That's...weird.
May 22, 2010
"Okay, on the count of three, we'll tell eachother who we like."
"Okay."
"One..."
My heart races.
"Two..."
I bite my lip and furrow my brow.
"Three."
Silence.
He looks at me with his sneaky, cat-green eyes.
"I like you."
Oh. Um, I don't get it, but, okay.
"That's...weird."
"Yeah."
"I like you, too."
It doesn't get much more awkward than that.
He hugs me.
Yes it does.
