So. Brandon and I had that conversation over the summer. We were in seventh grade going into eighth, 13 years old.

I felt sad a lot. I would cut sometimes.

My mom wouldn't let me do the marching band. Andrew and I had to quit because our parents thought that it interfered with religion classes.

It turned out that it didn't interfere.

I would hear about all the fun those marching band kids would have. It was horrible feeling left out.

Then one day, Brandon's friend Nick told me a secret.

He said Brandon liked me.

I thought.."No way...". I forced Nick, whom I hadn't known too long, to tell it to my face.

So anyway, one day while Brandon was at band, Nick set up a video chat and told me that Brandon liked me.

I was ecstatic. Nobody has ever... liked me...

We had gotten really close, too. He was the only person who I've told that story too.

On 7/16/13, he asked me out. This was going to be the start of an improved life.

But of course, I cannot always be happy.
