When you get what you want

He used to smile at me like that.

But I didn’t want to let him in. I was too afraid of how it would be if he left.

Just a friend. He’s just a friend.

If he was just a friend, then why did all my other friends tease me?

I must have let him in by accident. So why was I okay with that?

But then it worked. All the sudden, he really was just a friend. My friends stopped teasing me. And I got what I wanted.

What I wanted.

What I thought I wanted.

What I pretended I wanted.

I don’t want to think about what I had really wanted. But I wish…

I wish I had smiled back.
