I fall for a boy...

"I will fall for a boy who will:

*stand out in the rain with me.

*cook with, or for me.

*let me sing along to the radio. 

*keep surprising me. 

*watch movies with me on lazy days. 

*remember the little things. 

*help me face my fears. 

*start play-fights with me -

with water, or food, or pillows or anything. 

*write me post-it love letters. 

*always say what's on his mind.

*let me wear his clothes. 

*shut me up with kisses. 

*call me things like darling, not babe. 

*hug me and say, "no, you're not." when I say i'm fine. 

*treat me, sometimes like a child. 

*treat me, sometimes, as an adult.

*love me back."

from To Have and To Hold. 

I have fallen for you because

you dance in the rain with me. 

you eat everything that I cook. 

you hear me sing, maybe shriek.  

you read with me on Saturday brunch.

you come to my rescue when I am at the mercy of a cockroach.

you kiss my tears when I cry for the silliest thing. 

you always speak your mind to me. 

you think i am sexy when I wear your clothes. 

you kiss me when I talk too much. 

you call me baby. 

you talk to me like I am your best friend. 

you watch me sleep. 

you love me.
