The Boy I Hate to Love

Sometimes the person you've been hoping to notice you is the one who's been noticing you all along.

***************
It started with a crush.

A quiet one.
The kind you hide in your chest because you know you'll never be enough for someone like him.

Then it became an obsession.
The kind that makes you watch from a distance... memorize his smiles... collect pieces of him he never meant to give.

And somewhere in between... it turned into pain.

Because he was that boy-
the one every girl wanted,
the one you weren't supposed to fall for,
the one who was never meant to notice you.

But he did.
He chose the girl who was never supposed to be an option.
For a moment, it felt like a dream...

Until everything fell apart
