I open my mouth to say something to him.
Stop.
I fake a yawn to cover the awkwardness.
Breathe.
My heart beats faster and louder.
Move.
We make eye contact.
Stop.
He walks towards me.
Breathe.
He asks to sit next to me
Move.
I rearrange and fumble with my lunch.
Stop.
We make eye contact.
Breathe.
The early bell rings.
Move.
He follows me.
Stop.
I turn around to speak to him.
Breathe.
He kisses me.
Stay.
