'Richard': Number Fourteen

Can we talk?

Soon?

Please?

Everyone--Mack, Tay, my mom--wants me to analyze our relationship.

Mack and Tay think all we'll ever have is a friendship. Nothing more. Nothing less.

My mom wonders when we'll ever hold hands.

I don't want to.

I want us to be friends. Or more. Or something. I don't know what you want from our relationship. But I want to know. So that I don't have expectations beyond that.

But Richard, I don't know what I want.

What I do know is that I love hanging out with you. And I'm afraid that if we break up...it's not going to be the same.
