“I wanted so
badly to lie down next to on the couch. to wrap my
arms around her and sleep. Not
fûck,like in those movies. Not even have séx.
Just sleep together in the most innocent sense of the phrase.
But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was
gawky and she was gorgeous and
I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating.
So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the botton bunk,
thinking that if people were
rain, I
was drizzle and she was a
hurricane.
