Still to this day, I love replaying in my mind, and talking about how Chris and I came to be what we are today. How simple and small it all started out, and how just by a chance, we were brought back together for a shot in the dark for something bigger than what either of us thought would ever turn out to be.
Chris and I first met in high school. We were in some class together. Don't ask me what it was, because we were always more interested in talking about cars, and goofing off in class with our best friends. We had formed our own little click, and naturally, never paid attention. I was in a relationship, and so was he, but with other people. Chris and I were just friends. I would of course make my comments to my best friend Tara about how phenominal his "badonkadonk" looked in his baggy jeans. And he very secretly, had a crush on me that was simmering on the back burner.
Throughout high school, we stayed friends. We even hung out together. Him with his girlfriend, and me with my boyfriend. After we graduated, like a lot of friends, we lost touch, me, still oblivious to the fact that I was leaving footprints across his heart. I guess I should have gotten the hint when I saw him a couple years later as I was driving. He practically ran me off the road just to get me to pull over in some random parking lot just to talk to me and say "hi".
Four years after high school, I get a text through Tara saying that Chris O is on the hunt for me and wants me to call him. I blow the idea off because of the randomness. A few weeks later, I get a text from a random number... Guess who? Yup. Stalkerish... I know! The memory of that butt in those jeans in high school drove me to agree to go out for old times sake, and I have to say now, and Im sure this whole wedding thing backs me up in saying, I am sure glad that I did took him up on the offer!
It all started out so simple, and neitherr of us thought way back then, that we would be where we are at today. Happy, together, with a beautiful family, and on our way to getting married. |
