Feeling the Love

Reunited

Principles of Business... Sounded like an EXTREMELY boring class.  But I actually liked it. For more than one reason.

I walked into class, sat down in the spot given to me, turned around to see if I knew anybody in there... and there he was. Since he was no long a JROTC cadet he was no longer just Hall. Now he was Silas.  ( I love his name.) He sat almost directly behind me, and within talking distance. It meant we would have the same lunch together, Would have to work in groups with him, and I could ask him for notes or anything missed and he could do the same. 

At first we didn't talk much to each other. But as time passed we got more comfortable with each other. We would make side jokes to one another in class, we sat together at lunch ( I use to sit all by myself), and we worked great together in groups. We became good friends. Eventually I got up and started sitting next to him in class, and clinging to his arm in the hallways so he didn't run away.  I know sounds really clingy right? But he never pushed me away. And he actually started expecting it. 

Time passed fairly quickly and we both started noticing changes in each other. We started realizing that each others lives weren't easy. So we started talking outside of school. Started texting. At first we didn't talk much, and then it turned into talking all the time; whenever we could. I really liked talking to him. He started helping me, made me smile, made me want to start going to school. Eventually I was well again that he didn't have to worry about me. I was glad when he stopped worrying about me, I hated seeing him worry. I hated seeing in any form of pain. 

One day he came to me with a problem that was really getting to him. He was worried about his sister and all I could really do was listen and tell him that no matter what it was all going to be okay and turn out alright in the end. And it did thank goodness. But I think that was the turning point in our relationship.

He was my best friend. and I was his. But if I am to be honest with you and with myself I also had a major crush on him. Since JROTC days I had a crush on him. But there was no way I was going to tell him that. 

More time passed and I suppressed my feelings. But I guess I was still to obvious or something because of the blue one day he texted me..

"Do you like me?"... Of course I refused to lie.

 So I said yes...
