Description You're sitting on my bed and I
so badly
want to be sitting next to you, but
Amanda moved too
close
and now Danielle and Melanie are sitting on the bed and there's just
not enough room for me.
I try not to
panic
and instead I
lean nonchalantly against
my roommate's bed.
We're supposed to watch the third Harry Potter movie;
that's what we chose,
anyway.
We don't.
Patrick is siting next to me,
loud
as ever.

Whack!

You slam
your phone down on
the ledge of the window.
I look
up,
but no one
notices.
There are too many people in this room for
my attention span.
I only pay attention to
you
because you are sitting
on my bed,
right by my pillows—and
oh god,
what if my bed smells like you
after you leave?

Whack!

You have a girlfriend.

Whack!

An annoying girlfriend,
clearly.

Whack!

You keep
slamming
your phone down every time she sends you a text message.

Whack!
Whack!
Whack!

I'm gloating on
the inside.  But my
face is
red
and I'm
sweating
underneath my grey sweater.

Whack!

You say that you like vanilla
scented things and I have
vanilla scented body wash sitting
in front of you on my dresser.
It smells heavenly.

Whack!

I look up at you.
You catch my
glance and
smile.

Whack!
—this time, it's my heart.
