different kinds of love to write about
fiery love
this kind of love is filled with bantering, snarky remarks, and a handful of eye rolls. it makes you question numerous times how these two people — who can't seem to stand each other — can stay together. all questions go out the window, though, when you notice their almost obnoxious laughter at an inside joke, or the silent looks they share whenever someone else makes a comment. if one of them ends up hurt, you better be prepared for the other to start a war for them.
for characters who feel this love, it truly is the two of them against the world, and they're confident in their ability to tackle it.
familiar love
this love is saved for those who have not known a life without one another. for as long as people can remember, these two have been side by side, growing and learning together. this love is filled with shared sweaters and personalized playlists. they may have even had other partners before realizing they were simply searching for each other. in hindsight, it was obvious — everyone seemed to have seen it except for the two themselves. after they get together, it's clear they were made for each other.
for characters who feel this love, it may have taken them some time to figure it out, but it was more than worth it in the end.
secret love
this love can be represented by tiptoeing. these two are not supposed to see each other, and they're both aware; why, then, is it so hard to stay away? it's as if they're two magnets, unable to pull away. love can make people do dangerous things, and these two are willing to risk it all if it means being together. this love is filled with lingering touches, quiet smiles, and haste kisses. although it may hurt to keep their relationship a secret, they would rather have hushed moments with each other than nothing at all.
for characters who feel this love, they don't care their romance makes their lives more complicated than it needs to be — their love is powerful enough to give them the strength they need.
