(S)He's My Best Friend

"Hey Rich?"

"Wassuh babygirl"

"Do you ever think you're gonna fall in love?"

" Who says I'm not falling already?"

I glance over at Rich lying down on the freshly cut grass. He looks at me with this...this look I've never seen in his eyes before. I give him a small smile and lay my head back on his chest. I respond to his answer.

" Well I've heard that love can be tough. But I don't get why you fall into something that can cause you so much pain but at the same time bring you so much joy and happiness"

" me neither babygirl.....me neither"

Love.....hmm. I still wonder what it feels like.
