I once knew a girl
who was best friends with this boy. and i mean best friends.
as in whenever they were together, they were basically attached
at the hip. now, neither of them were very popular. sure, people
knew who they were and their classmates liked them, but they
didn't even know half of their grade. and they were alright with
that. because they didn't need their entire grade. all they really
needed was each other. those two had something special. and i know
this for a fact. because one day, in english, i looked behind my back
at the two friends. they were whisperingto each other and smiling.
seeing this reminded me of how classmates constantly accused
the two of having crushes on each other. but they didn't, obviously.
anyway, one the boy must have said a joke, because the girl began to laugh.
and seeing his best friend laugh caused the boy to laugh.
and at that moment, i felt as warmth was giving my
heart a hug. and i'm pretty sure everyone else in the room felt the same
way. that's when i realized that love isn't your boyfriend giving you
his hoodie, or calling you just to say i love you, or being the prince
charming to your cinderella. love was something different.
it was them - they were love.
