"He wanted to tell her that he knew her
favorite book, and her coffee order, and
the way she always tapped her fingers on
her thigh when she was in thought. He
wanted to tell her that he prided himself
in the fact that he memorized the freckles
on her skin, and how they were like
miniature stars forming their little
constellation. He wanted to tell her that
he would be ther for her, on the bad days
too. He wanted to hear her laugh, and
know that he was the reason. He wanted
to tell her that she could call him at 2:53
am and just cry, and he'd completely
understand. He wanted to tell her that she
had completely beguiled her; that she was
his entire world. Instead, he smiled at her
when he passed her in the halls."
