I was in sophomore year when him and i met, but before I give you the amazing love story part, of two young lovers who went through the bad, the good, and the absolute living Hell. Let me just tell you how everything came to be.
Freshman year there was a guy in my AC his name was Ty. I soon started to have feelings for him. We didnt really talk much. He was very sarcastic, and in a way a jackass. I guess people would have called him the "bad boy". Reason for that was he didnt always make the best choices, but it was all in fun and games. Ty liked to live life to the fullest, that was something i really liked about him.
Sophomore year Ty and I finally started talking again. Yes my feelings were still there and they were there till March. Ty and I were close. We used to call each other partners in crime and that if one went down so did the other. It was an amazing friendship and a very close one. He was my best friend.
In March when i was going through some really tough times with my depression and so was Ty he asked me to skip lunch with him and go to a class room with him, vance and some kid named Michael.
Funny thing about Vance. He was definitely the asshole of the group. Also like my big brother. He never showed feelings. I guess in a way you could say he was strong for that. We used to play fight, and always annoy each other, but if anyone ever hurt me or i was upset he was there for me, he would protect me from any harm... except from his punches and throwing me to the ground due to i was weak, he was strong, and he thought it was funny seeing my struggle.
Then there was Michael... He was quiet at first, but soon warmed up. The first time we actually had a conversation or anything was when we went into the classroom that we would hide in because if a teacher or someone saw us walking around the halls we would have gotten suspended. The classroom was actually a lab room for a biology class, i had the teacher my freshmen year and so did the rest of us so she agreed to let us hide out in there. In the room there was spinning chairs. There was only 3 and 3 of us. I let the guys have them so they could roll around and have fun. One day though i got to have the spinning chair and Michael asked if i wanted to try something. Being me i said yes. He got up from his chair and started spinning me i was going so fast everything was nothing but a blur. He stopped spinning me and he told me to grab the table and spin myself, who ever could stay on the longest would win. I lost of course because i felt like i was going to get sick. We sat at a table and laughed about how sick we were feeling. All of sudden the conversation started getting deep. About relationships and how we felt about the word love. He was broken, and so was I. Broken by a guy who lived across the world.
I was with this guy in Australia. Yes LDR for some of you who don't know what that is that stands for long distance relationship. Now i know some of you will have your opinions some good some bad,but hey its life.
After talking with Michael i asked him if he would be my best friend. He smiled and said sure. Later that day i added him on Facebook and started messaging him asking him how he felt after spinning and we talked about that and about music and other things we were into. The next day we go seat changes in geometry. I had no idea he was in my class till then. He sat right next to me. I mean come one we were in March, almost done with school and i had no idea this kid was in my class, or in my class last semester in history. We would talk non stop and text non stop. At lunch time I saw Michael and the guys and for some reason i ran up to him and just hugged him from behind. I scared him a little, then he turned around and i yelled "Hi best friend!" I didnt let go, and for some reason i didnt want to. I wasnt sure how i was feeling about him yet. I mean I thought he was cute, and funny, and had an amazing personality, but i still liked Ty and i thought maybe he would like me back.
Michael and I had only knew each other for less then a week, but i asked if he wanted to hang out. That Thursday he did. He rode his bike in the pouring rain from his house to mine. My parents were joking around saying things like "that boy must really like you" "you guys dating" "watch you two be together". When he got to my house we sat on my couch playing video games and not really talking much. I was honestly nervous, because i was starting to like him. When he was playing the video game or looking at his phone i would just look at him and i couldn't help but smile.
It was funny, he tried texting his dad to see if he could stay the night at my house. My parents wouldnt have cared because we were just friends, they would let my 2 guy friends stay the night because we were so close, but his dad said "hell no! Are you crazy" so he went home. The next day he said he would come over before I went to work if i wanted to i told him of course i want to see my best friend. When he got to my house he sat in on seat i sat in the one next to him. His arm was on the arm rest and i layed down so my head was laying on the armrest that his arm sat. I keept slowly moving closer till i was basically laying on his arm and i could feel him moving closer to me.*looks over at the spot and smiles* My heart was racing. My mom walked out in the living, i didnt bother to move, neither did he. She gave us a puzzled look, then laughed and walked away.
3:20 came along and i had to leave for work, so he went to go get his bike, but it broke from the rain. Rhonda (my other mom. Yes my parents are gay) tried helping him fix it. My mom pulled me aside and asked if we were together, does he like you, do you like him. I told her i liked him and she started to embarrass me, so i walked away and into the garage with him. My mom though had the nerve to knock on the window. Michael and I both looked up and she motioned for me to look away. I guess when that happened she asked him if he liked me. Now thats embarrassing....
We couldn't fix his bike so we put it in the back of the car and just drove him home. When he got out of the car so did I,and I said "best friend i want a hug." He told me he planned on it. I hugged him really tight and once again that feeling of not wanting to let go came back. So i didnt, but then I realized I was going to be late for work so i did. I wanted to kiss him so bad. I didnt.
