So today I thought we'd talk a bit about Aaron.
Don't mistake him for the guy I spoke about in the "Guy who hates me." chapter, this is another one. To make it easier I will rename A to Bryan instead even though I don't think he will be mentioned much here.
This boy is different, he is an interest of mine, a love interest if you will.
The first time I met him was the first day of 1:st grade. He was in my class and was now my classmate.
He wore a black hoodie, of course with the hood up, black ripped skinny jeans, and was speaking to his friend Matthew. He was intimidating to me, I thought I would never hang out with him.
I necessarily wasn't interested in him at this time, that interest rather grew during our time hiking. To let the class get to know each other our teachers took us on a hiking trip where we walked a few miles to a cabin in the woods and slept there over night.
I can actually tell you the specific time where I had an eye for him as he was looking at me and was sometimes making faces, as I remember it.
During the hike we all got to know each other and I wasn't as scared of him as I had been i the beginning.
Next "event" I clearly remember was a PE lesson where we were going to have orienteering and me and a guy were going to go together since we weren't very sure if we could do it.
Aaron insisted that he would go with us and did so, we had a lot of fun and I can remember us teasing each other.
This may sound strange or cringe but I clearly remember a moment where we just looked at each other in the eyes for a short but long (long for just looking at each other) moment.
These memories are clear to me.
Another thing that is special about my experience with him is that I can see in his face that he has gone through some things. He is the first who I've met that I can see that so clearly and I believe that his experience cannot be compared with that of others I know.
To descibe Aaron I would say he is calm, cheeky, funny and like me, has that "poker face" personality. He is caring and I can tell he is a good person. Otherwise I wouldn't be interested in him.
I've had a friend, James, tell me that Aaron would be interested in me. He more percicly stated "Aaron wants you." which I don't belive very much.
Although, I always say to myself "he doesn't like you back" whenever I have an interest in someone.
I will forever wish and never truly believe.
I hope you had a better or good day.
