I was staring at the shelf of breads ahead of me, trying to make the trip to the store longer than it really had to be, when I met him for the first time.
"Hey, are you okay?" He asked while putting his hand on my shoulder, making me jump into the air. I was too engrossed in thinking about what had happened this morning to notice that someone was behind me. When I turned around to say yes, I saw the most dashing guy I have ever seen before, but then again, I don't go out much, so how would I know.
"Do I know you from somewhere? You look very familiar?" I quickly grabbed a loaf of bread, trying to rush out before he realized that I was the nerd everyone walked all over in school. I wasn't in the mood to be pushed to the ground today when it already happened this morning at home. 
"No, I think you are mistaking me for someone else," I said as I brushed past him.
