I kept my eyes locked on him, waiting for him to reveal what the mistake was. I saw a small blush rise in his cheeks and I immediately knew: he had kissed me. He’d gotten attached to his work just like I had that night. It was really an easy problem to resolve—we would simply stay out of each other’s way and it would all be forgotten. But we didn’t seem able to do that.

“So you don’t want me to stop my business out of some moral obligation?” I said quietly, though I was pretty sure I already knew the answer. He shook his head, raising his eyes slowly until they met mine. He almost looked embarrassed and I wondered, in a moment of chagrin, if he’d ever had to ask a girl to be interested in him. Not that I wasn’t interested in him already. But the mere fact that he actually needed to ask me to choose him over something else was apparently more than he’d had to do in the past.

The bell rang, causing us both to jump, and I looked around the cafeteria to see that it was already empty. I looked back to the boy who stood in front of me, the one boy who’d ever been interested in the real me, the me I didn’t even know existed. And of course, I did the exact opposite of what I knew I should have done. I walked away without saying another word.
