-You like Star Wars?-

I am reading the Star Wars comic in the library

the one kept right behind my favorite seat

instead of doing my algebra homework

(Maybe you would know that is my favorite seat if you ever actually cared)

You are looking at me skeptically 

God forbid we have something in common

I stare at you over the top of the book and chuckle

-Yeah-

I'm tired of people assuming I can't be interested in more than one thing

You ask me which episode is my favorite

I can tell by your tone it is a test

-Episode Two-

Your hands flay to your face and you sigh dramatically

-Are you fucking kidding me?-

-Yes-

Your face turns from anger to a small grin

You are impressed even if you never admit it

-R2D2 or C3PO?-

It all spiraled from there

Whether it went up or down is a matter of opinion

All I know is that on that day

I saw something  in your cold eyes

A glimmer of something completely foreign to you

Friendship.

Was that intended at all?
