Part III: The Dance

Well, I left off saying that I didn't get any that day, but our relationship as friends when to the next stage: becoming more than friends. Well, the next day, we hit up the tuxedo shop so we could pick out a suit for me. I got a matching gold tie since her dress was gold. We began talking on the phone a lot more so we could better get to know each other before the dance.

Then, the day of Homecoming arrived and this is how the day consisted as far as I recall to my short term memory. First, I picked up my corsage for my date Jaina. Then, I washed my car before I picked her up. It was fixed up at the time so my car consisted of a Buddy Club body kit, 18" gunmetal rims, a 7" in-dash tv screen, AEM cold air intake, Carbon FIber Hood, and don't remember the brand name of the exhaust, but everything was pretty boned out in the matter of only owning my car for about a year. Well, we headed over to this restaurant which was close to her house. Then, I got ready before I picked her up. We ate at Thai Spices. They had some pretty good food, which I ordered as super spicy. Boy, was it HHOOOOOTTT!!!! But good. Next, we arrived at the high school and continued the fun filling night. We danced the night away and the best thing was that I made her boyfriend super jealous. As soon as the dance was over, I ended the night by dropping her off, and giving her a kiss. But, the thing is everything ended there.

I didn't call her for a year. Why? Because I wasn't ready for a relationship. Stupid because I passed up a beautiful girl to continue being single. So I had occasionaly bump ins with her at parties. We had this awkwardness when we were around each other, and one time at a party, my half black/filipino friend named Angie told us to dance with each other. I was pretty buzzed and so was she, so we danced with each other. The party soon ended and we left the party in opposite ways.

Then about 2 years ago during Wintertime, I saw her at the bowling alley. This was when everyone went to the bowling alley to chill. It was the hot spot in Mira Mesa. I swear everyone was there. But I ran into her that night, and at the time, I had long hair. I was pretty fucked up that night off some hennessey v.s.o.p. But I had the courage enough to come up and talk to her. It was the hormones kicking in. Well, not really. A friend up mine named Jason was talking to her, but I decided to cock block and have her for myself. Selfish, but the game has to be played.

Well, the night ended and when I got home, I decided to call her because I couldn't get her out of my head. I seriously had this dream about her after I got off the phone with her. I ended up asking her "if she wanted to chill." So I picked her up that night and took her out for dinner and a movie. We ended up eating at Olive Garden and watched Meet the Faukers. There was no one in the theater at the time, but the movie was funny. She actually didn't know that we were going on an actual date. At the end of the night, I kissed her again.

I told her that I had a present for her. I arrived at her house to drop off the present, and she was meaning to "drop me" after she received the present, but her mom asked me to come inside. I couldn't refuse, so I went in. I gave her my present, she opened it, and she liked it. It was a Hello Kitty Hamper for her dirty clothes. I remembered that she loves Hello Kitty because she had all this shit in her room. Well, I was pretty much there the whole day until her friend Chris invited her over to play pool at "Stixs". Jaina invited me over with her and I decided to come along.

After a great game of pool, we arrived home early in the morning, but my car was still at her house. So I walked her to the door, but before leaving, I asked her if I could use the restroom. I had to go pee pee. I then went out the door and asked her in these exact word," are we going out or what?" She replied, "...I guess." Not really sure exactly. But I confused her because she was still wanting to "drop me" meaning that she didn't want to be with me. But she called her friend Troy and told him the story and asked him what that meant. He told her that we were going out. So I called her the next day and we chilled again. So I got away with murder....hahaha...just kidding, I picked her up using trickery!!! I'm a genius I tell you, a genius! I got her, and now I'm never going to let her go. And that is how the relationship began. 2 years, 7 months and still going.

I end this story on our 2 year, 7 month anniversary. Happy Anniversary babes, I love you!

Fin.
