Snow and adolescence are the only problems that disappear if you ignore them long enough


It snowed today. Heaploads of it. It started to flurry a bit at school today, but i wasn't thinking it could become blizzardy in a matter of minutes. We had snowball fights galore, i got pegged in the face by my friend. Thanks hon. But although the burn of frozen water mixed with warm cheeks was feverishly present, i didn't think of it. I didn't care is more like it. It was just a mere reminder that i was in reality, no way out. I was taken away by the powdery consistency of the snow, that ultimate snowball making texture. But there were other things that i was distracted by. Him. Them. The 3 of them.
No its not like that. No love triangles at all. Gross. But i was sort of caught. I was held in a moment that i thought only existed in romantic comedies and twilight flavored books. It was priceless.
And as the snow came down, i looked at all three faces, wondering what could be seen. Looking for an answer as if it were just supposed to fall out of the sky like the flurries. I glanced at all of the faces, they looked back.
And as the snow fell, sticking to my eyelashes and their hoods and hats, the moment drifted away like tears in the rain.
