college!megan who rarely pays any attention in class spotted you two rows down from her. she noticed how you actually gave the lecture your time of day — jotting down notes, highlighting your textbook, etc.
college!megan who brushes things off rather quickly (due to several distracting factors) couldn’t seem to get you and your cheap stationary out of her mind after observing you in class.
college!megan who started showing up a few minutes earlier each day of the week just to catch a glimpse of you before the lecture just to observe your last few moments of normalcy before academics have to kick in.
college!megan who starts moving around the classroom just to be in your visual space — to sort of acknowledge her existence without pressing.
college!megan who starts lowkey walking behind you to exit class. not in a creepy-stalker way — just observant.
college!megan who spent an entire lecture trying to think of ways to come up to you and start a conversation. for such a popular girl, you’d think conversation is easy for her. when reality hits, it’s quite the opposite.
she’d rehearse lines and scenarios over and over again until she felt like she was going crazy for no reason.
“i’ll just ask for a pen… no, that’s too short.”
“i’ll tell her i like her outfit when she stands up… is that too much?”
“i’ll just ask for notes after class.”
college!megan who tried to make casual conversation when she caught you in the flow of traffic along the steps to exit the classroom.
“hey, uh— did you take some notes? i kinda zoned out for the whole thing.”
you hadn’t ever spoken to her. you were barely able to see the side of her face in class, her black highlighted hair being the main takeaway when you’re two rows up. you knew she existed, but nothing past that.
“oh yeah. i’m just trying to be quick for my next class—“
“could you maybe send me them?“
at that point, you smiled a bit. her quick response was enough to understand she probably made this up just to get your social media handle.
college!megan who smiled every time you sent her notes through her instagram dm’s.
college!megan who started sitting by you during lessons because you insisted that she should just copy your notes there.
college!megan who distracted you from lessons with whispered conversations about stupid things. unfortunately, you actually enjoyed her yapping as opposed to professor martin mansplaining economics.
“i was literally in line at the cafeteria when someone fainted… everyone was crowding around the person and i was trying to get my food. i legit noticed by the pair of ugg boots that it was my friend — im literally wearing our matching boots right now!”
college!megan who started inviting you to frat parties as her “plus-one”.
college!megan who pulls you through crowds with her hands interlocked with yours.
college!megan who kept you close no matter how many times you guys went out to these functions. whether it be shoulder brushes, hand grabbing, or snaking an arm around your waist — whatever she can to show you’re here with her. not even as anything, just… with her.
college!megan who introduces you to random people that look too used to this type of routine.
college!megan who notices when someone else starts talking to you a little too long. it leaves some sort of sting, but she doesn’t want to mentally note it as jealousy. she typically just excuses herself go “get another drink.”
college!megan who started picking up on little things — like when you’ve had too much to drink, when your social battery dies out, or when your body seems like it’s been running on three hours of sleep.
college!megan who started walking you home after parties, sometimes staying sober just so she can do so consciously.
college!megan who started taking the longer walk to your dorm. she takes the quickest route to get back to hers after dropping you off.
college!megan who starts texting you even when you last saw each other ten minutes beforehand.
college!megan who starts bringing coffees to lectures for you both.
college!megan who would be there for all your hangovers. whether it be providing some advil, sunglasses, holding your hair back when your body regrets the alcohol, or merely just company — she’s got your back.
college!megan who starts staying inside your dorm when walking you home. sometimes, she even sits at the edge of your bed, her converse just dangling off the ground.
college!megan who didn’t plan on going to a party one night, but you already showed up and started texting her and asked her if she’s coming.
college!megan who usually finds you in the less crowded spaces in a fraternity house sipping on something you shouldn’t be.
college!megan who didn’t expect you to kiss her at a party. you were tipsy and she thought you didn’t really mean it.
college!megan who tries not to make you feel awkward when you sober up and recall your actions on the night before.
college!megan who tries to act the same even after you kissed her. she even checks your little details (ex. laughing the same way you always did) in case you changed after the kiss.
college!megan who starts overthinking every text you send her.
college!megan who unintentionally starts avoiding you by hanging out with her popular friends more often. maybe just to avoid confrontation and her lack of confidence around you.
college!megan who realizes you’ve been showing up to lectures and parties less than usual.
college!megan who speaks up about the tension the first time she catches you around again. it wasn’t harsh, but rather relieving due to both of you being able to easy conversation.
college!megan who initiates the first real kiss when you’re both sober.
