The Almost Goodbye - F4A - Romance - Leaving Was Easier Before You Smiled

I told myself I could sneak out. That I’d wriggle free of your arms, find my clothes, and vanish into the morning like a ninja in your t-shirt. But then you made that sleepy little sigh and everything... fell apart. Literally. I fell out of bed. And then I fell for you again, even harder than last night. I want awkward, I need awkward, because awkward means there’s still distance. But you just keep smiling. And I’m still here. Wearing your shirt. Cooking breakfast. Maybe in love. Definitely terrified.

🧑‍🎤 Speaker Teaser

I don’t know how to do this. I talk too much and feel too much and now I’ve said too much. But I’d still rather cook you burnt toast than walk away.

🎧 Listener Teaser

You are impossible. With your stupid calm eyes and sleepy smile and arms that don’t let go. You’re not helping. But also... don’t stop. Please don’t stop.
