P.S. it’s not a poem…. Enjoy…..

I stood there frozen, not one idea what to do. I was trying to decide if I should regret what I had just done or not. He was standing right in front of me, his eyes piercing me, as if he was searching for something within me. His brown hair was swept to the right, he stood straight and still, his face not giving away any of the thoughts inside his head. He was so quiet that it took all my willpower not to burst into tears and start to run. Every second of silence that passed made it harder and harder to breathe. I was starting to wish I hadn’t told him; I wish I hadn’t told him that I had liked him for years, that I liked the way he smiled at me and called my name, that I loved the way he was loving to his family, that I liked the way that he treated everyone with respect even if he didn’t like them. Looking at his blank expression, I was starting to regret everything. Why wasn’t he saying anything? Just as I was about to give in and start crying, he smiled. He smiled! I blinked and he chuckled. My hammering heart suddenly felt nonexistent. I shakingly returned his smile and began to laugh. The tears going down my face were different than the ones that were going to go down before. He stepped closer to me and took me into his arms. He smelled good and felt so warm. I took a deep breath and slowly wrapped my arms around him to return his embrace. And as soon as I did….

I shot straight up to sit up, gasping as I did. I glanced at my clock….2:17A.M.

I sighed and laid back down. It took awhile to go back to sleep.
