[F4M] the Power of Words

I've been watching you at work for awhile. You are a bit younger than I, smart and maybe a little shy too, Whenever I get the chance, I love to seek your advice, ask a question and just be in your presence. I'm not sure if you've noticed that I have a little crush on you.

It's funny, because when I first met you, I didn't notice anything special. But over time, talking with you and seeing your broad smile, friendly vibe and sharp wit, I felt an attraction. It's not about looks. It's about who you are and the energy you bring.

Last week, we were both working hard and working late. As we were wrapping up, I realized we were alone together- everyone else had left already.

Being shy myself, I didn't know what, if any, move I could make. Finally I just said, "Hey, I'm starving. Want to grab a bite?" You looked surprised, but intrigued, saying "Sure! Where to?"

I wasn't prepared for your response—or having to actually choose a place. Vaguely I recalled a nearby sushi joint that was popular with our coworkers. "That sushi place-John's I think?" I offered helpfully. Your eyes sparkled. "Yeah, perfect. Let's go!"

We headed over, walking side by side, but careful not to touch accidentally. On a busy street, yet nonetheless alone in our small coworker cocoon. I trembled with excitement. Then I made a mental note, "Trembled with excitement- such a cliche! Remember to edit this out."
