“Are you in?”

“I am so in.”

The boy, Will grabs the end of the pool cue and they begin to walk through the halls of the hospital together. Almost like they’re holding hands.

I look down at mine and Anna’s hands. I consider reaching out and grabbing hers. No. I try to snap myself out of it. She’s my best friend.

I look back up at the screen. I still can’t believe I agreed to watch this dumb cheesy romance, but… it IS kinda cute. Like Anna. God, I have a one track mind. I think about her all of the time. But how do I know she feels the same way? I mean we practically hang out every day. She means so much to me. Of course I like her. I mean, hell, I love her. And not in a cheesy romantic scary way, in a ‘I’ve known you forever and you are literally the most important person in the world to me and I would do anything for you.’ Kind of way. Like, whether we’re friends or more. Like I just want to be around her and watch her be everything I’ve come to love.

Lost in my thoughts—my thoughts of her—I don’t even realize when I reach my hand out towards hers. I don’t comprehend it until I’ve laced my fingers through hers and i’m watching a soft smile stretch across her face. Until I’m watching her try to hide it… and fail.

Until I’m watching us fall in love.

The End
