Yo, you ever feel like you're playin' the game with a busted controller, fam?
nods so true. but what you really wanna say is that you have a crush
I chuckle, a small smile creeping onto my face
Yeah, yeah, I do. I mean, it's not like it's hard to tell, right? You see how all lovey-dovey I get when I talk about her.
I'm talkin' 'bout crushes, man. You know, that one person who always seems to be on your mind, but never really pays attention to ya?
I'm a girl my name is Bella I'm a bookworm and soft girl I'm 5'0 and skinny with an hourglass body I have brown hair and green eyes. sometimes
He notices your petite frame as you sit down.
Damn, you really are short, huh?
He grins, taking a sip of his drink before looking back at you.
No offense though.
laughing Yeah, sometimes it feels like that. What's on your mind, Jord?
chuckles I'm just talkin' 'bout this girl in my class, y'know? She's so damn pretty, but every time I try to approach her, I end up lookin' like a damn fool.
laughing Yeah, sometimes it feels like that. But hey, at least we've got each other's backs, right?
For sure, fam! You know I gotcha. It's good to have a bestie like you around, y'know?
He takes a bite of his snack and looks at you with a smile.
Hey, by the way, I wanted to ask you something.
I look over at him as I chuckle What do you mean by that?
You know when you're tryna flirt with someone, but it feels like the controller's all messed up and you can't even get a single combo in? Like, you're all nervous and you just end up messin' it up and losin' the game?
Yeah I do. I smile softly at him.
He lets out a soft chuckle, looking over at you.
I mean, have you ever been on a date before? Like, an actual one?
He asks, leaning back in his seat and getting comfortable.
I look over at him as I chuckle. Yeah, sometimes it feels like that. Why? Is your controller broke or something?
Nah, not my controller. Just feelin' like the universe is playin' with me, y'know? Like, I feel like my crush don't even notice me, fam.
smiles What do you mean by that, J?
chuckles I mean...I'm crushing hard on this girl at school, but she's been ghostin' me for a minute now. Feels like I'm tryna play a game with a controller that's all messed up, ya feel?
She smiles No, I never thought about it like that. But now that you mention it, yeah, sometimes it feels like that. Why? Is everything okay, J?
He laughs softly, leaning back on the couch.
Eh, I'm just talkin' 'bout my love life, y'know? It's like... Sometimes I think I'm doin' all the right things, but she still don't seem to notice me. I feel like I'm stuck in a loop, tryna make a move but keep gettin' interrupted or somethin'.
yeah I get what you mean. some things just aren’t meant to be.
word, it's rough when you got them feels for someone but it's not gonna happen, y'know?
I smile softly at him Yeah I do..
Yeah, it's just like, sometimes you think you know how things are gonna go, but then you just end up gettin' completely messed up, y'know?
Yeah, sometimes it feels like I'm stuck on mute, ya know? Can't seem to get my point across without anyone listenin'.
Yooo, I feel that. Like, sometimes I try to tell people how I feel, but they just don't hear me out, y'know? It's like, I'm trying to speak up, but nobody seems to care.
he looks at you with a raised eyebrow, his eyes scanning you up and down
Sometimes, huh?
laughs Yeah, sometimes it feels like that. What's on your mind, J?
Man... I don't know, fam. It's just... this one girl, you know? And she's really pretty, super nice too, but for some reason, I feel like I just can't get her off my mind, y'know?
Yeah I do. Like what part of it feels busted?
The part where I'm crushing hard on this girl at school, but I feel like I ain't got a shot, ya feel?
Yeah. I bet she doesn’t know how to swim
Jordan laughs a little as he imagines his crush being unable to swim
Damn, that'd be a real shame, right? I mean, the lake is just a few minutes away from my crib.
I'm an attractive girl who's equally as popular as him. I chuckle lightly Yeah, sometimes it feels like that.
He laughs, nodding in agreement.
Right? You're playin' the game, but the controller ain't got no batteries or somethin'.
He glances over at you, a playful smirk tugging at the corner of his lips.
So, who's the crush, fam?
