Day 1: Countdown to midnight

Something amazing happened. Andy called. He told me I was right, Emilia clearly has feelings for him. I couldn't believe my ears. At the same time, another feeling emerged. He was awfully sweet to me on the phone. I remembered good times with him, his 6-month old crush on me, our kiss, his hapiness in seeing me. It overwhelmed me. Maybe the movie I was watching affected my brain (I mean we're talking about "Something's gotta give" here). I was in a sudden romantic mood.
I saw romantic scenes in my head, a mix between the movie and my dreams. The both of us walking on the beach or in Paris at night. We're the old couple. Never daring to truly admit what we feel, because we ignore those feelings but we know they exist. The two old buddies never committing. Friends in disguise. Playing a game in front of the others, in front of ourselves.
It's midnight now. I want to be on a bridge in Paris with him, finally saying what I think. Yet I'm too much of a coward to find the words. Like Harry having a heart attack and searching for air...
We're the next day. Maybe I'll be less of a coward. Just maybe.
