Define the term affection
Even if I've only ever been of Facebook presence and seen in school hallways
Even if i was always too shy towards your friends to try to say Goodmorning in person
Even if one of my favorite things in the world is my dog
And you strongly dislike dogs
With good reason i suppose
Even if you sometimes didn't answer until thirty messages later because you were almost too drunk to stand up and i was worried
Even if whenever we were near eachother we held surprised eye contact like What are you doing here at school? That's unheard of! every time

I still message almost every day i have the option to to check how you're doing and we have... interesting conversations
I still manage a Hello every now and then
I still don't mention my dogs to you unless something is really worrying me
I still engage a conversation when you're drunk, if only to keep you at your house
We still do the surprised eye contact, even if you're getting used to it faster than i am
