I woke up in the morning and as far as I could tell it was just a normal Saturday. Little did I know that in a few hours my life would change forever, heck, I didn't even realize it until a couple months later. I got up, got dressed, and headed to the studio just like every other Saturday. When I got there I spent a few minutes talking to Eevee, she helped me with my ballet class I taught every week. I can't even remember what we were talking about, whatever it was was quickly overshadowed by what she was about to ask me.
Right as I was moving to go downstairs to meet the children she turned to me and said, "Hey, do you wanna go to prom with Aidan? My mom told him he should ask you so he asked me to do it". Pretty much the only thing I knew about him was, he was Eevee's older brother, he liked video games, and she was jealous of his abs. We had never met, and if we had we hadn't spoken. Yet here was his little sister asking me to go to prom with him, cause his mother told him to no less.
That was not exactly how I pictured being asked out for the first time going. Not at all how I pictured it, and yes I was almost 17 and had never had a guy express any interest in me, that I was aware of at the time at least. But, that's a different story, back to this one. I was, shocked to say the least. I'm not exactly sure what happened but I'm pretty sure my reaction consisted of me saying what? Pretty much collapsing to the ground, and laughing. I didn't think it was funny, I was in shock of what just happened.
I feel I should add, I am a hopeless romantic. I always wanted the fairy tale ending. I wanted the first guy I ever dated to be the last. So, even though we had never met, I had heard a few things about him and pretty much started developing a little crush right then. At that point it might have been just a crush on the idea of him, but it was a crush nonetheless. I was sitting there in shock, without an answer for her, and a thousand thoughts running through my head. On top of that, I still had to go teach 13 six year olds how to skip and do demi plies. That. Was an interesting morning.
