In high school, there was this HB7 that was a year younger than me. Lets call her Katie. Me & my friends used to always check her out. I had this little crush on her but we barely knew each other.

Anyways three years later after going to college and coming back home for the summer time, me & my friends go to a crowded bar with a dance floor. ( High school was 4 years ago ) At the begging of the night me and my friend spot Katie from a football field away and we sort of walk past her. She looks like she isn't drunk and she yells at my friend and I " OMG I haven't seen you guys in forever " We talk a bit and she returns to her friends and we return to ours.

Later on in the night me and my friend are sitting at our tables drinking our beers and Katie and her friend walks and stumbles across our tables and then looks at my friend then straight at me and then blurted out " Me and blah blah used to be so obsessed with you in high school " then scurries off back to her friends.

After hearing that, I sat there silently in shock. How did this girl I barely talked to in high school let alone didn't even hang out with be obsessed with me? So said I fuck it. Better late than ever.

A little while later me and my friend go talk to a long lost friend and I position us in front of where Katie is sitting; not directly in front but to the side of her so if she looked at me she would have to turn her head, which would be noticeable to me. Not too close and not too far. But as I was talking to this long lost friend I could see her keep turning her head glancing at me and then turning back quickly to her friends.

Me being in the "fuck it" mode I just stare at her waiting for her to glance at me again. Next thing you know she glances and our eyes lock. 1 Hold. 2 Hold. 3 Hold. She smiles and waves. I nod and raise my beer up to her & continue talking to my friend. We eventually go back and sit down take a couple shots.

This liquid courage is starting to get to me and again I say "fuck it". I stand up walk straight to her table while shes with her friends. Its loud enough in the bar where I have to talk 3-4 inches away from her ear for her to hear me. I ask her " So, when are you leaving to go back to college " She answers " Wednesday " I say " Well, why don't you give me your number so we can go out somewhere sometime before you leave then? " I could see her blush cherry red with the fattest smile. She then runs her hand along the side of my face and says, " I would but I have a boyfriend. " My heart breaks, but I can't let her see that so I quickly reply within of the instant she says that and say to her " So what? We can't hang out just as friends? " HOLD. HOLD. HOLDD. Again, cherry red blush, bites her lip and whips her phone out and hands it to me all the while saying " Yeah, we can hang out as friends " I quickly save my number in her contacts and then text my phone from her phone. I give the phone back to her, and tell her " Alright I'll see you later. " and walk off.

My friends tell me its time to go hit up another bar, so we leave and I go take a smoke. I feel so invigorating, to have come back with a quick reply like that after telling me she had a boyfriend. If this was high school and she laid that bomb on me I would have definitely choked. So that was the highlight of my night. I'm still new to this whole thing so I can't wait to #close, k-close and eventually f-close with a lot of different other girls!
