He will have certain darkness in his eyes with a slight twinkle when he will look at you that will remind you of your love for the night sky and will want to make you explore the darkness you always feared.

His every word will make your cheeks burn and his touch will make you feel electric to your very core.

His whiskey tinted breath will make you forget why you hated the half empty bottle in your father's hand in the first place and his smile will make you ignore all the warnings your mother gave.

You will not understand why they told you to stay away when his warmth made you feel more at home than any another place that you've ever visited and why they frowned upon his every word when the crude flavor of them made you feel nothing but a bit more rebellious, a bit more courageous, a bit more dangerous and a bit more of every thing you always wanted to be.

You won't be able to see his faults right in front of you or the red reflected in his eyes.

You won't be able to see the wrong in his words or the hurt in his touch because from your perspective you will be saving him but darling, you'll fail to see the sparks that he will be turning into infernos to destroy all that you love so he'll be the only one melting his skin into his until you forget who you were in the first place, turning you into what he always wanted.
