my favorite part of a relationship is the part where we’re just getting to know each other. the part where i wake up in the morning, and my first instinct is to text or call you to say ‘good morning’. the part where i’m just sitting in class, and suddenly the thought of you strikes my mind out of nowhere, causing me to smile. the part where we talk for hours long on the phone, asking each other questions, telling each other countless stories, and falling asleep together. from the cute nicknames to the constant flirting, i can’t help but feel a spark lighting up. these fresh feelings are what i cherish the most because they’re what keeps me hopeful for the future.
