Intro
Nate’s senior year was growing boring,the absence of a woman in his life leaving a heavy hole in his heart. Throughout the school year,Nate watched his friends wrap their hands around their girlfriend’s waist or hip-something burning within him.

Over the weeks,the two made continuous eye contact-it was like a game they’d play anytime they were near each other.Especially in the bustling hallways of the school.

He was jogging towards her,waving his hand as he called out,
Nate said,stopping in front of her.
