It's my prom night in just a couple of hours. I'm about to dance with my friends and have a blast on the last night I get to spend with my whole grade. My family at school. And though I'm excited about this, I'm excited about something else too. Though I told myself that I don't like you anymore, I still can't wait to see you.

No. No, no, no, I didn't mean that. I'm so over you. I don't want a relationship with you. But I do want a platonic friendship with you. Yes, that's exactly what I want.

Actually, no, I don't. Because I don't care. I just want a friendship with you. Because I like you as a person. So why would I want you to notice me in that way? Silly me...
