She wants to leave

I'd follow her anywhere, so of course I agree.

We walk back to the dorm. It's not far.

"I can see people,"  she says.

I laugh, that makes no sense.

"I can see people for what they really are, I can see their personalities. The orange girl? She's fruity."

I ask what I look like

"Cute"

I look at her and say, "That's not a personality trait"

She shrugs, "You're just bright. It kind of hurts to look at you. You shine."

I laugh again.

She makes no fucking sense. 

But I love her.
