Crazy Beating Heart

Crazy beating heart… Yes, this is the title. If you’ll ask why, well because my heart is beating crazily. Let me tell you the story.

Yesterday, the prom, I asked my classmate if she could accompany me to the CR. Well, she did. The name calling was not yet over and pairs were still going in the hall. As we were walking in the hallway, we met with 2 pairs of couples. In one couple, the girl was like talking so loud. I knew her. She was my classmate in the first year. I just looked at her then went on my way.

When we went passed them, she was still talking. My friend and I were on our way to the CR. That’s when I felt something. It was like the urge to look back to my classmate in my first year. I did and did not expect what happened next.

It was my intention was to look at her. But I found myself looking eye to eye with her pair: my crush. At first, I thought it was just normal but it isn’t. I realized that my friend and I were now walking slowly and she kept talking to me but did nor hear her. Him, on his side, is now standing still. His partner still talking to him. After for like a few seconds, we both turned our gazed. It was then that I realized what just happened.

My original plan when I went to the CR is just to stay there for a while. But I went in to one of the cubicles and trying to forget what just happened. ‘It was just that’ I kept telling myself. But I knew what happened. I knew what this is. This crazy beating heart of mine.
