Did You Know?

You weren’t talking about anything serious. Just music. But then he said, “That one always makes me feel like I’ve lost something I never had.” And suddenly, you weren’t just sharing songs. You were bleeding memories through speakers.

You were mid-rant, half annoyed at something small, when he said, “I love when you care out loud like this.” And suddenly, your frustration felt like intimacy.

You asked what he’d do if you were lying next to him. He said, “Absolutely nothing… until your body stopped tensing when I got close.”

He didn’t ask about your past. He asked how to make the future feel less like a risk and more like a room with two chairs and no exit plan.

He said “not looking to rush,” but he’s already texting like you’re boyfriends. Classic South Pasadena pacing.

You told him you hate starting over. He said, “Then let’s just continue — from wherever your heart left off last time.”

He didn’t care what you looked like under the lights. He asked what kind of shadows make you feel safest.

The light behind him flickered. He didn’t notice — but you did. That one imperfect frame made him real. Touchable. Wantable.

The shadows move across his face. You follow every flicker like a trail.
