The thing that makes the most sense that i have read all week

"Here you go, Sebastian," I say, when I've filled out the

guest pass and handed it to him. "Knock yourself out".

Sebastian looks down at the pass. "Wow," he says. For a

minute, he looks a lot less like a suspected killer and the

leader of a student revolution than just a scared kid who

got into something that's way over his head. "Thanks a lot,

Heather, You have no idea how much this means to me. I

mean, I know Sarah told you about my roommate situation,

and my parents got me a hotel room, but... Its nice for me

to be able to stay with Sarah. She... she means a lot. I just

didn't realise how much until recently."

Embarrassed, Sarah looks down at the pointed toes of her

high heels, blushing prettily seemingly unaware of

Sebastian's gaze on her. I am torn between wanting to hurl

and wanting to throw my arms around them. They're just

so... cute.

And I realise I'm feeling something else, a third thing. Envy.

I want that. What they have.

I thought I had it. Sort of. But fortunately, I realised in

time that I didn't. Not that I was in any real danger of doing

anything foolish about it, like getting married, or hiking the

Appalachian Trial for the summer.

Still. I'd like what the two of them have. Someday.
