What posessed me to say that.
Was completely unknown.
To me.

It was far from being true.
Cause god knows.
What she really meant to me.

"Never?"
She asked.
With a hint of shock in her voice.

My brain was speaking.
Before my heart even got.
The chance.

"Never ever ever
Will I like you like that."
I said like a fact.

Goodness someone stop me please.

She grabbed a fistful.
Of clothes.
And strided back out.

Head held high.

"Well. The thought of
Dating you
Is just scary."

Scary?

That was a blow.
I couldn't be that bad.
To go out with...

Could I?

"I'm not that
Bad."
I said.

"Oh but
You are."
She said back.

I had trouble figuring out.
If she was teasing.
Or not.

What the hell did I just do?
I just blew it.
Completely.

Telling her straight out.
That I didn't.
Like her.

What was I thinking?

She paused at the bathroom door.
Turning to give me a wink.
Before gliding in.

My brain scrambled.
To come up with a way.
To bounce back.

To tell her the truth.
Without making myself.
Look stupid.

To convince her otherwise.
