i dreamt about you last night. we were talking, eating, and laughing. i was happy. i haven't felt that happy in five years. i was just staring at you and you'd catch me and stare back. and we sat there in silence absorbed in each other. it baffles me it's been three years since we had a conversation. i miss you. i miss the way you used to make me laugh in fourth period. i miss the way you made me smile just by looking at me. i miss the way you used to tell me sweet nothings. i miss the way you lit up a room with your laughter. i miss everything about you. from the that's what she said jokes to complaining about algebra. i remember being in algebra when you said i was the smartest girl you knew. i just stared at you because there were smarter girls than me in class. but the look in your eyes and the smile you gave me made me believe you. i remember just smiling at myself for the remainder of class. and you noticed. you said i had a pretty smile. i was so naive back then. i never realized how strong my feelings for you were. i thought it was just a crush. please talk to me. even if it's about football and how bad you guys are. just talk to me. i miss you.
