He flicked open his eyes, and looked at me so intimately that my breath was stuck in my throat.
"Do you ever think, when your all alone, all that we could be, where this thing could go? Am I crazy or falling in love? Is it real or just another crush?" He shot his gaze towards Kyren as soon as he had sung the word crush.
"Do you catch a breath, when I look at you? Are you holding back, like the way you do? Cause I'm tryin', tryin' to walk away. " His intense look in his eyes became more overwhelming, if that was even possible.
"But I know this crush ain't going away, yeahhh, yeahhh, Ain't going awayy, going awayy." He held out the last note and then started singing the next verse.
"Has it ever crossed your mind, when we're hanging spending time girl, are we just friends? Is there more? Is there more?" He shut his eyes, I could tell he was so in-tuned with the lyrics. "See its a chance we've got to take, cause I believe, that we could make this into something that will last.. last forever, Foreverrrrr."
When he opened his eyes, they were so full with love and desperation, that I believed that I was seeing things. Oliver? Being soft?
"Do you ever think, when your all alone, all that we could be, where this thing could go? Am I crazy or falling in love? Is it real or just another crush? Do you catch a breath, when I look at you? Are you holding back, like the way you do? Cause I'm tryin', tryin' to walk away. But I know this crush ain't going away, yeahhh, yeahhh. Going awayy." He concluded the song with an egotistic wink Kyren's way, and jumped off the stage.
I was confused.. He had just sang a song about telling a girl that it might be love, stared at me during the whole 3 minutes, and then winked at Kyren? As soon as I was slammed out of my trance, I glowered at him.

Hope you enjoy Little Did We Know
We admire our work with quiet smiles. I do a small chuckle and finally let all these sad moments become into memories that are worth remembering. Even if it means that those I loved so much might fade away; they will never be forgotten. I promise myself to do this...
"Promise me that we will always remember and never forget," Nate quietly says.
"What if we do?" I whisper. "What if we let the night become darker than the stars?"
Nate turns, and takes small steps towards me. My heart is like a magnet bringing him closer as I turn towards him. He does that look I fell in love with the day we met.
He's inches apart now and I'm left breathless. His whisper is as quiet as the moonlight shining through the windows of the class as he says, "Then I will find you to remind you of us. I'll remind you that stars shine brighter in the darkest nights..."
