I Remember My First Love
It was the summer before our senior year, his best friend and mine were dating. We knew one another, had been in a class together but never really connected with each other. That all changed rather quickly. I can remember sitting across the table from him at his friend's house, I felt his eyes on me and I looked up, saw his blue eyes intensely gazing into mine. I saw a hint of a smile cross his lips, and that was it, I was hopelessly smitten. It was an deliciously wonderful summer :)
We parted ways a few months after our senior year began, he broke it off and I never really knew why at the time...I do now. We were both on staff with the school newspaper, we worked closely together and the amazing thing was that our friendship grew. He became the one person I went to when I needed to talk, and he did the same with me.
Throughout the years we have remained extremely close friends. He is married, two kids, and a teacher at an alternative high school in the southern part of the state. We reminisced recently about our relationship, school, and life in general. He is an incredible man, and I am blessed to have his friendship.
