"Wait!" Someone gently grabs my hand, "You dropped this." I turn around, and my eyes widen when I see the most gorgeous boy ever. He carefully places something in my hand, and I gasp. It was my shiny golden bracelet! "Oh my god, t-thank you...so much! I would've been devastated if I'd lost this. I'm so glad I found you- no- you found me- I mean the bracelet!" He laughs, and his smile goes all the way up to his beautiful, blue eyes. I quickly look down, feeling my face turn red in embarrassment. "you're welcome," he says. "um, do you think we could maybe-" just then, the subway doors start closing, and I shout, "sorry, gotta go!" He reaches out towards the door, but then stops himself, and just watches the train pull away. I see his beautiful blond hair sway slightly in the fast-moving air, and I can't help but wonder if I'll ever see him again.
