No Small Thing (2003)
“Now I’m walking to school and I haven’t a clue what to do when I see her. Maybe I’ll ignore her like she isn’t even there. Or maybe I’ll give her a piece of my mind and tell her what a little witch she really is. Maybe I’ll punch Tyler in the face in front of the whole school and then walk over and plant a kiss right on Cheryl’s mouth. I’ll do that, then walk away and leave her standing there wishing for more.
But I don’t do any of these things. When I get to history class, she’s sitting in her seat. I just sit in my seat too and try to think of a way to turn around and take a look at her, the same as always. When I do manage to catch a glimpse, she doesn’t even notice me. She’s bent over her book—in her blue sweater and looking prettier than ever—poring over some boring bit of history. Just looking at her, so beautiful like that, I suddenly know that I’m doomed. I’ll never beable to say no to her, or be mean to her, or ignore her. I’ll never be able to get over her, ever.
