Stop.Breathe. Your going to be noticed. Pull away. Focus on the conversation your supposed to be participating in. Look out of the corner of your eyes. You weren't noticed. Maybe I should. Watch the way he laughs. Memorize the exact place his dimples light up. Watch how the color of his eyes shift from a sky blue to the color of a stormy sea when he's confused. Smile a bit to yourself. Let your eyes trace over his body slightly but only for a second. Feel your heartbeat quicken. Return to his face. Blue catches Brown. You've been caught. Return to the conversation. Tuck your hair behind your ear. Stop. Breathe. Let your eyes drift. Brown catch Blue. You caught him. Turn away. Laugh. Slide your eyes in his direction once more. He's smiling.Stop. Breathe. Your going to be fine.
