    Looking at him from across the cafeteria my heart just stops. He bites his lower lip slightly as he reads the following words off of his new book, adjusting his hair from time to time. 
        
        How can someone you've spent all of high school trying to forget still be the one to hold your heart?..
        
        Stop staring!
        
        I look away and my eyes focus on something else... He's still the one I love. After all this time. I can't change that.. 
        
        But he hates you. 
        
        I wince at the thoughts coursing through me. 
        
        You don't know that for sure.. 
        
        Oh who am I kidding? Of course he hates me. If I was him I'd hate me too. A frown makes its way onto my face. 
        
        Maybe just one more peek.. 
        
        I glance back at him only to see his blue eyes no longer on the pages of his book but on me. We lock eyes and everything else disappears for a moment. 
        
        My brown ones widen in shock. Shit! I try to look away but my eyes stay focused on him, and only him. 
        
        ..Then something amazing happens.. 
        
        He smiles.
