he stopped himself in front of me in the crowded hallway and we let our hands press together for a few seconds before i pulled him into a quick hug. his sweater was still wet from our walk in the rain with sergio and clare, and our later dance to "lady t" by crazy penis on the front walk of the school. and then we slipped away, our hands sliding down, down, down, the others arm, until our hands fit together like puzzle pieces for a moment, and we both walked away.
