Cute hahhah
What stage of love was it when another person became a habit? How quickly had the mere background hum of another person’s life become such an essential fixture of the house that its absence felt like a robbery?
He’d bend his body backward around the entire world if it made Park smile. He just didn’t know how.
My lovely boy
“In fact, you’re very good at it. So much so that sometimes it’s all I can think about. The way your scent changes when you want to fuck. The way you look at me across a room like I belong to you, like you know all you have to do is crook your finger and I’ll come running over, begging for it. The satisfied little grunts that turn to whimpers when you just start to lose control. The way you taste right before you come down my throat.”
Scuse me sir. Im in public.
He felt wonderfully warm and wonderfully solid. Basically, just the ordinary qualities of any living person, so it was a mystery why holding him felt so goddamn extraordinary.
What a softiee
“You know, it’s never too late to call off this engagement. You’re a catch, you’ll find someone.” Park sighed. “I was cursed by an old witch to find him charming.”
Samee Park sameeeee
“That’s the third hug of the day, you know,” he said, curiosity burning in his expression. “My diary entry tonight is going to be rife with exclamation marks and hearts.”
Such a cutiepie
“Thinking about what?” “Oh, nothing new. Just how I’m going to love the ever-living fuck out of you for as long as you let me,” Cooper said.
Cooper had the sudden sensation of being on the edge of another exhilarating fall. You’ll have this forever, he thought suddenly. This moment. This memory. No matter what happened in the future, no one could take away the fact that imperfect Cooper Dayton had found his own perfect love. He’d never felt more stupidly lucky in his whole life.
They both sat still for a moment, adjusting to the sweep of raw emotion that came from cohabiting, briefly, partially, a single body.
“Cooper, there isn’t a room in the world I would be embarrassed to walk into with you by my side. Not even if you were wearing a sunflower on your head.”
Staaahpppp
“I can’t imagine any amount of time with you that’ll feel like enough. You say too many interesting things.”
“Dreams change. People change. Please just don’t stop giving me the chance to change with you.”
Coopeeeeerrrr the man you are
“You are my favorite part of living,” Cooper whispered. “I’d do anything for you.” It was a confession more than anything else. Not necessarily something he thought was right or took pride in, but dug from the deepest and most private part of his mind, unsightly and true. “I’m yours,” Park murmured simply. And for the first time, Cooper didn’t see it as having a power and dominance over him that he’d never wanted, but as a rare and fragile responsibility that Park had gifted Cooper in love.
Welp Im crying help
“I like to win.” He kissed Park again. Then murmured against his lips, “Your love is the most important thing I’ve ever won.”
“This bit. Any bit. Every bit,” he said. “I’m always happy to be an us with you.” Cooper smiled and pressed a sweet kiss to Park’s lips. “In that case, it shouldn’t be too hard to always be happy.”
“So today I promise, I vow that I know you love me, too. I never doubt it. How could I when I feel it all the time? I feel it when you make me laugh and then watch with that pleased little look on your face. I feel it when you touch me like I’m special and when you can’t touch me anymore because you’re over-full of sensations, but let me stay by you anyway. I feel so safe in loving you, because I know you love me, too. And it’s the greatest gift of my life.”
IM A PUDDLE
