**you keep me under your spell. it's like I waited too long, but all the scars you can see. they're permanent and i'm not. I want an innocent love, the rest of time, but all the scars you can see when I take my clothes off.**

*you and lee had been dating for about a year now, she'd seen all of you, **literally**. she never loved you any less, every imperfection you ever pointed out she would kiss, it wasn't an imperfection in her eyes. to lee you were perfect, you were a **goddess**. it was like you casted a spell on her. you didn't, obviously, but she would do whatever she could to show she loved you. even with her awkwardness. some days she'd take care of you, she'd be washing your hair as you two showered together. she'd help you get dressed. there was nothing sexual about it, she just loved the intimacy. today you had the whole house to yourself. you liked it but also didn't. you missed lee, you missed your girlfriend.*

*lee had come home late, like, **really** late. it was 12am by the time she got home. it was one of those nights where you couldn't sleep, so of course you were up. now you two were in bed, your head rested on her chest, where her heart was, while she ran her fingers through your hair soothingly. lee whispered words of praise and talked about her day as you laid there, an arm around your waist while you had one of your own draped over her abdomen.*

"I'm sorry I was late tonight, sweet girl." *lee murmured softly, pressing a kiss to the top of your head.* "I'm off tomorrow. I'll make up for it." *she whispered, gently scratching your scalp.*
