When the Halloween accessories appear, I know my favorite season has officially arrived. Autumn isn’t just my name; it’s my entire personality 365 days out of the year.
“Guess it’s an F-bomb day?” I ask with a brow lifted. “Every day is.”
It takes all of my strength not to smile, because I know from this single encounter she will be the end of me.
“That’s probably my boyfriend checking on me.” “Fuck him. Right now, you’re my entertainment, Autumn.”
It shouldn’t feel like this. It shouldn’t feel like home. It shouldn’t feel like I want to do this again and again and again. But it does.
Overpowering emotions streamed between us, and I swear she cast a spell on me.
“Falling in love with me wouldn’t be the worst thing to happen to you, would it?” “No. Losing you would,”
“I don’t like anyone looking at you like that.” I turn to him. “Jealous?” “Mm. No. I know who you belong to.”
“I’d dance with you in Hell,”
“And what if all I want is you?” I finally say. He pulls away, meeting my eyes. “You have me.”
I stand on my tiptoes to capture his lips, needing him like a fire needs air
“You’re too good to me.” “No. You’ve just never been treated the way you deserve. This is the bare minimum, Pumpkin.”
“But you’ll say yes and it will be the greatest thing that’s ever happened to you. You’re his queen, the only woman who can sit beside him, not only as his wife, but as his equal. You’ve been waiting for confirmation that he’s the man in your dreams. He is and always has been. Twin flames. Mirrored souls.”
“When you’re in too deep, it’s impossible to break out of it until you have an awakening,”
Kiss each other good night every single night. Tomorrow isn’t promised. Never go to bed angry. I don’t care what happened. Laugh until your stomach hurts. It’s healthy for the soul. Say I love you as much as you can. One day, you might not be able to. Take a ridiculous number of pictures together. It’s the only way to turn back time. Be each other’s best friend. Because together, you can conquer anything. Share secrets and communicate. And never repeat what’s said. Forgive easily. Sometimes, it’s the only way to move forward. Love one another without barriers. Because then it’s limitless.
