the story of you

Last Practice of Passion

Closing ceremony, the person I was infatuated with called me out as the winning detective as a "future lawyer".. that made my heart jump. After getting on stage, receiving my certificate and greeting my friends, that was the last Model United Nations conference I was to ever step foot in, so I was pretty emotional, not gonna lie. You came back to my place after though, when I really needed you, and I couldn't help but let the tears out by then. I know it sounds lame, crying about MUN, but you understood. Amidst my teary reminiscing of MUN highlights, I looked into your eyes and I realized; I loved you. You listened to me, not just listened, but attentively, picking up every detail. You asked me questions to further understand and you understood how much law and Model UN mean to me. You even asked your friend to send you that video of the closing ceremony where I was called out to the stage as a "future lawyer" just so you can send it to me, and once you did, i'll never forget this; you gazed deeply into my eyes, smiled, and ran your fingers down my cheek. That was the deepest show of intimacy, pride and appreciation I've ever experienced. You left later that day, leaving my to hang out with our friends, and even they told me I looked extra happy that day.

The day after MUN we all hung out with our friends during break, and you said something I'll forever cherish. You announced to every one how amazing I was during the conference, but you genuinely meant it. Coming to think of it now, you may have emphasized that point because you knew how much it meant to me after I'd confessed to you how much it does the day prior, and I made my way right next to you to give you a little hug of appreciation, you explained you weren't just saying this to receive a thank you and a hug from me, and that you genuinely mean it.

You guessed it, that second infatuation was much less severe than the first, and I got over it within a few days, and it was back to focus on you. I'd realized I only had feelings for them because I was reliving how deep i'd fallen back them, before I even liked you, but the feelings were gone and done with them, but you, you were something else. That was the weekend I realized I was in love, after 3 months of liking you.
