“you have freckles on your ears,” i said.

“i’m so glad i know that vital information now,” you replied.

“but you could have gone through your whole life not knowing. you can’t see your own ears.”

“i could have looked in a mirror. or taken a picture.”

“but would you have? would you even have wondered?”

“probably not.”

“but now you know. now you know a little bit more about yourself.”

“well.. thank you.”

and that’s when we kissed.
