so you want to know my love story?
I suppose I'll tell you then.
This boy went to my school since kindergarten. I never really paid him much attention until middle school. I talked to him in 5th grade, at our chorus concert. He was just laying on the ground being crazy :) it made me laugh. The next year, I talked to him online a little bit. And he ended up in my 6th grade fine arts rotation. We got closer, and had a little friends group with another girl. We argued over who he liked better, jokingly. But when we were just having a conversation without the other girl, he told me that he thinks of me as his best friend, and she's just a close second. He was my first best guy friend that wasn't a friendship set up by my parents. Anyway, that was the year I knew that one day, we would be together. That summer, his friend (who is two years younger than us) brought him to the pool- it was the same one that I go to. I had also brought a friend, so we all were just hanging out together. We were sitting in the baby swings, just for the point of it, and playfully pushing each other into the pool. I felt so happy with him it was unimaginable. When he had to go, and was walking through the parking lot, my friend and I decided to sneak up on him and try to scare him. He only laughed. After that, I wanted to hug him goodbye, but I was afraid to. I didn't know what my friend would think. We all knew he liked me, he had told me and shown me, but he isn't the most popular and has his crazy, random, spazzy moments so people think he's weird. But I'm also weird, and I think I need someone weird, that's the only kind of person who would put up with me.
Now, I'm in seventh grade. He wants to ask me out. My mom won't let me date because I'm only 13. She thinks I'm too young to be in love. But I know how I feel, and I feel awful making him wait for me, but he says he will. I'm glad about that. He's not someone I would let go of that easily. But still, I don't like this, I can't simply put my feelings on pause. I don't know what to do. I don't want to go behind my mom's back, but I can't carry on like this. Somebody please help me <3
