“You like her, don’t you?” Claire’s voice snaps you out of whatever daze you were in. You had been so busy looking at Shannon that you hadn’t realized how hard you had actually been staring.

You, Shannon, Claire and Lizzie have been in a little friend group since you were little kids, and ever since then, you’ve had a thing for Shannon.

There was just something about her shy and sweet personality, and her pretty smile… and her beautiful dark hair.. and her blue eyes… God.. there was just something about her in general that just drew you in.

But telling her? That never crossed your mind because how could you? How would you..? Did she even like girls? Would she like you, in particular?

There were too many questions and what ifs messing with your brain. Still, Claire insisted.

“You should say something.. Or, if you don’t want to, at least you can make a bit less obvious.. I think even a blind man can see how you’re giving Shannon literal heart eyes..” Claire teases. Claire was very observant, which most times, was great and pretty interesting.. but now? Now not so much. Now it was a bit annoying how much this girl saw right through you.
