the meeting

It was mid December, 2012.

School was letting out soon for Christmas break and "the world was ending".

I remember when I first stumbled across you on Facebook. You had been arguing with a mutual friends ex-boyfriend over something stupid. I was supposed to be a mutual asset in this situation but if I'm being honest I was more on our mutual friends side.

I remember hesitating to tell her that I thought you were attractive, that you peeked my interest, because I had told myself (more like made a promise with myself) that I wasn't going to go after a guy ever again, not after what happened with my last boyfriend. But there was something about you, something that piqued my interest. So I finally found the guts to tell her how I felt, and soon after, I sent you a friend request on Facebook.

I honestly didn't think you'd add me back or even give me the time of day so I prepared myself to be rejected by you before I even tried. But when you added me back and liked my status for a "to be honest" I was shocked. I didn't really know what to say so I said the usual.

"Tbh- you're cuuuute . we should taaalk :3"

Little did I know that was going to change everything. Everything.

Later on that night, literally right after I posted that on your wall, you messaged me.

"Hey"

That was all it took, after that, I was hooked.
