Let’s be together forever, okay?

You remember what she said that time, so long ago, when you were children, so happy and innocent

And now, you look at her, in high school, making out intensely with her boyfriend, Thoma, in a corner of the hall, barely in sight. You look at them, heart twisting, but they don’t even realize you are there

You sigh. She is popular, you aren’t. Maybe its for the better. She is still your best friend, after all. Maybe that’s all you need.

When class started, she sat next to you, like she always does when she isn’t in the same class as Thoma.
