Day Two: First Love

Michelle York- "The Mutual Friend"

 Okay... My first love... So, I'm in high school. I'm still young. As far as I can tell, my first love was chocolate or my daddy. I dearly love those two things. However, when someone made up this 30 day challenge, I'm confident that's not what they meant for day two. So, I'll just speak of the next best thing. I met him in computer tech class when I was a sophomore and he was a senior. I then developed THE biggest crush on him. He didn't even know I existed. We had only two, very forgettable, conversations all semester... Not the best way to tell the cutest boy you've ever seen that he's the cutest boy you've ever seen. Then, on the last day of school, (after writing my number down in his yearbook) I found we had a mutual friend (thank you, Michelle York!). Yorkie here told him that she wanted to have a movie day with him and a few other friends- which he agreed to. Of course she invited me, and I was happy to tag along, duh. We watched Up, Angels and Demons, and Star Trek (for the price of one in the theater). It was pretty much a blissful teenage dream- we held

Me and the Oakley

hands and everything! hehe Then we kinda lost touch. We got back in touch a few months later when he was called on a mission. We spoke and hung out quite a few times in the months previous to his mission. But that's not when, I felt, we really bonded. He had to come home for about 5 months after a short time in the mission field, because he... well... He broke his neck. I know. That's when I realized that I really like this kid, and I have no desire to date anyone else. Now that he's back on the mish, we write letters. As much as I can. And I know I'm young, but I'd still call him my first love. Because I do love him. I high school love him. Which basically means, that in this point in my life, that's the most I can care about another person while I'm still trying to figure out my own future... So here's to Elder Oakley Hill :) Love ya!
