Then the smile faded as he went into his reply:
The story doesn't stop there. A few weeks passed and then I met my angel. My beautiful, beautiful angel. She was the best friend of Zac's girlfriend at the time. Her name was Wendy.
~FLASH~
"So Tay, are you gonna stand gawking at her all night or are you actually gonna go talk to her?" Isaac asked.
Taylor glanced up at him. He shrugged.
"She probably doesn't want to talk to me." he murmured.
"What makes you say that?"
Taylor shrugged again and didn't answer.
"Ahh, you're just a big wuss."
Again Taylor refused to answer, so Isaac went over to the others and talked to them instead. Taylor just watched them from the hallway.
At one point Wendy looked over in his direction and smiled. She gestured for him to come over but he just pulled back further behind the wall.
~FLASH~
She had the most beautiful smile I'd ever seen Moira. There was no way I'd ever be good enough for her. No way.
~FLASH~
"Taylor likes me?" Wendy repeated, raising an eyebrow. "Yeah, right."
"He does." Patty, Zac's girlfriend, insisted.
"Then why doesn't he ever talk to me?" Wendy asked.
"He's just really shy."
"Believe me Tay likes you." Zac added with a grin. "He's just being stupid. Not that that's unusual."
~FLASH~
It took me a good couple of weeks more before I finally got enough nerve to say hi to her. And she didn't treat me like dirt or anything... she actually liked me back! I hadn't been that happy in a long time, I can tell you. I would have done anything for Wendy, my angel.
