The Perks of Being a Wallflower - Pg 23

I look at people holding hands in the hallways, and I try to think about how it works. At the school dances, I sit in the background, and I tap my toe, and I wonder how many couples will dance to "their song." In the hallways, I see the girls wearing the guys' jackets, and I think about the idea of property. And I wonder if anyone is really happy. I hope they are. I really hope they are.
