*Music reccomendation while reading this: "Childhood memories" by Luxid* -written in Alexis' pov- We met in high school, backstage during the musical productions in my freshman year. Honestly, never saw this man in the hallways... EVER. Only during rehearsal after schools. I was acting and he was the stage manager, since he was the stage manager, I assumed he was a senior, so I shyly liked him from afar. I would hang around after rehearsal ended (making my parents or car ride wait a little longer, sorry mom) just to see or talk to him if I had the chance. Fast forward to my sophomore year and when rehearsals got to the point where crew was needed and I saw him as stage manager again, I was like... "did he repeat a grade?" I was so convinced he was a senior last year, when in actuality, he was a junior last year. So, I hype myself up thinking to myself, "this is my chance!" but I was still so shy... I told one of my "friends" at the time that I liked Alex and she was so supportive saying I should ask him out and so on, but behind my back she flirted with him to confuse his adolescent, not fully developed brain that he liked her instead of me (when he had liked me since the year before as well). Once that debacle was over with, he asked me out in the middle of lunch in front of my whole lunch table! *gasping in shock face* And well, the rest is history... I'm so glad I met him, even though at times it feels like our brains and interests are completely different (he's very business, money driven and logical; while I am free willed and loud in tune *singing) I still feel as though my heart and life has been overtaken by my love for him. Thank you for reading <3
