One Hand for Holding, One for Flailing - F4A - Romance - Anxiously Ever After

I tried to write you a letter. I really did. I even used a fountain pen and everything, but it just... I couldn't. My brain wouldn't let me. And now here I am — talking a million miles an hour, making a total fool of myself, trying to say the things that got tangled in my chest. We made up. I know we did. I know we're fine. But I don’t feel fine yet, and I need you to know that I love you too much to just pretend nothing happened. Even if this is awkward. Especially because it’s awkward.

🧑‍🎤 Speaker Teaser

I overthink, I overshare, I over-feel... but I will always be honest with you, even if I have to trip over every word to do it.

🎧 Listener Teaser

You calm me down just by being. And when you hold my hand, even when I'm spiralling... gods, it makes me want to stay here forever.

Trigger Warnings: anxiety, emotional vulnerability, self-deprecation

✧ Just One Question... ✧

If your partner said “We’re fine” but your anxiety whispered “Are we though?” on a loop like a cursed meditation track… do you ask them again or just nod while casually chewing through a pillow?
