I wish I could take credit for this, but my best friend wrote it. It was written in the last half hour of our Geometry class, written by her while she was watching me do a puzzle. This is verbatim of what she gave me and there are errors, but I didn't really want to fix them.
She was sitting by herself, enjoying the almost quietness of the classroom. There were papers rustling and pencils scratching, but her mind was somewhere else. With a blank expression on her face, she focused on the puzzle that lie in front of her. The girl seemed stumped by the way she stared down at the shred up paper- chewing wildly on the end of her pencil.
She knew that she knew the answer. It was in her reach but she was still having trouble getting it.
4 letters, something a girl always wanted from a boy. Started with an "l".
Her guesses were lust and liar.
But then it came to her.
Love…
I was actually playing sudoku, but whatever.
