Dear you,

Okay, I know this is probably a shock to hear but I like you- yes you. Trust me no one's more surprised then me.

I guess you're wondering when and how it all started, to be honest there wasn't one defining moment when I realized that I liked you it just kind of happened.

The class we shared slowly became my favorite class out of the day because of you. To be honest it's kind of weird to think about because I've known you forever but we never really talked until this year, of course that's when my dumb self started to become friends with you- started to develop feelings for you the very year you were moving to South America of all places.

It was slow at first, my heart would race when you walked into the room or if we had to work together because our mutual friend wasn't there that day to form a group all together. It was how you pulled on my heart strings every time you smiled at me or made me laugh.

We were halfway through the year and I had somehow managed to push away the thought of you moving to the back of my head. I was focused on trying to not so subtly flirt with you or tell one of my friends that I had feelings for you.

Then came her, she was everything I didn't want to happen- she was everything I wasn't. All of our friends wanted you guys together because you were perfect for each other and I played along. I cheered happily on the outside as you guys walked side by side in the hall my heart shattering on the inside. When we were all together I'd smile then act like I was busy after all you were happy weren't you? I'd like the pictures and comment about how cute you guys were together pushing away any feelings after all you had a girlfriend.

Months past and finally the last day came, you were about to leave and I remember you being extra nice that day. Lunch came and we were all saying goodbye to each other. You were standing towards the middle of the room saying goodbye to everyone and I walked over there. You were surrounded by all of your friends as I hugged the last person in the group besides you, I remember glancing your way as you smiled at some joke someone said before I walked away without saying goodbye to you.

I liked you. I liked you a lot but you won't get to know that, and I'm never going to see you again.

-Yours Truly
