how does one realize that they like their best friend more than a friend?
is it when she goes away for the week and it feels like you're missing a piece of yourself?
or is it when you sit in front of her house for an hour until she gets back just so you can be the first one to hug her and amidst the joy you kiss her
at first she is startled but surprisingly, she doesn't pull away. the moment was over in a flash. both perplexed by what just happened, but not opposed to it in the least.
this was it.
this was the moment I realized that I had fallen for my best friend harder than a tree in a wind storm.
our relationship after that moment flourished
Her and I became even closer than ever.
time passed
I made some mistakes that tested our future as more than just best friends, but she is the most kind and loving person I know and we always prevail.
the first time I use "we".
we did it.
we were officially a package deal
two peas in a pod
nothing could come between us
one night, staring into each other's eyes laying in bed
we knew that we were
in love.
