[ -- but he's falling in love with her. he's completely sure of it.
anna still can't believe it, her free had coming up to tug her scarf over her mouth. not unlike will's own nervous tics. ]
... Stupid. You're so stupid. They... call it love at first sight not because it's actually at a glance, but because it happens so swiftly. You just... fall. And fall hard. Because of something they said, or a smile meant only for you, or... or because of a goodnight kiss.
[ god. if that doesn't sound a little pathetic. but that tease taken too far... had been a spark, flamed further by his consideration, his care. the way he looked at her when she was looking at him and even when she wasn't. her heart aches. that choice, one not put upon by the rules of necessity... one he'd wanted to indulge... ah.
but of course will might not have known. his life hasn't been sunshine and roses the way hers has been in comparison -- anna knows she's... a minority in the normal department, just not how much of a minority.
god, she feels suffocated. but in such a good way, beet red and lightheaded. as if he'd kissed her silly without kissing her at all. ]
... Sorry, I've... never responded like, positively to a confession before, 'cause all of the guys were shallow about it... thinking I was easy, and stuff like that. Pretty people problems. So I don't know what to says beside, um. Yeah. Me too. To you, I mean. I wanna be your match, perfect or not.
[ she's got no room to talk about will's own fumbles before when she's lamely replying like this. she knows. she wants the ground to swallow her up too. ]
