I lean my head back
on the car seat
as we drive home.
With my eyes closed,
I search for a memory
that will make me
smile.
And then,
I remember the night
my life changed
forever.
The silver bleachers
filled with kids
in black and red,
cheering the football team
to victory.
It was a warm September night.
The best kind of Friday night.
My favorite kind of high school night.
He was two rows up.
Behind me.
Watching me.
Or so he told me later.
Cali, Jessa, and Zoe
went to get us food.
I stayed
to save our seats.
And that's when
he made his move.
"Hi."
"Hi."
"I'm Jackson."
"I know.
Everyone knows who you are."
His cheeks turned
the color of watermelon.
His eyes greener
than the rind.
He was so cute,
from the top of his sexy bald head
to the tips of his PacSun shoes.
The way he looked at me
made me quiver
and quake.
It was a good thing
I was sitting down.
My legs wouldn't have
held me up.
