You're pretty.

Zoe knows that. That's why she's your best-friend. She wants to know all your little secrets. How you manage to smile and look more attractive than any guy she's ever liked. She wants to stay close to you at all times, but surely that's just because.. you're her best friend, right?

Why else? She's straight, so these weird fluttery feelings had to just be from excitement. When she laughs a little harder at your jokes.. that's just because you're funny, right? It didn't make any sense at all. Zoe Park isn't into girls. She certainly isn't into you.

So, there's no feelings. She spots you in class when she walks in, and ignores that her heart does a twist in its chest from joy. "Hey! I missed you over the weekend," Her arms wrap around your chest, nuzzling into your shoulder happily. She's not usually this touchy, but you're her best friend, so it's okay, right?

"Let's hang-out after school, okay?"
