>>end of second period<<

I walk out of class and head to my locker, and drop off my books.

right before I close the door I catch a glance of Chris...

And of course he's leaning against the wall chatting with two ditzy girls.

They all look like lovesick puppies. See I knew it was just a matter of time.

Chris sees me and walks in my direction.

"Hey there Charlie!" He says enthusiastically.

"They're flirting with you, ya know." Is all I say.

"Yes I realize that, but Charlotte...

*chris looks deeply into my eyes*

... I have my eyes on a much bigger prize."

{Free period}

~laying on school lawn~

"Who are you?" I ask.

"Uhhh Chris..." he says confused.

I laugh lightly, "No, who are you, ya know, as a whole?"

"I don't know. I haven't entirely figured it out yet."

"There's no need to... we aren't whole. At least not yet."

We lay there silently, gazing at the clouds. peacefully enjoying the quiet, serene company. We point at shapes in the clouds...

"I see a flower!" I say.

"I see something I've never seen before..."

I sit up and look at him "what is it?"

"you."

"Is that a bad thing?"

"Since when is seeing someone so amazed at life, who quietly observes the rest of humanity while she figures out her story a bad thing? It's an incredible thing."

"What am I, chris? A wallflower?"

"No Charlotte, you are something much more beautiful. You're what I would call, an observer of humanity. I love it."

*Bell rings*

"I want to have a change Chris! I want to be bold, and daring! I wanna take a risk!" I tell him.

*chris stays silent*

"what is it?"

"I know we just met but, I say go for it. J-j-j-just don't be anything other than you."
