character development
confused by all these guys
asking to see me then not answering
my messages telling them yes
I'll text "meet me at 7"
he'll come sweep me off my feet
(literally)
when we go out to get dinner
he'll encourage me to actually eat
but then he won't respond for hours
the others send signals just as mixed
winking at me when they’re with their friends
smiling as I walk by them
initiating conversations
(then falling silent)
grab my waist, pull me in for a kiss
generate distance between us
watch my face, make out like you’re reading what’s written on it
leave me stranded in the same spot you made me a promise
call me beautiful in another language, teach me words in your mother tongue
talk shit about me with your friends
after touching me and saying you could never get enough
