Me and my best friend Lana were at lunch in school. It was a normal day. I've grown a recent crush on this short hair, brunette, girl. Her name is Ava. It's been a small crush. What I mean is that she's really cute and all I'll do is look. I don't have an classes or interactions with her. Just seeing her walk the campus and crossing paths. When I make eye contact with her, my heart stops. I feel so attracted to her; I wonder what she thinks about me. This has been going on for a month now and I still haven't told anyone.

"Dez!" I was pulled out of my thoughts from Lana.
"Yeah, sorry, what's up?"
"Well I'm trying to tell you about the girl I met today."
I smiled and replied, "tell me."

When she started talking her words started to become unclear. The moment she mentioned the name Ava and looked her way. Pulling myself together I told her,"she sounds great." But the world felt frozen. I don't know why I didn't tell her before that I had my eyes on her. Ava seemed like that fun mysterious girl. It felt like I was in a movie. I was happy for Lana, I am happy for her. Am I jealous? A little. But who wouldn't be?
