What if we were together?

I sit in the corner and ask myself, what on earth did i like in you at the first place. You made no attempts to please me nor you did anything unusual to catch my attention. Yet I decide, i am not going to stop myself from falling for you. Why is it so hard to stop myself from loving you? Is it always necessary to have reasons to love somebody? Can't you not simply fall in love? Is it needed to always get something very unusual done? Maybe i am just a low maintenance chick when it comes to you! May be for a change i would like to do all that the others ever tried to do in order to impress me. Why don't you ever scream out loud along with me and say "Yes i do?" Is it so difficult? Why don't you ever speak out? Why not for a change you act like me and i pause and watch like you do. Why cant we exchange our roles just for a change?
Just tell me once, "Yes I Do"
I also wonder what if you say say "Yes i do?" I am a planner. My thoughts don't simply stop at you saying me "Yes I do" or you making efforts to please and propose me. I can't think of  it even in my remote dreams. I know you won't. 
So let me skip this part and think post these proposal time. I have never being happy knowing that they live happily ever after. I was always curious to know what happens later? Yes they are in love but what happens next?
Does it continue? or it simply fades off. Does the excitement of the first night remains forever or a day arrives when someday the prince is no more interested in lighting up the candles and decorating the room, or buying her favorite flavored condoms!
Well, at least the prince had confessed his undying love for her. In our case, you have never even reciprocated my love. 
So the scenario after the days of our union would be as dull as, umm let me think of a scenario.
I sit facing the minutely carved dressing table, brushing my curls. You are on the bed acting as if you are deeply into the  newspaper. I wonder why reading about the disasters and the sensational news gives you more pleasure than wrapping your hands around your newly wedded, over excited, love me love me begging wife?
You finally look at me. "How do i look?" I finally ask. I believe in expressing. I believe in leading a regret-less life. I don't wish to die with too much unsaid and unexpressed. 
You reply almost looking away from me. "Pretty" "How long will you take to get ready? It's just a small drive till the grocery stores." You walk away without bothering to hear me answer.
I hurry brushing my hair and randomly tying them in a bun! A last stoke of blush on my cheeks. Well yeah it sounds like a little drive till the groceries to you but, to me it's that awesome time in which i would walk with you, spend that little time selecting the things we need. It's that little time i would get to know you and your choices better.
You hardly talk about yourself. Maybe when you pick few things yourself, i could crack my mind and get to know about your likes and dislikes! 
We reach the stores and as expected, you start picking up things.. Oh so strawberry is your favorite flavor. I grin at myself. Oh no! It's your friend. I think he has seen you and now, he is waving at us. I hold your hand and take a turn. The family of four naughty kids and two fat women make it easier to walk off without your friend noticing us. This was needed. I can not share this little time of us with anybody else.
On the way back home, you start talking about cakes and pastries. The look on your face while you talk about your favorite things is priceless. Keeping your attention on the road you talk to me. The moments you turn to look at me makes me blush.
Music? i question. "Umm ok" in a couple of minutes we are listening to our common favourites. 
On the way, we happen to pass by a restaurant. The college couples walk hand in hand. "Why such a show off? immature kids!" you say. My eyes still fixed on them and trying to imagine us like that, i turn towards you and nod. After a while i say," It was not childish."
"What?"
"They are in love.. Expressing it is not childish. I think its a brave act." Saying so i smile wickedly, knowing that i have challenged you. 
The wicked smile is contagious you smile, making no eye contact.. "There is time. It will come naturally. Don't worry."
The words keep playing in my mind over and over again! 
A buzz in my cellphone and yes it's your text flashing my screen. " Can we meet? I have something very important to talk to you."
What if all that is going to come true? Am i going to spend my lifetime waiting to get loved? Is it all worth it? Should i give it a try? 
I quickly type. "Yup" 
Let this meeting decide....
