Dear Zachary,
That October, when I was 15, you started dating Sydney again. She broke up with you right before Christmas. You were really upset, because you liked her. You liked her A LOT. After that we started REALLY becoming best friends. Random people would ask all our friends, and us, if we were dating. "We are JUST friends!" We would always say. And it was true. We were.
That December, the unexpected happened. We were at Sam's house, one of our friends, in his addition. It was FREEZING! He and his girlfriend, Mason, who happened to be one of my really good friends, we're on the couch making out. We were both cold so we had a blanket over us and under the blanket, you started gently rubbing your thumb across my thigh. It was strange. I almost wanted to tell you to stop, but I didn't want them to know what was happening... So I just sat there with my eyes glued to the screen. This was the start of everything. This was the start of my life, spiraling in everywhich way without my control. It was also, the REAL start of us.
