She walked over, a soft smile on her face.

I smiled back, my heart racing.

"Hey."

Her voice was sweet, soft, and comforting as her eyes reflected it.

"Hi." I smiled at her again.

"I'm Katrina."

She reached out her hand.

"Colby."

I took it.

She smiled brightly and let my hand go, sighing.

"You know Sam, right?"

My heart began racing again, a million thoughts on my mind.

"Y-yes."

She nodded and sighed again, running her fingers through her hair.

"Do you.. like Sam? As in more than a friend?"

My palms began sweating slightly, fingers shaking.

I wiped my palms on my jeans, nodding slowly.

She smiled and patted my shoulder.

"Well, Colby.."

I looked into her Hazel eyes.

"If you do ever get him to be yours or.. whatever."

She let out a forced chuckle.

"Hold onto him.. he's a real keeper. Take things slow, don't rush him.. Learned that the hard way."

She nodded at her own words as tears pricked her eyes.

She began walking away before I spoke up.

"Katrina.."

She turned to me with a hum.

I smiled softly at her and pulled her into a gentle hug.

"If you ever need anyone to talk to.."

She hugged back slowly, but tightly, resting her head on my chest.

"I will always be here for you."
