The first time I saw Emily I was at on campus, which also happened to be the one Beth attended as well. Although I had met Beth first but I technically got rejected my her, we were still friends though, well kinda. I just stopped talking to her, not because I was upset, but because I just felt weird since I did try and kiss her, plus I needed to get over my little crush I had on her.
But once I saw Emily, my mind was just flooded with well...Emily. I was just a huge sucker, sometimes I really hated myself for it, it's embarrassing. During class I just couldn't stop looking at her, which confused me. I don't think she's been in my class before that, or maybe she had, I just didn't notice her yet which seemed crazy to me. How could I not notice her, she was so beautiful, especially with the light flooding into the room.
It was like it was on her and no one else, making everyone look dull compared to how she looked right then and there. I think she felt the soft stare I had on her, fiddling with my pen as I listened to music, although the song was a total blur, I wasn't even paying any attention to that. How could I? It seem like a shame not to pay attention to her and just go on about my day like nothing happened. This was something, I was just so sure of it. But I was sure of a lot of things that didn't work out well...
Then, she looked back at me, she actually looked back, her hands in her lap. It was very subtle, no smile, or confused face, just a gentle blank expression. Her eyes coming up to meet mine, although for me it felt like forever just looking at each other, it was just a second. Her head turned and went back to look up at the front, listening to the professor go on with his lecture, scribbling on the big white board. The sound of the marker squeaking on the smooth surface made some students cringe.
Though the sound would've made me shift in my seat uncomfortably, I paid no attention to it. My mind just couldn't get over what had happened. I don't want to tell any lies but I thought 'Man, I'd really like to fuck this girl.' I know, I shouldn't be thinking like that but everyone sort of did, plus I wasn't just thinking about her only in that sense, but also in the sense that she would be more than just those stupid college hook ups.
When class was over, I thought that would be the last time I saw Emily that day. I was looking forward to seeing her again tomorrow but it wasn't expecting her to be the one to come up to me first, was always full of surprises. I was lucky enough to actually catch her attention back in class, she saw me, and was interested, I don't know why, but she was just like that, I guess she saw something in me that she liked.
