Parachute

"It's just a little crush, not like I flinch every time we touch." the radio played. Funny it would play that one at this moment, she thought to herself. Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn't real in any form or way, it was merely another headless adventure. It didn't make sense to feel like this at this age and not for the second time in your life. This is not how it goes, everybody said. You only get to be reckless once and after that fall you'll tread more carefully and everything will be more thought through. You won't just step over the edge, you'll find a ladder and climb down safely. But why was she ready to put on a parachute in that case?
