They had weird sitting plans at lunch at... Lamar? I think it was Lamar. Yes, because it was the same place I was chosen to play trombone. They sat the girls in the class on one side; the boys on the other. Naturally, it was only a matter of time before I ended up sitting across from her. It may have happened multiple times, but I remember the first time. I couldn't look at her, much less meet her eyes. In fact, I have trouble remembering any time when I really met her eyes. Wait. The hallway, walking from Horizons, when I apologized for breaking up with her (I have no clue about any of this, by the way - I've firmly established I never had, nor ever will, a firm grasp on human emotions or relationships); the time at the skating rink when she was leaving, and I fell, and she helped me up. I looked everywhere else that lunch period, everywhere else except at the person across the table from me.
