JOHN
August 23, 2011
I'm not sure if I was in a good mood, or if the lighting was just really freaking good that day, but she looked absolutely beautiful. Somehow, in that English classroom, at eight in the morning on the first day of school, I began crushing hard. She was tall, had brown hair, and a great complexion. I had no idea what to make of this new found crush of mine, hell I'd never had a girlfriend before (which was fairly pathetic, if I do say so myself) and now I suddenly wanted to have one? Either way, I did. And there she was.
Why I thought she was beautiful, I had no idea. I had several other friends that were far prettier. I was in a play with a girl that was prettier. There was just something about this one. We had never said one word to each other, and I was certain that she had to be my girlfriend.
I decided that I had to talk to her. Luckily I knew one of the people she was sitting with. I walked over. "Hey, Brittney, long time, no see." I didn't even want to talk to her, if I'm being honest. "Hey!" she said, "I want you to meet Mila, she just moved here from Lancaster."
Holy crap, she did it for me.
"Nice to meet you, Mila"
Smooth, keep it smooth
"Nice to meet you too" she said
"How are you liking JP"
"Its pretty chill, I'm just glad Brittney goes here"
This is going great.
"That's cool, how do you know Brittney, if you don't mind me asking"
"Oh, well we've known each other forever"
Hey, a mutual friend
"Oh, well I haven't known her that long, but she's pretty cool"
"Pretty?" said Brittney
"I think she's great," Mila said, "She even introduced me to my boyfriend."
You gotta be kidding me.
"Oh, that's cool" I said, trying to hide my sadness. Luckily, the bell rang, and class started. Thank God for saving me from that situation. I was pretty devastated. I barely knew her, but we talked so fluently, like we were made for each other. Even though she had a boyfriend, I knew that I was going to make her mine. It was a decision that would haunt me for years to come.
