& for months,
i spent that extra hour getting ready in the morning.
picking out the cutest outfit, perfecting my every last hair, carefully painting on my face with makeup.
all for him.
then, one day, i was done with that.
so, i woke up, threw my hair in a messy bun, put some sweats on and left.
as i was walking in to school, he approached me.
"you look beautiful today." , he said.
i didn't believe him; i couldn't believe this was happening. i was so confused. he must have noticed it, because he kept talking.
"all the girls around here, they live to impress guys. but you, you don't. you're different. you're yourself. and you're beautiful just the way you are. gorgeous, really. i
hope you don't mind, but... i love you."
