Compititive Love

We walked thru those trees with that familiar crunching sound under our feet. A lot had changed from the last time we had walked that path. And yet there was no saying how good it felt to walk in that tranquil moment holding the hand of that one person who might just mean your whole life to you.

Lots had changed indeed from back then. Her curly hair was not so curly any more and her eyes had turned from jet black to brown. How?? Well beats me... all I remember is waking up from a dream only to land back into another dream... a dream much more beautiful and exciting than the last one. But the one thing that had not changed was her tricky line of questioning :)

"Tell me" she said, "How would you prove that you love me more than I love you?" Well, I had been bragging bout how much more I loved her... but this was ridiculous. There is NO WAY anyone can even prove that they love you. U just gotta feel it. But again... I was "I" and she was "SHE", so I told her what every prince in a fairy tale would have told his princess. I said

"Darln, I love you so much that I would give up my life for you any day ANY time" and was expecting an "Awwww so sweet" in reply. Instead I got blamed for just proving how wrong I was about how much I loved her!!

"Alright then," I snapped back. "YOU tell me how YOU would prove that you love ME more". I stood there challenging her like it was a no-brainer. She had already lost. But when she gives me THAT smile... I just know I put my foot in a place from where I was going to get slaughtered.

"Ill let you die first" she said cheekily.

"Now that is a nice thing to say" I quipped. "How is letting ME die first better that me dying FOR you?"

"Well, for one... I know know you love me"

"So... are you saying that you'll let me die first coz u KNOW I love you?"

"No... All Im saying is that I know you love me a lot and that your life will be miserable without me. I also know that MY life will be miserable without YOU. But I can't stand the thought of letting you go through the pain of all that loneliness. I want to love you for ALL your life. And I think I atleast love you as much to be able to wish that the pain of all that loneliness comes to me? Besides... every day I cherish our love after you are gone, I will just be proving that I love you more. How?? Well, you wont be around to love me back now wud u?"

Now THAT was a no-brainer!!
