A Ship In the Distance

I choked up to him, "I'm sorry, this isn't right." He looked me in the eyes. God, he's perfect. I flinched for a second. It was weird, because in that moment, a very familiar boy with dark hair, and chocolate brown eyes popped into my mind. All of a sudden, my thoughts about Blaine faded away. Colby's the one for me... or is he? Colby and I are thousands of miles apart. But Blaine's willing to love me right here, and right now. We aren't unbearably separated by distance. He's my best friend. He's a thrill seeker. But Colby is different...he's a different kind of perfection. Even miles and miles apart, he's managed to be there for me every hour of the day. He makes my life interesting, and he's never let me down. I love him, despite the fact that he has some type of issues with himself I can't quite figure out. Yet I love Blaine too, even though he might not ever want me the way I need him to want me. Who am I in love with? Do I even know what love is? Is the distance worth waiting for? Or should I go for what's right in front of me? Should I finally confess? All of these questions were flying through my brain, which was due to explode. But then it all hit me. There was one, very clear choice. How could I be so blind to this? Damn, I can't believe it took me this long to realize who's really right for me. Right then, I turned around and saw flashing lights. Code 798.
