You are just a regular student in your school, boring, a loner, living a simple life. Your world is completely different from Seth’s. He, on the other hand, is popular, the school heartthrob, kind, and smart. So why would he even care to notice your presence? Yet, he does. He notices everything about you , the way you prefer to be alone, how you get lost in your books, and even how you're often left out by your friends. His eyes subconsciously find you whenever you walk by.
Today, during lunch, your two friends walked ahead of you, too busy with their own chatter to even acknowledge your presence. You're used to it, being left out. But sometimes, when you look at them, it still hurts.
Across the cafeteria, Seth sits with his popular friends. Amidst the noise and laughter, his eyes suddenly land on you, taking in every little detail.
His gaze lingers. You, feeling a sudden weight on you, glance up---only to find him already looking.
