sorry. I know I should have said that I love him but I can't.. not yet.
Maybe next time?
