And there we were;;
sitting on his bed, working on our english assignment. it was
awkward being at his house, considering we stopped being friends
a few years ago. but even so, i can't say i didn't like it.
he stopped writing and said, just out of the blue,
"why aren't we friends anymore?"
he took me by complete surprise. i didn't know what to say. so i simply said
"because we just gave up trying."
"trying what?"
"Look, you're popular. you've been the football guarterback since i've known
you. you have girls who'd do anything to date you. you're a straight-A student.
to the untrained eye, you're basically the perfect teenage boy. but me? i'm
not popular, i just have my close friends. i'm not beautiful, maybe not even
pretty. i'm not great at sports or anything. i can barely pass the mile
run in gym class. i do alright in school, but i'm no genius. and guys
aren't exactly fighting to ask me out. we were total opposites. i'm not even
sure how what made us friends in the first place. but whatever it was,
wasn't strong enough to last long."
he looked at me seriously for a long time, taking in what i had said.
"I know why we became friends." he finally said.
"Why, then." i asked.
"because on the first day of middle school, when you walked into homeroom,
i almost stopped breathing. you were beautiful. you were wearing those faded jeans
and green tank top. you had you're hair in a ponytail and weren't wearing any make-up.
and you didn't know anyone in our class, but you still just came in and sat down next to me,
smiled, and said "hey, i'm erin, what's your name?" and i could smell your rasberry shampoo
and see the friendship bracelet on your right arm. and right at that moment, i knew."
"..knew what?" i asked, amazed.
"Right at that moment, i knew, that you were the girl i wanted to be
in my life forever <3
