Three

I can’t sleep. I know you’re still awake, but for a totally different reason: you have cases to review, while I can’t stop thinking about you.

Because I keep dreaming about us, even if we’re rarely together, because last time I saw you was on Valentine’s day with a friendly third wheel while another guy who might feel the same way could be with you in class, studying digests, dreaming about you and him as much as I dream of a you and I, only he’s literally closer to you than I could ever be, than I ever was.
