I sat there
Watching, observing
Such a serious expression
Seeming without personality
And then
Something flashed across the screen
The corners of his mouth began to curl up
And a smile broke across his face
Destroying all sereneness
Leaving no trace of the pensive expression
Then his mouth opened
And out came a laugh
Echoing in the once silent room
It was in that moment
Then I thought I knew him
And I was drawn to him

Then the smile dissapeared
And he looked as if he was pondering the world's problems once more
Only now, I am intrigued.

How about "once" instead of previously???
and I suggest "Expressions" as a title.
Anyway, your style was good.  Keep writing.
