"If I beat my record will you be my girlfriend?" He looked up at me with his green eyes. I doubt he was going to beat his record. He's liked me for a while now so what the heck. No harm no foul. I smiled,"Sure Ryan. Good luck."
His smiled widened," See you after the race."

She needs to be with someone who will notice how she laughs. How confident she is. How she talks. The way her smile is different from the rest and the way her eyes glow when you talk about the stars.
