I used to think Love is when a man is jealous, Love is when a man brings you to his friends, Love is when he goes along with whatever you want to eat, Love is when he priorities you above all his social events, Love is spending every waking moment together.
But only with Gabriel, did I find the newest, clearest definition of Love.
Love is when you enjoy making your partner happy.
I'm always humph-ing Gabriel because he likes to say things to annoy me and then save his ass after. So on a day like any other, I was slumping in his bed while he worked on his juices. I was getting pissy because I felt neglected and he came to me.
I pulled the blankets above my head and ignored him, but he refused to take that and dragged me out of it. He grabbed three stuffed animals - my graduation bear for him, a stuffed dragon he won for me at a carnival, and a bunny plushie I brought in Japan.
He used the graduation bear to talk to the dragon as he discussed our relationship:
D: Hello!
GB: Hello!
D: Do you know who is that on the bed?
GB: I don't know! Who is she?
D: She is the girl who wanted to watch a movie at Starbucks
GB: No way! She just wanted to sleep with the guy controlling us
D: I know! But he already pcc'ed before she came so that he could innocently hug her!
GB: But she wanted the D! And she got the D
D: Do you want the D too?
GB: Oh no!
And he made the plushies hump.
D: Do you know the girl on the bed is an editor?
GB: Wow! So smart!
(GB turns to me)
GB: Do you want a diploma? (this bear has a diploma stitched to his hand)
Me: Yes I want!
GB: Too bad! You don't have! UniSIM diploma not real one!
(Gabriel laughs manically as I smack him)
D: Here I will give you my diploma instead. It is here in my hands, invisible, just like your diploma from UniSIM hahah!
Introducing the bunny:
(Gabriel attempts a high-pitched voice)
B: Hi guys!
D: Hi!
B: The girl on the bed was telling us her diploma is real! We are not listening to anyone without a diploma!
(Gabriel covers the dragon's ears)
He was having a hard time transitiing from voice to voice for the male and female toys and I didn't notice it till he said, "Oh shit the voices all fucked up already," and his realization made me laugh all the more.
(He spreads my bunny's legs)
B: Hump me!!!
D: Okay!!!
The whole time throughout this skit, I was in stitches and smacking him and he kept going and going, each time making me laugh harder than before. He only stopped because I flicked the dragon off for humping my bunny and he couldn't find it.
In that moment, I knew with searing clarity that this is Love.
Love is in the way Gabriel loves making me laugh, Love is the way he never gets jealous because he knows he loves me most, Love is the way he bases all his decisions on me because I'm the woman he wants to marry, and Love is the way he makes me happy.
I'm a very lucky girl indeed.
