I hope there's more to you and I 

than slanted smiles and goodnight texts, 

cheesy cards on holidays, and 

late-afternoon escapades. 

Mustn't there be something else that 

makes our heart's skip a beat, a 

quickening of my pulse as you

lean in, a little too close?

Otherwise aren't we just 

a couple of friends - 

pretending we're in love?
