"Kissing Frogs"
By: Whitney C. E.
Introduction
Ever since my first date with Shay I was so sure he was the one. It just felt like it was so right, but I was so wrong. It all started last year when I first saw the new kid searching the halls, He was so cute, and I couldn’t resist introducing myself. So, I walked up behind you and I started our future together. For better or for worse? I still don’t know...
“You lost?” I asked with a hint of confidence. You turned around and smiled, “Yeah... Do you know where Mr. Fredrick’s class is?” you said looking more confused then words can describe. “Actually, thats my next class” I said taking your hand leading you up the stairs and down the hall. All I can think about is ‘is this to bold?’ or ‘is this right.’ You interrupted my thoughts by saying “I’m Shay”, I smiled “I’m Erynn.” We walked as my pace slowed down, “Thats a hot name” my face must have been so red because I felt myself blush. We must have talked all week.
Later in the week, it was confirmed, you liked me back. When we reached the door I dropped your hand and walked to my desk in the back, you took the desk beside me. Everything was going my way, so far.We talked the whole study hall period until the bell rang and I stood up, and then you grabbed my hand. Everyone was staring at us, you must have known that I wasn’t the most popular person, everyone was staring and laughing. You leaned in and kissed me. Shock rushed over my classmates faces and mine too... We just met that week. It was going very forward, we had had a total of 3 ‘dates’ at the Pizza Plaza in town. You absolutely loved pizza, plain cheese pizza, just like me.
