Dearest Miss Jock,

At the ice cream parlor today, you ordered a small scoop of vanilla.

I wondered why you didn't get a chocolate sundae. I knew it was your favorite, I've seen you come here for years.

I hated chocolate.

I ordered it in the hopes of you talking to me.

I know that we run in different social circles.

I know that your group of friends is nonexistent.

I know that you don't get the best grades.

And I know that you're the best football player that I've ever seen.

I just don't know if you love me back.
