I’m sitting there as the cold air stabs at my face.
Hands
warmed.
Feet chilled.
I look over and see you walking up the stairs.
My stomach
instantly free falls and twists and turns.
I’ve seen you around recently, but
neither of us has made any sort of effort to rekindle this friendship I’ve been
longing for.
I turn away, not wanting to
address the situation.
Not wanting to even acknowledge the fact that I saw you.
Then I hear your boots.
Your boots clicking so loudly that it makes my heart
race louder and louder with every step.
I turn and there you are.
Face to face.
No turning away, no hiding.
This moment I’ve been waiting so long for.
All I
can manage to force out is “Oh…hey…”
And you sit down.
Sit down like you would
have done a year ago.
Sit down as though we’ve continued our friendship over
this past year.
Like we never had a falling out.
Like we were still best
friends.
I’m shaking like a leaf.
Trying to hide the fact that I’m so beyond
excited that you’re sitting next to me.
So excited that I might actually have a
chance to revive everything I’ve been missing out on.
Excited to hear what on
your mind, how life’s treating you, how school’s going, what you’ve been
up to.
Just excited to be sitting next to you.
Just sitting.
Just talking.
Reliving
a conversation with my best friend.
I don’t know why this happened, what made
you come up to me, but I’m so beyond happy that you did.
I’m excited to jump into this sea of emotions.
I’m excited to jump into this sea of emotions.
I want to embark on a new journey.
And I can’t wait
for you to be a part of it.
I can’t wait to be able to call you my best friend
again.
"Nothing even matters anymore. Everything's great :)"
