🧃📚 "You’ve been acting weird."

—He says it like a joke. Like it’s funny.

Like your heart isn’t sprinting every time he looks at you for too long.

You’ve known him since your awkward middle school years.

Since braces and bad haircuts.

Since “ew, gross” turned into “wait, why do I care who he’s texting?”

But now?

He’s sitting on his dorm floor, watching you fidget.

And you swear he’s finally seeing it.

Not just the popcorn in your lap. Not just your favorite hoodie.

You.
