I miss you boy.

I'm finding that I really miss the boy who sat two seats over from me in math. I don't even know his name, I never spoke to him, but I miss him... a lot. I don't even know if he dropped the class, or was deployed. I did hear him talking to our professor about being in the military and deployment soon. :( If that's the case I hope he's ok.


Things I miss about this boy...

1. His sweet baby smile. He smiles, and suddenly you are too. It's like looking at an adorable little baby smiling at you.

2. The way he speaks. I love the way he pronounces words, with his "black accent"... I especially miss him saying the words "negative two." "A negative times a negative is always a positive."

3. I also miss all his phrases. "Ah, my bad." "You would get two... negative two my bad." "Wait how did you get that?" *Professor gets about halfway through the explaination* "Ah, I see! My bad." I laugh.

4. I miss the way he would just shout out answers, usually incorrect, and our professor would make this strange noise that sounds like car tires screeching to a stop. The boy would smile, and throw us one of his usual phrases. :)

5. I miss just looking towards that part of the room and seeing him, he was so nice. Now I look in that direction and see this snobbish girl, and the two boys who constantly talk about sex and make fun of people in our class. He was the only good person over there.

6. I miss getting that baby smile from him if he ever caught me staring. It was actually pretty cute, and he fascinated me.

7. I miss that I may never find out his name... why didn't I ever ask?

8. I miss him... everything.
