Today was the day, when my boyfriend of 3 years and many complicated events proposed to me in a very unusual and insane way. But how did that even happen? How did I end up with the hot free-runner after some intricate circumstances mentioned above? Well, let me tell you real quick.

It all started when I went to Tempest Free-running Academy and Corbin was my coach. I was 19 at the time. We really hit it off and it wasn't long until we became close friends. It took some embarrassing moments like failing to do some trick he taught me and falling off of things, or him, stuttering insanely while trying to start basic small talk when things would get awfully quiet and/or awkward between us, but your friendship seemed inflexible at that time.

I was at the academy almost every day, except the school days, then I'd go in the evenings. But now it wasn't because I wanted to practice my free-running skills, but because I liked seeing Corbin. I though it was innocent that I wanted to spend time with my, well, best friend, but the other employees and trainees started giving us looks and began to ship us. I didn't mind that at first as I knew they were only joking, but when I really began to worry was when I actually started feeling something for Corbin.

I felt staggered. How could I develop a crush on my best friend? It was a small feeling, but the fact that it was there made me feel weird and started butterflies in my stomach. These butterflies started this one day I vividly remember.

I was at the monkey bars, doing some flips, when I saw some girl coming up to Corbin and him... he kissed her on the cheek. I don't know why that made me loose my mind for a second and I completely forgot I was in the air. Before I knew what happened I was laying on the ground with my back aching like crazy. People from around came running towards me and asking me if I was okay. Corbin wasn't with them, which upset me even more. There were noises, chaos and blurry faces talking to me, but I couldn't form words out of it. Then.... I think I passed out.

But when I woke up in the hospital, sore as never, Corbin was right there. No more loud noises, no other people, no academy. Just him and I. He was sitting right by my bed and when he saw I was awake, he moved closer, locked eyes with me and said: "Hey baby girl, are you alright?" in a most caring and delicate voice. I... I couldn't respond. His blue eyes, shining like two diamonds, impaled me with some charming allure I've never seen before. His worried expression made me feel bad for being such clumsy ass, but it also made him look cute. He was... he was so. fucking. handsome.

It was the moment when I fell for him. It really made my intestines twist and turn that I couldn't tell him, but there was no way I was going to ruin our friendship like that. There was no chance he liked me back. So I kept quiet and started writing a diary instead, where I could express myself.

I knew that from now on, whenever I'll see him, I will freak out. Corbin visited me every day for a week in hospital, so I was getting used to the stomach butterflies when he was around. He was so loving and caring - he was like a different person, a true angel. He would bring me food, tell me news from the academy and cheer me up when I felt gloomy. My back injury was minor and it healed in no time, so I was back to the academy soon.

Then things started to get even more stressful. Corbin treated me like a porcelain doll, he assisted my every move and asked me if I was okay every 3 minutes or so. When other employees giggled at us, he literally freaking silently growled in anger. Why did he mind so much? Why was he so caring? I mean, I get it, he was scared I'd get injured again, but this wasn't normal.

I confronted him about it one day and I'm telling you... he gave me the reply I'd never expect. He said he was sorry and explained everything to me. The girl he kissed earlier was his friend who bested him at flipping duel the other day and in their bet the loser had to kiss the winner. Also he felt bad for not being there when I had an accident so now he was being extra protective. He also confessed that he really liked me and was going to ask me out, but the latest events were no friends with that. I couldn't believe it;my crush actually felt the same way. He then opened about how he was going to take me to the flash mob and then propose through this crazy event, but then he was bested and was ashamed of public performances since.
