Stalker Status

Prologue

Have you ever noticed how nice a strangers smile can be? Do you ever see a really attractive person at the store then get really sad because you'll probably never see them again? Do you ever wonder what a person would  be like if you got to know them? Yeah I do that all the time. Although I might have gotten lucky with one of the strangers that caught my attention my freshman year in high school, because yes, he went to the same school as me. It all started at the beginning of the year when I would walk out of  my third period computer class with my friend Eva. I noticed the same tall, skinny, pale boy, with over sized glasses and brown hair that was in a quiff-ed hairstyle. He was always in that hallway going to his next class. After a while I started calling him "Hallway buddy"  and always looked for him in the hallway. There was something about him that gave me butterflies. I absolutely fell in love with the simple being of his smile. I didn't know his name, or what he was like but just seeing him in that hallway made my day. 

 Later that year at a pep rally I noticed him sitting in the juniors section, it was kind of upsetting but I figured that I would get over my tiny crush. My friends being as weird as I am later informed me that the boys name was Ace. When freshman year ended I kind of forgot about my "Hallway buddy", but as soon as my sophomore year began there he was. Not in the same hallway of course but I managed to see him everyday on my way to my algebra class and on my way to chemistry class, I got to see him two times a day! Admiring someone from afar isn't necessarily easy because I wondered what if he  wasn't what I thought him to be? What if I was only in love with the idea of what I thought was him?

My sophomore year ended and he went off to wherever since indeed it was his senior year. When My Junior year began I looked for him and I realized he became the stranger at the grocery store that I wouldn't see again. Sometimes I would forget that he was gone and I would wait to see him, my heart would race as I waited to see his face in the hallway, then my heart would just sink when I realized that the two years of admiring my "Hallway buddy" were over. At least that's what I thought until I bumped into him in the ice cream section at Walmart two minutes ago!! AHHH!!
