It was another tiresome evening after work. I was back at home and wasn't in a mood to do anything at all. After a long shower, I decided to have a hot cup of coffee. And I was thinking about him. What if he is here right now. He would probably make a good coffee and make some french toast too. I met him at one of the lowest point of my life and he made me feel special. In return he didn't expect anything. Same like you do.

I knew that I was walking on a fragile line but also I knew that you'd be always there. It wasn't the time to think what's really wrong or right, so I just called him.

"Hello Mister"

He sounded rude as always.

"Why?"

"Can you come over today please? I am unable to arrange some of the furniture. I would appreciate a helping hand"

"I have work till late. I'll try to come"

Though the conversation was short, I knew that he would come. He cared for me like he has never cared for anyone before. He never talked about his past. I never asked either. Like he made me feel loved when I needed it the most, I think he loved that I cared for him too. But he never wanted to make things more complicated. It is probably because he has been through a lot too.

He came about an hour later. Without uttering a word, he went to the kitchen and started arranging dinner. He always does that.

I was looking at how he works and said,

"I love you"

He stopped what he was doing for a second and said,

"Are you going mad? I am not the kind of a person you should love. And you are already being loved by someone better"

I wasn't ready to quit so I said,

"I can love whoever I want. I love him and I love you too"

"You are trying to make things more complicated. I won't come again if so"

Showing an angry face I left the kitchen. After a little while he came with dinner and sat beside me. He started feeding me without any question and I was hugging him.

Then I said,

"Please stay today"

I knew he wanted to but he refused.

"No way. I have some urgent work"

"Please. I even said to him that you are coming today"

"What? You are a mad woman. What are you trying to do?"

"Nothing. I just said to him that you are coming today. And he was alright"

"Listen to me, this is not something simple. Peoples' feelings are at stake here. Though he said he is okay that's probably he cares about you more than you believe"

"I know him more than you do. You don't have to think about it. I was just asking you to stay cause I am afraid"

With the look on his face, I knew that I won the argument. I was running my fingers through his hair and kissing his face slowly. Without a word he pushed me away and went to have a shower.

I went to my room.

My heartbeat was raising and I was thinking to myself,

"What am I doing after all? Could you be really alright with me after all these? I was so sure that you would. Cause I haven't loved anyone more either"

My thoughts disappeared as he walked back in to the room. Refreshed and his smell was something I was already addicted. Without wasting a second my lips started to search every inch his body.

I could loosely remember that "Love Me Like You Do by Ellie Goulding" was playing on the background.

"Fading in, fading out,

On the edge of paradise

Every inch of your skin is a holy grail I've gotta find

Only you can set my heart on fire, on fire

Yeah, I'll let you set the pace

'Cause I'm not thinking straight

My head spinning around, I can't see clear no more

What are you waiting for?

Love me like you do, lo-lo-love me like you do"
