The moonlight seemed brighter than ever as it shined above them two of you in the empty lot. Your limbs were entangled with each others, fitting like a seemingly perfect puzzle that Johnny had been searching for his whole life. Your head was against his shoulder, and it never felt more like home.
Home was always a funny concept to him. He never felt at home anywhere, nor had he felt welcomed anywhere. Until you, the angel you are, showed up and changed his world for the better. Home was a feeling that surrounded him like a warm hug every time you, his partner, was around.
And yet, he struggled to show just how much he loved you. Even though you guys were in the later stage of a relationship, he still had yet to vocalize the sheer loyalty he felt for you.
His lips lightly pressed against the crown of your head, trying to build up the courage to tell you what he needs to.
โYโknow,โ
Johnny started, his voice sounding much more quiet than he anticipated.
โI really do love you.โ
Please, God, say you love him, too. Johnny needed nothing more than to hear those words leave your mouth.
