A & B

A and B are two of my friends, and I think they're in love. They haven't told one another, but they have told me. I kinda love them both, but definitely not in the same way.

A is a nerd. He works hard, plays videogames, and reads comic books. We went on holiday to Croatia together. We got into a state and he told me, in an awkward and roundabout way, that he thinks he loves her. At the time I dismissed him and told him it was cheesy. I wish I hadn't.

B is German. She used to do hip-hop dancing as a girl and has big boobs. I don't know much else about her, but we get along well. She pities me and my nonesistant love life. I act aloof but I like it when she makes me feel better about myself. We got into a state at an after-exams party and she told me that she is in love with him. I told her that it must feel incredible to say it aloud, and that I was happy for her.

A and B are a odd couple. They hit one another and say that they hate on another. They joke that they are going to break up and that they would like to sleep with other people. A and B cancelled their trip across America this year. I think A believes that I would steal his girlfriend if given the chance. I find it funny that he genuinely thinks im capable of  that.

I'm a bit wierd, and sometimes I like to think about their relationship. The young student couple, terrified that work, time, and life will conspire together to end their happiness. I like to think about my own role. As a hopeless romantic I know it isn't my place to tell either one how the other feels. As a friend I would like to help them overcome their anxieties. Most of the time, though, I don't know what to think. I hope it works out for them. I think it will.
