More than lovers, more than friends

I feel like writing something but I'm not sure how I'd start. Should I talk about my weekend? No. It's not what I want to write about. It's about how my Monday started perfectly right when I saw the apple of my eye.

Morning came, time to to work and I was unknowingly and unintentionally 15 minutes late. My fault. Yeah, yeah.. I get it. As soon as I took my first step on the stairwell, I thought of this very special person. Could he be absent? I hope not. What could he be wearing? I don't know. Should I look at him when I open the door? That's inevitable. I finally reached the door and I still haven't decided what I'd project the moment I enter the door. I just took a deep breath because I don't know if I'm ready to see him but I know I'm not ready to be ignored.

As soon as I opened the door, I stole a glance at him and there he was. Sitting in front of his computer. I wish he'd greet me a good morning, that would be nice but verbally he didn't. I wish he caught a glimpse of me before I sat down. Oh well.. I was so eager to turn on my net book and log in to my email because I can't wait to say good morning to him. The moment I finished typing it in, I pressed enter. I was mentally crossing my fingers for a response from him and in a few seconds, I got what I wished for.

A simple good morning started our conversation and it went very well. I cannot quite explain the happiness that I feel whenever I get connected with this special someone. I am a very emotional person, but over the years I've learned how to keep them to myself and I've learned how to be in control of it too. Honestly, I've mastered my emotions. Most of the time, when I'm with someone I like, I don't let them show how affected I am whenever they're around but this one, he's different. I get mad at him when he doesn't say hi or hello and I'm instantly happy whenever he does. That simple, but it isn't entirely easy for me because I shouldn't be acting like this. I have officially broken one of my rules, it sucks and yet I'm happy. We are friends, a bit more than that. Not lovers either because we are still more than that. No relationship status or label can ever define my connection with this person and I don't believe we need such thing as well.

Bond. That's what we call this thing that we have, we share a strong bond and every time our eyes meet, there's this imaginary electricity connecting us. I must say, what an amazing chemistry we have. Speaking of chemistry, I can compare our special friendship to a Covalent Bond. A covalent bond is when two atoms share electrons because they both need what the other atom has which makes them stick together. And yeah, we're both like that. We both support each other from one another but more often than not, we are just drawn to each other. No words needed and I'm loving it. What we have does not deserve any kind of brand or description because it's just too freakin awesome for that.

You can say we're more than friends but less than lovers. I say? Meh. Lovers? That's just too shallow and superficial to sum us up. Friends? That doesn't cut it either. I couldn't come up with the right words to define what we have because for all I know, it's beyond words and for everything I could be messing up or building up with it? I only got three words. Definitely worth it.
