wanted to show up at his apartment and let myself inside, but I knew I shouldn’t. I wanted to call him and tell him that I took everything back, but I knew it was too late. Maybe if I’d just continued to play it cool and not force him into a relationship yet, he’d be here right now, lying beside me in bed. Instead, I had no idea where he was, who he was with, or what he was thinking. I’d have given anything to get into his head sometimes.
