As I kept my eyes locked on Isabelle waiting for her response she peeled out from the light as it turned green and put her hand against her forhead. I could tell she was feeling stressed and she looked at me for a second as she put her hand back on the wheel and she had a look of compassion in her eyes.
"Don't you feel it too," she asked looking at me again.
"I thought.. I guess I just thought I felt something because I wanted to feel something there," I admitted.
"The first time I saw you I didn't ever want to look away. I didn't ever want you to stop looking into my eyes."
All I could do was look at her as she made this confession and feel the happiness trying to jump out of my throat.
"I scared myself. When you broke our gaze I realized that I had been gazing into the beautiful eyes of another girl. I thought about how I wanted to talk to you and about how my boyfriend was playing pool 10 feet away at the same time and I was torn," she said as we sped down the dark highway.
"You have a boyfriend. Why are you telling me this when I can't have you?"
I could feel the happiness and the pain combating inside of me. I foresaw the pain that could harbor in me if I knew she could care about me but chose someone else. At the same time I would be so happy just to know she could care about me.
"You have no idea do you," she asked looking at with amusement in her eyes.
"I guess I don't... Enlighten me?"
"That first night I saw you, I never thought I would see you again. I told myself that would be best because I knew then that I would turn my life upside down for you. I thought there was some kind of connection there. I never felt that before. I.. I think you feel it. But, my point is, that was the night Joey and me really started having trouble. Thinking about how happy I was just looking into your eyes I realized how dissatisfied I am with him. He knows things have changed. I just stayed with him because I had never seen you before and I thought I would never get to see you again."
"Wow," is all I could say and as we pulled up to a red light I touched her shoulder lightly to get her to look at me. "What are we going to do?"
Her eyes had a flash of fear in them before she regained her look of confidence.
"I know I want to try to be with you, Val. I won't let myself be afraid. I didn't tell you at first because I thought maybe I would make a fool of myself and that is not something I do well. I had to know for sure about you. Now I know... and if you want me, I'm yours."
