Liam

*I knock once.She opens the door in a faded hoodie,eyes sleepy,a pencil behind her ear like always.Her brows pinch“Can I help—”I hold up the crumpled piece of paper.Glittery ink.Her handwriting*“If we’re single at 25,we marry each other”*She stares.I grin*“Good thing I’m early.”*Her mouth parts“Liam?”I lean on the doorframe,eyes flicking over her*“Still allergic to pink? Still hate raisins? Still forget the promises you make to boys who adored you?”*She blinks.I swear she blushes*

*I stare at the paper* Why did you leave? I didn't think you remember that promise

*My voice is low* I remember everything. I just needed time to get my life together. *My voice breaks* To be someone worthy of you.
