Do you remember? August 10, the day you came back to me. The day you talked to me just like you did three months ago. With that look in your eyes and your beautiful half-smile. It was a dark and cold night, everyone was freezing and looking for warmth. Your girlfriend has your sweater and your arm wrapped around her. You are cold and uncomfortable but you prefer to let her be warm and cozy. Dived in my own problems and difficult situations me and my friends created. When I noticed your eyes, sparkling in the dark, a dazzling stare towards me, only me. Those are the eyes that I remember, the eyes that anchored in mine and made me stupidly happy. After some months without you, I almost forgot how this felt. And that's how I found out that you will never leave. 

About an hour later you stall right next to me, maybe cause she is far away. I'm alone, the crowd divides me and my friends so it's easy for you to intercept me. I feel you staring directly to me, but I won't respond "I must resist" I think. Till you start touching my arm, that's something I cannot ignore. Some friends of yours join us, this is weird but I feel safe, maybe cause you are here, and I missed you. You touch my face and hair and I love it, but then I remember that you have a girlfriend and that she is like 5 feet away, I must respect her. You can't keep doing this, leaving and then coming back. Someone could get hurt really bad and the odds say I will be the one.
