Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
I've rejected affection for years and years
"Come now, Just one hug from me? I'm your boyfriend and all." Childe frowns when you answer 'no.' and keeps writing things in a certain notebook. He still kept trying though. However, you always rejected.
Still, everyday he'll shower you with gifts and never ending compliments. Even when you tell him to go away, he kept insisting.
Now I have it, and damn it. It's kind of weird.
"Pleaseee??" He begs. "Not even a kiss?"
".. Fine." You swore you've never seen someone jump up in excitement and lunged towards you, pressing soft kisses all over your face. Your face was red and kept yelling at him to stop, even though you haven't noticed you were enjoying his affection.
He tells me I'm pretty, don't know how to respond.
"You're so beautiful, you know that?" He said while looking up to the stars. Tonight was a meteor shower and both of you went outside to glance up at the sky. His smile never disappeared from his face, you thought it was adorable.
I tell him that he's pretty too, can I say that? Don't have a clue.
"You are too." You mindlessly muttered out. Yet he still heard your words. Your eyes automatically looked at him, and he was smiling at you. "You mean that?" He asks. You nod in response, watching his smile grow bigger and before you knew it he hugs you, tighter than before. This time, you weren't pushing him away.
Part 2
Every so often I glance at the sky an catch a small ray of hope .. still that's as good as it gets 🙃 nothing is real anymore .. it's nearly been that long it'd hard to imagine I once lived such a life of pure bliss
My father always told me that crying is just a manipulation tactic, so I have to cry alone, which is hard to do as his 24/7 caregiver.
I just wanna get away from it all, ya know?
