Getting Over You

Annabeth: First "boyfriend"

For a month or two I went on just watching him. I tried not to look like a stocker, but I couldn't help but think about how much I was going to work, to get him to at least talk to me. Or at least catch him looking at me.

Every time I walked by him, I would do sometime. Like Flip my hair, smile, or even talk to one of his friends he was with. If I saw him I'd make my friends walk with me that way. Anything to make him see me, and notice me. It was all I could do at that time.

Finally after waiting forever, as it seemed, I caught him looking at me. His beautiful eyes, looking at me. After all my work I finally got what I was waiting for. When he saw that I noticed he just smiled and looked away. I was getting closer.

That whole day every time we saw each other we would look at each other and smile. Our friends all noticed and just laughed. I'm not sure what exactly his friends told him, but mine kept telling me to go and ask him out. I was scared and didn't want to.

The next day at lunch his friend Austin walked over and asked me out for his other friend Miles. I'd never been asked out before, because it was fourth grade, so I was so overwhelmed I said yea.

I could tell he was mad. Just looking at him. He wouldn't even talk to me when I said "Hi". There was no way I could blame him. Knowing that if one of my friends asked him out, I would be mad.

Miles and I went on "Dating" for about 9months. I guess it was dating but wasn't. We never talked, and when you're in fourth grade what is dating? At my school it was just saying, hey look I'm so cool. In fourth grade you don't really date. So Miles and I ended up breaking up. Well kinda breaking up. Since we weren't really dating, and it was really just us being little kids thinking that we were cool.

At the time it was cute I'll admit. I thought it was real. That, that was how you dated. We ended up growing up and knowing that it was wrong. I also learned that, that just pushed me farther from finally getting him to ask me out. I was that much farther away from my very date, my very first kiss. Even my very first LOVE.
