truth

“get out of the car!” i playfully scream to him as cars line up behind me.
“okay, okay, i love you, bye” the words race out and he leans in to give me a goodbye kiss. All i can do is smile like the world is finally beautiful. he realizes just what came out of his mouth, and screams “FUCK”, jumping out of the car, and giving the door his frustration in a slam. I show my celebration on my face, and drive away into my future, wearing what feels like a permanent smile. he loves me. i knew from day two it was true, but i never could have known the power of hearing it. he loves me, and i love him. and that is all i need to know.
