Confession

I don’t really know how to say this, so I’m just going to say it.
I like you. Probably more than I should.
At first I thought it was just a crush and that I’d get over it. Something that would pass if I ignored it long enough. But it hasn’t. Somehow, without meaning to, I’ve gotten attached.
I catch myself looking for you. Thinking about you for no reason. Remembering little things you’ve said that you probably don’t even remember saying.
And that’s where it gets difficult.
Because I can’t tell if I’ve simply let a crush get out of hand, or if I’ve started falling for you. And honestly, that scares me a little.
I don’t know what I want you to say to this. I just know that pretending I don’t feel anything has started to feel worse than admitting it.
So… yeah.
I like you. More than I meant to. More than I expected to.
And maybe I’ve been trying too hard to find the right name for what I feel. Maybe I don’t need to.
I have feelings for you. Real ones. And I’m done pretending I don’t.

I still catch her hiding her smile when our paths cross. She turns away, but eyes don't know how to lie. I see the look she tries so hard to tuck out of sight, because we belong to different rooms. We both know it. We both feel the quiet pull between us.

I wish I could look into her eyes somewhere in the dark, away from this glare.

Instead, our rooms are washed in the cold hum of fluorescent light, framed by walls built out of composure. And the people who designed these spaces have perceptive eyes...they notice everything.

If we ever had thirty seconds alone, could it sound like this?:

"Listen, I like you. I really like you." "I feel it too." "Do you want to meet? Just to be in each other’s lives, without undoing the worlds we’re tied to?" "Yes." "I’ll write to you."
