Back in class a light chatter filled the room
We played it cool
Student Council was starting
That meant me and you know who was leaving soon
I was full of hope from the crumpled note
Going over what she wrote
“I bet you wont"
Was what it said a simple answer to question posed
My secret message now exposed had struck gold
I was overcome with a joy
I couldn’t control
Even still I felt myself getting more nervous
with every moment as the events began to unfold
I snapped back
back to reality
all I could see was desiree packing her things
I Knew it was time my legs got weak
My heart
Skipped a beat
I tried to move but my feet had fell asleep
It was like my body
Was glued
To the seat
Once I was freed
I started walking with
Desiree next to me
She gave my hand a squeeze
As we started to leave
I could barely breathe
but before
we could get
out the door
I heard the teacher
