Dare Me

It all started with a dare, but then again, most love stories do, don't they?

When my best friend convinced me, practically bribed me, to wave at that camera, I knew something was going to happen. After all, signing at a mall security camera? Something was bound to happen, even if the guy on the other end was asleep and had donut crumbs clinging to the corners of his mouth. I pushed down that fear though, and went right ahead, after all I wouldn't let some obese security cop fall in love with me. That was then though, and now? Now I wonder if I should have thought it over more, should've wondered about the consequences, should've not watched so many comedy and horror movies. Maybe I should've actually paid attention when my friends popped in one of their cliché chick flicks. Because really, what experience do I have in love? None. And when it comes to drop dead gorgeous guys? I'm basically screwed.
