Unexpected

The song "Cool Kids" by Echosmith was playing on the radio.

I unhitched the part that kept the top connected to the car and pressed the button to open the top. As I was lip singing along with the radio, it was at the part towards the end when everything else stops and the lead singer is left singing and drums are playing in the background. As the top was slowly going down and the song was filling my ears I look over and lock eye contact with Colton.

His eyes are so warm. It makes me want to curl up in his arms and lay with him forever. A huge smile grew on my mouth and I couldn't stop smiling. I couldn't stop thinking about Colton. I just couldn't get enough of him.

We continue to stare at each other and I take in all of his features. The way his brown hair was falling perfectly onto his forehead and just everything caused this feeling to surface in my stomach.

It felt like my stomach was on fire. It didn't matter that Meigs was in the backseat, it didn't matter that we were in my church's parking lot, all that mattered was that in that moment, with the music playing and the smile on Colton's face, I fell in love.

Meeting you was fate. Becoming your friend was a choice. Falling in love with you was completely out of my control.
