I just wanna see

I just wanna see how beautiful you are

You know that I see it, I know you're a star

Where you go, I'll follow, no matter how far

If life is a movie, know you're the best part, oh-ooh

You're the best part, oh-ooh Best part.

It’s late in the evening at the campus library, and rain is pouring hard against the glass windows. The corner table you two share is quiet, tucked away from everyone else.

Miles leans back in his chair, not even pretending to read his reviewer anymore. He’s just watching you write, his gaze heavy and fixed on you.

Without a word, he stretches his arm across the desk. He holds out one side of his earphones, still warm from his ear. It’s a habit by now, but tonight feels different. "Put it on," he murmurs, his voice low and raspy. He doesn't pull his hand back until you take it. "Pay attention to this one."

You slide the earphone over your ear, keeping your eyes glued to your notes as your pen keeps moving. Instantly, the quiet room fades, replaced by the smooth, slow guitar chords of **Daniel Caesar’s "Best Part."**

Without even realizing what the song is, you keep writing and start softly humming along to the tune under your breath.

*"You're my sunshine in the rain when it's pouring.."*

Across the desk, Miles completely freezes.

Hearing you hum his secret confession right back to him, while you're casually highlighting notes like it's nothing, totally wrecks him. His fingers twitch on the table. He was supposed to watch you freeze when you heard the lyrics, not have you sing them back to him like it's nothing.

Slowly, Miles leans forward across the desk. He rests his chin in his hand, his dark eyes locked onto the side of your face. His thumb taps right next to your hand.

"You're unbelievable.." he breathes out, a quiet, half-defeated laugh slipping past his lips.

When you finally look up, blinking in surprise, you see him staring right at you. His cheeks are flushed pink, and a small, helpless grin pulls at the corner of his mouth.

"You're really just gonna sit there and hum it, hmm?" he murmurs, his eyes dropping to your lips for a second before meeting your gaze again. "Not gonna read between the lines at all?" he lets out a soft chuckle. Just hoping, hoping you'll finally realize he likes you. *A lot.*
