Do you ever get the feeling in the pit of your stomach when you look at some really attractive boy who has this shit eating grin on his face and think,
"How naive?"
Lately, I've been thinking that a lot along with the occasional "stop" and "why's". Shaking my head with my own grin playing on my lips I look up at him and look at him in the eyes. As his grin falters and he stares at me with a surprised face-probably from me looking him straight in the eyes- my grin only widens before I say,
"It is quite extraordinary when you think about it, yes? The way one can fall so deeply and how your heart can beat faster with only a glance?"
Saying this with a hint off British accent rather than my american one I wonder if he believes it but soon after, his grin returns as he nods his head with a mischievous glint in his eyes before i add,
"Well, it is quite an extraordinary thing, when you believe."
