in your life, there's bound to be someone that you'll fall in love so much that, even when they've chose to walk away from your life, you'll always be a teeny weeny bit in love with them. for me, it is this boy who i've never expected to find myself liking, least of all, loving. but i did. i still remember when and how.

it was on the 7th of february. i told him i wanted to see the sunrise, and he said, 'okay i'll bring you'. so he did. he came to my house at 5am, and we walked from tampines to pasir ris park, sitting on the breakwater. it was cold, the harsh wind blowing, but he wrapped me in his arms and i was warm. we had not had our first kiss yet, and i was nervous and jittery, because i knew right there and then that this would be where we'd have our first kiss. and i was right. i looked up at you and you looked down at me and i drew closer to you and you did too and i pressed my lips onto yours and it was a perfect first kiss. pricks of pleasure and happiness prickled on my skin and we both grinned at each other, and you hugged me tight to you and i realized you were perspiring like crazy. you whispered into my ear, 'i love you so, i'm so lucky to have you.' and you continued hugging me, not letting go. and that was when i fell in love with you. and i still am. falling in love with you, with every single passing day.
