'"You know," He said, looking back at the stars above his head. "I'm a guy." He heard a chuckle coming from his right. He looked over at her. She was angelic
"Really?" She asked sarcastically, a grin plastered across her face. And, Oh Lord. She was beautiful. "I had no idea." He rolled his eyes before looking back at the sky. It was a truly beautiful night. He was with Sophie. It couldn't have been more perfect.
"I mean," he said, hiding the smile that had appeared on his lips. "I'm a guy and I don't think a lot." He expected her to say something, a sarcastic comment maybe, but she didn't, she was really listening this time. He cleared his throat, suddenly sore. "I must think 'bout, let's say a hundred things every day. Half of them are usually 'bout football." He chuckled and looked at her again. She was staring at the sky no longer smiling. He was getting nervous, which you could clearly see by the way his accent was even more pronounced. He was scared to say anything more, but he couldn't seem to be able to keep his eyes off her. "But lately," he paused again, thinking hard on his next words. With a deep breath, he continued. "99 of my thoughts have been 'bout you."
