You Need Me

Freshman Year,
By a quirk of fate,
A beautiful coed
Sat next to me
In four of my classes.
She was an
Exotically cocky,
Flirtatious tease,
Who playfully
Tormented me
While I worked up
The nerve
To give her a call.
I finally did
Some three months later,
And true to character,
She responded
By proclaiming,
“You need me!”
Which caught me
Completely off guard
Even though
I had already come to
The same conclusion.
