Its killing me, baby, he says, his voice much more calm and quiet. Its killing me because I dont want you to go another day without knowing how I feel about you. And Im not ready to tell you Im in love with you, because Im not. Not yet. But whatever this is Im feelingits so much more than just like. Its so much more. And for the past few weeks Ive been trying to figure it out. Ive been trying to figure out why there isnt some other word to describe it. I want to tell you exactly how I feel but there isnt a single goddamned word in the entire dictionary that can describe this point between liking you and loving you, but I need that word. I need it because I need you to hear me say it.
