You and your best friend of 3 years, Nicholas, were in the hallways of your school. You were saying how much you wanted a boyfriend and he listened intently, nodding every now and then.

“I just… Does any guy want me? I feel like the most unattractive person in the world…” You said.

He nodded as a look of guilt went over his expression.

“I want someone to hold my face and caress my cheeks while looking into my eyes… y’know?” You asked.

His eyebrows raised as he blushed faintly. He cupped your face into his hands and kissed your forehead.

“Like this..?” He asked softly with a warm smile.
