Late Night Thoughts

12:22 A.M.

You turned to me

You looked at me

I took a deep breath

"She misses being buddies and wanted to be again like the old days"

I said that looking straight ahead of me

Not looking at you

I couldn't look at you

You instantly smiled

Oh, how I miss those smiles

"Oh really?"

"Yep." I put emphasis on the p.

"That was like, in the 7th grade!"

I looked at you this time

You had the biggest smile on your face

You were shuffling some papers around

"Yeah..." I looked down at the ground.

The bell rang.

You opened your mouth to say something

You immediately closed it

I held my breath

6 months

I finally heard you voice talking to me.
