I just need to know that someone out there listens and understands and doesn't try to sleep with people even though they could have. I need to know that these people exist.
I look at people holding hands in the hallways, and I try to think about how it all works. At school dances, I sit in the background, and I tap my toe, and I wonder how many couples will dance to "their song." In the hallways, I see the girls wearing the guys' jacket, and I think about the idea of property. And I wonder if anyone is really happy. I hope they are. I really hope they are. (Stephen Chbosky)
