So he said it - those three little words. I was overjoyed, to say the least - and relieved! I was apprehensive about being the first to say it because I was afraid that it was too soon... that he didn't reciprocate... that I'd scare him away. I was wrong; I should've known better. Everything he says and does says otherwise. I can see it in his eyes and I can feel it in his touch; it's all around me.

This is new to me. I've been in love before, certainly, but it's never been this... pure? There's a sweetness about it that I haven't experienced in the past. It's soothing, not overwhelming; exhilarating, not exhausting; amicable, not turbulent. There's no anger or hostility, bitterness or resentment - there's only mutual understanding and affection. This is what I'd imagined it could be - should be - but wasn't.

It's never been this easy to love someone - this natural. My love for him just flows out of me. There's tremendous freedom in that. I needn't check my emotions or fear them because there's no shame in it. I feel like I'm walking on air...
