Heyyy, you. Not just satisfied with looking anymore, right? You may have thought I couldn't feel or see you looking at me like I was the only thing you ever wanted to look at again, but I did. I was feeling the same way as you, once you let me see your heart like that, but there wasn't a way to tell you.

...Until now.
