I glanced over at her. She was sat on the other side of Miss Holliday. 'If only she was next to me, where she really belongs.' I thought. Brittany was sat, head down, her cheeks flushed. I saw her head rise, looking at our fellow glee club members. I completely forgot they were even here; let alone listening to me belt out how I really felt about Britt.
After what seemed like forever, Brittany turned to look at me, her eyes tearful. I know that she didn't entirely know what she was singing about, but she definitely knew how I felt. Brittany smiled at me, and I smiled back. Now that I knew I had her attention, I couldn't help but let a single tear fall down my cheek. I guess a couple more followed though, since Brittany now had a panic stricken look across her gorgeous face. I could tell that she wanted to reach out and touch me, comfort me, but even she knew that there were boundaries when we were in school.
'Landslide' came to an end, our friends clapping and cheering, Miss Holliday beaming at Britt and me, but all I wanted to do was be in her arms. I slid off my stool and she gracefully copied. I walked over to her, and slowly wrapped my arms around hr neck, clearing the last few tears from my system. I couldn't bear for her to see me like this, but how can I hide something from her, if it's what I truly feel? She pulled me tighter into her and I could feel everything about her now. I could feel the tingle of her breath on my neck, her arms drawing patterns on my lower back, and the rise and fall of her chest as she sighed. I could feel where I was. I was at home.
