i am human and i need to be loved

[just_savannah]

(Continued from here)

She loves me, I couldn't help but think. I was so amazed by the words I think I forgot to speak and now have been stairing at her with my mouth wide open in a not so pleasant look. And there was the thought again. Oh my god, she loves me!I could feel the emotions stir up inside of me and I wanted to just hold her forever.

Comments

And there's the sappy grin again. It's funny...I can go from crying to completely elated in like a matter of moments.

"Well, good, then the feeling's mutual." I smiled happily, kissing her softly. "It feels pretty amazing. Just knowing that there's someone who chose to of their own free will that loves you." I added softly. "Especially given the amount of time I've spent with so many people not even wanting to talk to me..."

[just_savannah]

"Well, we can forget about those people that think we're weird or freaks. We're more of ourselves then they'll ever be and that's a gift." I said softly, kissing her.

"I feel so close to you," I commented softly. "Like I really did know you before. Like I knew you before I talked to you. Like I even loved you before then." I whispered the last part quietly, hoping she wouldn't freak out in any sort of way.

[_rockprincess]

"I totally agree with you, about all of it." I replied, returning the kiss. "It's weird, to feel like we knew each other before we even talked, but if we both do, there's probably some reason for it, right?"

As long as we both felt it, I knew I wasn't insane. Not like anyone else will understand, but it doesn't matter.

I played gently with her hair, watching how it shined briefly. "Probably just means this was meant to be," I smiled wide towards her.

[_rockprincess]

"So basically we were fated to meet?" I asked with a smile. "Wonder if it was supposed to be later? I mean, we're just about finished the ninth grade." I laughed softly, enjoying the feeling of her playing with my hair.

[just_savannah]

I laughed softly at that. "Maybe," I agreed with a wide smile. Yeah, we were in the ninth grade, but it didn't mean that these feelings weren't real. I curled her hair in between my fingers gently.

"But it happened now..."

[_rockprincess]

"Wasn't complaining, Sav, really." I told her quickly. "Prefectly content to let it happen now as long as it keeps happening. I'm like, ridiculously happy right now, and I don't want that feeling to go away." I told her, smiling as she continued playing with my hair.

"You really are completely enthralled with my hair, aren't you?" I commented with a laugh.

[just_savannah]

"Like I said... pretty hair that I had the direct instinct to hold," I replied with a grin.

"And this feeling going away? Would be this complete disaster... but I don't see that happening." I smiled softly towards her, reassuring her.

[_rockprincess]

"Fair enough." I smiled, giggling at her comments about my hair. Such a completely simple accent, but it meant so much. Probably more than she could possibly imagine.

"Also, very glad you don't think anything's going to change. Comforting." I smiled to her. "As is you playing with my hair. But sadly, as much as I'm enjoying this, I should probably make dinner soon..." I commented reluctantly. I had absolutely no motivation to move from my spot.

[just_savannah]

I sighed softly. Darn, that meant stop touching the pretty shiny hair.

"Need help?" I offered, putting on another smile as I gently let go of her soft locks of hair. "Or am I going to have to steal back my cookies and entertain myself by watching you?"

[_rockprincess]

"You can help...not that spaghetti's exactly complicated to prepare." I smiled, kissing her softly for a moment. "Maybe you can stir the sauce or something while I make garlic bread? Keep it from getting burnt?" I asked, forcing myself to sit up and smooth out my hair a little.

[just_savannah]

"I shall be a sauce stirrer." I smiled against her lips happily. "No one really likes a burnt sauce."

I helped her, briefly, comb out her hair with my fingers and did the same for myself.

[_rockprincess]

"Well, that and I burnt dinner yesterday 'cause Mike came home and distracted me. Aiming for non-burnt food substances tonight." I smirked, pulling Savannah up off the bed with me as I got up.

"You know, I didn't invite you over here to make you cook dinner..." I commented, "but I guess you probably don't get to help with dinner all that often with Maria do you?"

[just_savannah]

I grinned towards Casey. "I like cooking," I paused... "I like cooking what I can cook. Like attempting to make cookies without setting a kitchen on fire."

I laughed softly, "I'm not a really good cook. Not a future profession."

[_rockprincess]

"Well, how are you supposed to learn if you only stick tot he things you already know how to make?" I questioned, as we headed into the kitchen. Seemed like a logical question to me.

"And somehow? Can't see either of us having a profession in cooking, but we still have to eat." I pointed out with a smile as I started getting pots out for the noodles and sauce. If I timed everything right, supper should be ready about the second Mike walked through the door.

[just_savannah]

"Well, it's not that I don't try." I countered with a smile, "But there is a reason why Maria cooks and I don't." I laughed softly at that. It's not that I've actually set anything on fire, but I've come pretty close.

"Eating is good. So is eating healthy," I admitted. Maria's idea of fattening me up wasn't the best if I was going to pursue my dancing. Strong muscles are fine, but fat not so much. It's not as if I was a tiny twig though.
