Bump, hmph, sorry
cough, sorry, excuse me
“Have I seen you before?”
“Do you have poli sci at noon?”
“No, I guess I haven’t”
shuffle, scuffle, scatter
Should have got her number
Should have asked his name
Could have lingered just a second longer
Maybe brushed her hand when I reached down
Batted my eyelashes at him in interest
Oh wait I have her history essay
Jane, what a pretty name
Where did I leave my essay?
psst, “Jane?”, “turn around”
“I found this”
“Thanks uhh ummm…”
“It’s Zach, are you free tomorrow?”
A nod, a giggle, a glance
“It’s funny where you end up when you’re not watching where you’re going.”
