I crank up the volume on my iPod as I walk to my locker.

Do you ever think
When you’re all alone
All that we could be
Where this thing could go
Am I crazy or falling in love?
Is it real or just another crush
Do you catch a breath?
When I look at you
Are you holding back?
Like the way I do

The cold fall air brushes my face as I walk with a spring in my step. Drawing your face in my head, a smile comes to my face as it has all day. I hum the song that I know by heart. My smile becomes a grin when I hear your words in my head. Butterflies form when I see you in the distance.

I never thought I would be happy because of you. I never thought you would consume my thoughts. I am now filled with a new hope as you walk to me. I can’t wait for what is to come, no matter what it is.
