"Wait for the boy who pursues you. The one who will make an ordinary moment seem magical. The kind of boy who brings out the best in you and makes you want to be a better person. Wait for the boy who you can be the best friend to. The only one who can make you drop everything to be with him at any time, no matter what the circumstances. Wait for the boy who you can make smile like no one else and when they smile you know they need you. Wait for the boy who you want to show off to the world and your friends. And most of all, wait for the boy who you will put up at the center of your universe, because that's where they belong."
