You+the person above you? (Wave, date, bang, pass, etc)

wave

We are in med school. You look good in your scrubs - curves in the right places defying the baggy nature of the clothes; me in my white coat, I look dashing; intelligent, bright, energetic.

I would catch myself staring at you; then you would catch me. You'd blush and look away. I'd have to go back to what I was doing, knowing I need to pay attention.

Unable to get you out of my mind, I would look back up and find you looking at me! I'd blush this time, and look back down at the cadaver I'm cutting up.

Soon enough the MD would say that it's time to put down our bonesaws and scoop the detritus back into the cadavers. We exchange a few more awkward looks as we go about the grisly task.

Then, the humdrum routine of disposing of the gloves, cleaning up; we all begin to crowd out.

I stop you, and pointing to your shirt say "you've got a bit of red on you". I dab at it smiling with my kerchief. You smile shyly. I ask you out for a nice seafood dinner and you say yes!!

I miss the date because I passed out drunk playing video games. My alcohol problem eventually leads me to dropping out of med school.

In a twist of irony, many years later you perform my liver transplant. Time has been so unkind to me that you don't even recognize the bright boy that once was.
