A Crush!!!!

Well, I didn't really expect a normal meeting to turn out to something like this, but when it did, I am making sure I enjoy and savour every bit of it.
All this business started when I met this enormously talented and cute guy, liking everything I like (ugh, well, it was just a coincidence) one day. I did not think much when I met him the first time, but I realized what he was, a couple of meetings later. And then started one whole new discovery within me, that I, one who had branded crushes and the like as crap, was actually enjoying one.
And soon, every opportunity of meeting him gave me a whole day of joy. Yeah, I would have barely told him a 'Hi!' but even that was enough to send me whooping amounts of enjoyment. Aha, but it wasn't just this, I was also enjoying that wide smile which I would control at the right moment into just a warm 'Hi!', all those racy and fast- paced heart beats everytime I saw him and just that nice, cosy feeling.... well, I was living life. And seeing all his talents(and of course, coupled with his looks) I was highly impressed and concluded that the standards I had set for somebody I would like weren't that rare at all....
But alas! Well, things didn't really pick up, and now as I write, he is staying here for the last six months of his college life - and graduates this year. And Oh! Sadder than that is the time when I realized he might actually not fit the perfect picture I had framed him into, and I now know that my expectations are, actually, high.
But well, maybe those are just what a crush can guarantee.... those wide smiles (to him) and those wider, wider smiles(to myself!!), those rapid heart beats, that nice, favourite song playing back in my mind everytime.... Yes, I have enjoyed a crush!!!!!!
