School was more or less boring, so I'll cut to the chase. I saw Leo. I met up with Bambi, Kyle, and Antonio. Bambi and I went for dinner, and then met up with everyone else before the show. There were Chinese lanterns hanging from the ceiling to celebrate the Chinese New Year. We walked to where the show was being held and that's when I saw him. He was talking to someone and I blushed. Hard. I looked away and continued my conversation with Bambi. We found Kyle and got our seats. Leo was sitting in the same row as us. He looked good. More than good. I looked at him every chance I got. The play soon started, and it was actually very funny. After the play, Leo got right to work. He assisted in disassembling the stage and carrying the pieces downstairs. Bambi, Antonio, Kyle, and a few others gathered around and spoke and laughed. I participated and enjoyed seeing people. Still, I kept looking for Leo. I had to refill my water bottle, so I walked to the fountain. I saw Leo and a couple others carrying a piece of the stage. I looked at him and smiled. He and I only made eye contact 2 or 3 times, and only for a millisecond. He passed, and I returned to the gathering. I saw him a handful of times, but I remember each one. We left the school, went to the deli for a drink, then returned. As we were coming back, Leo was leaving. I gave him a big smile, as a sort of olive branch. I don't know whether he saw me or not. I watched him walk away into the night and I continued to joke around with the group. I miss Leo. I miss seeing him smile. I miss making him smile. Those times are over now, but I'll be missing them.
P.S. - I'll be opening the gift tomorrow. I have work early tomorrow morning so I just want to pass out now. Goodnight everyone. I don't say this enough, but thank you all for reading (and sometimes responding).
