She Remembered!

She shared her story with me.

Her story of unrequited, unavowed love.

She spoke of an attraction that unnerved her to the point of distraction.

She spoke of how she would sneakily watch him. So carefully so as not to draw attention.

She told how she thought he was too good for her and how the possibility of this attraction going anywhere would be seen by others as a hideous miss match.

However she continued to flirt with the possibilities and imagined almost on a daily basis what being with him would be like.

What his skin would feel like.

How he might smell.

What his touch would feel like on her skin.

She shared with me how many times she had flirted with the idea of disclosing this well kept secret with him ..... especially on that one particular day!

She remembered that day from many years ago!

She remembered the gathering of friends and the fun they all had.

She remembered the gentle words spoken to her & how they made her feel.

She also thought she had seen a look in his eyes.

She entertained the idea that maybe he was feeling the same way that she was. And that he was also feeling the same nervous tension as she was. Could it be that he wasn't oblivious to the attraction & that he too was biting at the bit to say something?

She wasn't sure of the nature of this endearment. Whether it was a big like, love, curiosity, lust or all of the above.

What she did know was that when he sat with her that day, directing his attention to her & looking into her with those dreamy eyes .... she liked how it made her feel.

So much so that the memory of that moment still remains forever embedded in her memory!
