My Enemy, My Mate

I could tell he was nervous as we made our way back towards my home. I wanted to reassure him that everything was fine. I just wanted to show him some of my childhood. I wanted to be authentic with him and wanted him to know more about me. I felt that if I opened up to him in this manner, he would feel more at ease about us. 


I also knew this happy sprint could not last forever. I knew we still had to reject each other. But, before we did this, I wanted him to see who I was. I wanted him to love who I was. I wanted him to know that I am not afraid of what lay ahead. I just wanted to feel authentic with him.
