This was supposed to be good. Moving here. Being able to be with Josh for the first time in years. It was supposed to make everything better. Instead I just keep fucking everything up.


I'm sorry I suck at this whole being together in real life thing. I guess I always thought that by the time we could be together I'd have managed to get this shit heap of a power under control, you know? I thought I'd actually be able to touch you, and not being able to is so much harder than I realized it would be. Having to be so damned careful all the time, to think about every movement so I don't hurt you. Knowing it's not just distance keeping us from touching anymore, it's me.

I want to touch you so damned bad it's almost frightening sometimes. I want to know what your skin feels like and what you taste like and sometimes it's hard to believe it's ever going to happen. And I swear to god I won't stop trying, but...even if it never does happen? There's nothing I want more than to be with you, and I guess I've done a crap job of letting you know that.

I love you. More than anything. More than I ever thought I could love someone. Which I know is really fucking sappy, but you've got to be used to that from me by now, right? Swear to god, Josh, I would rather be with you and never be able to touch you than be with anyone else and get a free pass from my powers with them and I am really fucking scared I've ruined everything.

It was just us for so long. Just you and me, with no one else involved other than Evan or Julian in the background and in passing. And I always knew you had a life, and friends, that you didn't cease to exist when we closed the connection. But knowing it and actually seeing it are so entirely different there's no comparison.

Seeing you with Julian people. How often you touch, and how easily. How you lean into touch and gravitate to skin and I don't think you even realize it, b/c it's just as natural and necessary as breathing. And don't, please don't, get me wrong. I don't resent it. I don't expect you not to do it or want you to stop I just...I wasn't ready for it. And jesus, it's honestly kind of beautiful. I like seeing you touch people, seeing how they respond to you, even if I'm jealous as hell sometimes. It's just hard to see that and not to think that you need it from me too, and I can't give it to you. Or to think about how much effort it must take not to be that way with me, not to touch, when it's so natural and automatic with everyone else.

I don't want you to bend, or break, or change at all. Not for me or because of me. I got scared and I fucked up. Please let me try and fix it.
