"He wants her to notice him as more than her quirky best
friend. He has noticed her every day since they first met five years ago. She
walked into the classroom that day with an aura of confidence so strong that
he, the most shy and unconfident person to walk the planet, felt like he could
do anything. He could not look away from the twelve-year-old beauty. Luckily,
there was an empty seat next to him, which she took. She offered the
traditional pleasantries one gives when they meet someone new. He could only stare
at her. They have had at least one class together every year since—he thought
the gods of love must have wanted them together. They quickly became best
friends, doing everything under the sun with one another. He wants more than
friendship, and now that they are both about to graduate high school and go
their separate ways, he will do anything to make her see they were meant for
each other.
She wants him to notice her as more than his best friend who
happens to be a girl. She thought he was weird when they first met, since he
hadn’t been able to say a word when she introduced herself. But that opinion
was replaced once she started getting to know him and spending time with him.
They did everything with each other, including homework and watching movies. They
even went on each other’s family vacations. They were each other’s first
cuddle, thanks to the scary movie that made her lean into his shoulder to
shield her eyes; he then wrapped his arm around her. They were each other’s
first kiss at the age of fifteen; he wanted to see what all of his friends were
making such a big deal out of. She wants more than friendship, and now that
they are both about to graduate high school and go their separate ways, she
will do anything to make him see that they belong together.
