What started off as a simple word play on how "Audi" and "outie" sound the same, I replied with "I'm an innie!" and he said "I've seen".
Although this should have been overlooked and boved along without another glance, it made me think...
"I've seen that you have an 'innie' belly button. I've seen the curves and contours of your body. Ive seen how stunning you are in a dress and how adorable you are in sweats. Ive seen every inch of you, kissed every part of you, and seen each and every scar. I know how your bangs fall and how you act embarrassed about small things. I know how you curl up into me when we watch a scary movie and how you sprawl out on me when we make out..."
He knows so much about me, and so much more, Things that I overlook. Things I don't think he sees or remembers.
Sometimes, its good to be reminded that the one you love takes such close notice to even mark down the defining direction of your belly button.
