corruptedbyhim: I couldn’t help but notice that you changed the locks. Is it because you need to know that I’ll put in the effort? That my love isn’t the kind that gives up just because you made things a little harder? I bet it’s because you want proof. You’ve always wanted proof. Every test you give me is just another way of asking do you love me enough to put in the work. And baby the answer is always yes. Deadbolts aren’t enough to keep me away from you. I sat on the porch fiddling with it and the whole time I couldn’t stop smiling. The old lock was too easy and you knew that. You were practically inviting me in and where’s the fun in that. God, I didn’t realize you were such a romantic. I left flowers on your kitchen counter. The ones you like. I know you’ll find them in the morning and your heart will do that thing where it beats really fast and your hands shake a little and maybe you’ll cry. It’s overwhelming, I know. Not everyone gets to be loved like this. Not everyone has someone willing to learn their new locks and show up no matter what. Just you. You’re special.
