she walked in with such a glint in her eyes
and you walked in with a hidden smile on your face
you got your food
and immediately plopped down next to her
as if there was no where else you ever belonged
we had a group discussion
about things that don't even ******* matter
while you two shared tiny inside jokes
and conversed like it was only you both
that could hear
we walked out of the hall
and you two walked ahead
alone
hands swinging
occasionally touching
eyes shining with
something
you thought i wouldn't notice
the lingering glances
and whispered stories
and how you follow her around
like a lost puppy
looking for a treat
and how her face lights up
like a ******* christmas tree
when you text her
she exhales a tiny
"awwwwe"
and i know you've told her
something so characteristically sweet
and how she's so eager to respond
like she's been waiting to do it
all day long
and how she changes around you
and creates a personality
just for you
like how she flips her hair
and pouts her lips
and says dumb things
only so you'll explain them to her
in your adorable awed smart voice
how she gave you your first kiss last night
how you didn't think i'd see
you bending your neck
leading your hands to frame her delicate face
my once delicate face
crumpling in the stale silver moonlight
staggering home
and sleeping just so i'll
forget for once
that it was her
and not me
