“Don’t look at me like that.”

.

.

He’d mouthed the words, but she divined

His meaning

Well enough

From opposite his side of the classroom.

.

They’d been passing notes - 

She’d been found out,

The message had been read

Aloud, in front of everybody else.

.

She wasn’t happy.

.

.

“You shouldn’t have gotten caught.”

.

.

He shrugged, felt bad on her behalf

But knew

That there wasn’t much more

That he could really do.

.

.

“Be smooth next time.”

.

.

She was cute.

He liked her.

.

But she was livid.

.

And there wasn't much else that he could really do.

.

.

"sorry …"

.

.

He shrugged a second time

For good measure.

.
