i said i’d make it

concept #2: holding ur hand on the ski lift, getting off to ski for the first time and hearing u shout at me as i (obliviously) take off on the advanced route

concept #3: sitting in my hotel room, awake and sad at 2:30 am, hearing a faint ring from the old landline and picking it up to hear your voice say “hello? i love you”

concept #4: driving down the freeway in your truck and talking about our memories together as though we’re two different people

concept #5: anticipating the way you grab my hand in your sleep at night, silently falling more in love each time.

concept #6: laying on the top of the hill during golden hour, taking polaroids of each other till we run out of film, and waiting for the sun to set as i rest my head on your chest, the stars soon coming upon our gaze.

concept #7: sweet complaints escaping your lips, ricocheting against my skin and into the open window, giving me chills that reside in my spine

concept #8: painting the walls, teasing you with the paint and becoming careless with my brush

concept #9: you

concept #10: talking with you on the bathroom floor, finding myself warm and squeezing you as we fall asleep together.

concept #11: teasing you about how you said you’d never date me but here we are, in the same bed, hand in hand with a future ahead of us.

concept #12: when you wrap your arms around me while i’m getting ready

concept #13: resting my head on your chest mid-winter, doing nothing but focusing on your heartbeat and sharing the warmth.

concept #14: sitting on the balcony in the afternoon sun, drinking iced tea from mason jars and laughing when one of us chokes on an ice cube.

concept #15: running inside to escape the rain, drying off with old beach towels and watching netflix inside a blanket fort.

concept #16: when you smile at me like t h a t and i think, “oh fuck, i’m so in love with you.”
