Those Brown Eyes

Those brown eyes, I couldn't stop looking at those brown eyes.  I was sitting on the campus quad eating lunch with Linda who I had been dating.  She had just introduced me to her friend, the girl with the big, beautiful, brown eyes.  "This is my friend, Trudy". Dorthy Parker says, "men don't make passes at girls who wear glasses."  But she never saw the way these glasses framed these dark brown eyes.  I knew that day I wanted to ask her out, but how do I do that without being rude to Linda.  Linda and I were friend, but my feelings stopped there. so I took my time, meeting her at lunch with Linda, "running into her on campus and finding time to talk", and talking out the psych class we had in common (different sections).  It took me two months to get the courage to ask her out. We end up going to see Paint Your Wagon.  I was smitten.  She was so easy to be with, I could talk to her without feeling awkward (my normal state around girls). She was okay with just being together without talking.  She was warm and open.  What I liked best was the way her face lit up when she saw me.  I was smitten.
